Kelly Rutherford has been granted sole custody of her and ex-husband Daniel Giersch's two children following a legal battle that spanned two continents, paving the way for the kids to return to live with their mother in the United States.
The 46-year-old Gossip Girl alum and her ex, a 41-year-old German businessman, divorced in 2010 and initially shared custody of son Hermes, now 8, and daughter Helena, 5, both American-born. Since 2012, they have been living with their father in Europe. On Friday, a judge granted their mother sole custody. Giersch has not commented.??
