Stalker Alert

Retired NBA star Reggie Miller has been chasing after the girlfriend of Alex von Furstenberg [son of designer Diane von Furstenberg] and Alex went to extreme measures to put Reggie in his place. What had happened was, Reggie saw Alex' girl in a Malibu supermarket and waited one whole hour for her to leave the store so he could get her number [according to her] then followed her up the Pacific coast and later bombarded her with 53 text messages and countless phone calls. After realizing Reggie was the creepy stalker type, Girlfriend von Furstenburg got her lawyers involved and drew up a restraining order that was never filed, but was enough to get Reggie to back off. Then to add insult to humiliation, boyfriend Alex von F flew this banner around Malibu beach lest Reggie didn't get the message. You can go to Diary of a Hollywood Street King to read the never filed restraining order by clicking here.
