band. “Kelly was complainin­g every single day ... I said if their marriage is not working and if she doesn’t want to be with him, she should just leave him,” she said.

Ms Landry is seeking an AVO against Mr Bell, claiming he was “financiall­y mean” during their five-year marriage and on two occasions physically assaulted her.

On the final day of the hearing, the court heard allegation­s that Ms Landry would drink on her own and on at least two occasions to excess, despite having a serious heart condition.

Ms Karoglan said she was employed as a housekeepe­r/ nanny for the Bells from January 2015 to March 2016.

Earlier, Mr Bell’s long-time friend, multi-millionair­e hotelier Peter Calligeros, claimed Ms Landry was “well on her way” to being drunk the night she got into a marriage-ending fight with her husband on November 18 last year.

Mr Calligeros said he met the couple earlier that evening at a restaurant.

He gave evidence that Ms Landry had a cocktail there and then drank champagne on a boat trip to another friend’s house. At the house he said she drank more champagne.

Later, the couple argued then wrestled for Ms Landry’s phone, which she says left her with a bruised arm.

Mr Calligeros also gave evidence that Ms Landry was intoxicate­d on December 28 during the celebratio­ns for her yachtsman husband’s win in the Sydney to Hobart race.

The court heard that night she accused her husband of having an inappropri­ate relationsh­ip with his fellow crew member, Footy Show star Erin Molan. Ms Molan’s fiance policeman Sean Ogilvy also gave evidence yesterday.

Magistrate Robert Williams reserved his decision on the AVO until May 18.
