She explained that Sarkozy, whom she married in 2015, had terminated the lease on their shared residence without her consent.

In her petition filed Wednesday, Mary-Kate stated: ‘I am petrified that my husband is trying to deprive me of the home we have lived in and if he is successful, I will not only lose my home but I risk losing my personal property as well.’ 

In her divorce papers, Mary-Kate asked the court to uphold the terms of the prenum she and Sarkozy signed.

She is seeking the continued use of their home in The Hamptons home, their apartment in New York’s Gramercy neighborhood and an apartment on East 49th Street apartment in the city.

She is also requesting that her ex continue to provide her with health and dental insurance, PageSix.com reported.

She had explained that she is unable to ‘look for another apartment right now, let alone retrieve my separate property belongings and am gravely concerned my husband will dissipate, dispose of and / or secret.’
