Celeb NY rabbi facing divorce from 4th wife after sex scandal expose
August 14th, 2010 - 5:42 pm ICT by ANINew York, Aug 14 (ANI): Marc Schneier, a New York rabbi to celebrities, was caught kissing another woman in Israel and now, his fourth wife wants separation from him.
Schneier, the founder of the star-studded Hampton Synagogue, was slapped with a shocking photograph of him kissing another woman.
Tobi Rubinstein-Schneier - whose complaint claims her husband impregnated his lover - this week petitioned a Manhattan court for a legal separation from the high-profile rabbi, who is friends with Russell Simmons and makes the scene in the Hamptons.
“This behavior by an Orthodox rabbi is an embarrassment to Orthodox Jews,” The New York Daily News quoted Susan Bender, a lawyer for the rabbi’s wife of nearly four years.
Rubinstein-Schneier’s private eye snapped the pictures of the rabbi with Gitty Leiner in Israel.
Leiner is a stunning speech pathologist and a congregant at the Hampton Synagogue.
Rubinstein-Schneier claimed that he continued living in the couple’s upper East Side home from February to April, even as he carried on with another woman.
He’s also accused in the court papers of putting Leiner up last summer in housing across the street from the Hampton Synagogue.
And in July, the suit says, the wife found out her husband had gotten Leiner pregnant.
The complaint seeks to get payment for Rubinstein-Schneier’s health care, insurance and cover costs on homes in Manhattan and Westhampton Beach. (ANI)
