The estranged wife of rock star Jack White has filed a restraining
order against him, saying she fears for her safety.
British model and singer Karen Elson said in divorce filings that he
was threatening her and she fears for her and her children's safety.
Elson married White - one half of the White Stripes until a 2011
breakup - in Nashville in 2005 and they have two children.
They separated in 2011 and Elson filed for divorce last year.
She filed for a temporary restraining order on July 17, it was
approved by a judge pending a court hearing on August 29.
Elson said in the filing that White has a violent temper, sends her
emails laced with profanity and calls her derogatory names.
It is believed the two have been in disagreement for months over custody issues.
Elson currently cares for their children, aged five and seven, but
White reportedly wants to be more involved.
White has supposedly been unwilling to enter family counselling and
has been "pressuring (Elson) about the settlement terms for divorce".
In one quoted email, he wrote: "I'm not extending this anymore. And
we're not getting lawyers involved to rip me off."
White's publicist said there was no immediate comment to be made.
