<p>The coverage of this weekend's brouhaha at the Double Seven club, when former Hawaiian Tropic Zone owner <strong>Adam Hock</strong> <a href="http://www.observer.com/2012/02/was-paris-hilton-and-stavros-niarchos-to-blame-for-bottle-service-brouhaha-and-prince-casiraghis-broken-jaw/">brawled with a team of jet-setting socialites</a> (including <strong>Prince Pierre Casiraghi</strong>, <strong>Stavros Niarchos</strong>, <strong>Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld</strong>, and <strong>Diego Marroquin</strong>), left out one pretty important detail: how did the model girlfriends of the two groups react?<br />
<!--more--><br />
Jessica Hart, the Victoria Secret/<em>Sports Illustrated</em> supermodel who is currently dating shipping baron and <strong>Paris Hilton</strong>'s ex Mr. Niarchos, apparently lunged at <strong>Natasha Poly</strong>, the supermodel wife of Mr. Hock's friend and cohort for the evening, <strong>Peter Bakker</strong>, after the boys were left and bloodied and bruised and Mr. Hock was arrested.</p>
<p>According to a source at the <em>New York Post</em>, Ms. Hart screamed at Ms. Polly "<a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/manhattan/model_meow_melee_GSz3T9SIAIdnEpWroPTiLM">Your husband’s a loser! F--k you!</a>"</p>
<p>Since then, Ms. Hart has taken to Twitter to <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/model-jessica-hart-club-owner-adam-hock-started-fight-hurt-prince-pierre-casiraghi-article-1.1026627?localLinksEnabled=false">denounce Mr. Hock and his posse</a>:</p>
<p>"Ha! It’s going to be so pleasurable when the truth does come out and he’s exposed as the freaky liar he is," she wrote, according to The New York Daily News, regarding Mr. Hock's exclusive interview given to the <em>Post </em>yesterday.</p>
<p>"Although, I have to say, I am getting a little pleasure watching him run to the press, squirming and lying in desperation."</p>
<p>Since then, Ms. Hart has <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/1jessicahart">apparently deleted her tweets</a>, perhaps in reaction to Mr. Hart's lawyer, who responded to the <a href="http://scallywagandvagabond.com/2012/02/supermodel-jessica-hart-goes-on-twitter-declaring-adam-hock-is-a-freaky-liar/">virtual attacks by saying</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>"I expect her to come in and tell the truth and then, if she’s going to resort to name calling like calling my client a liar, she will open herself up to defamation and libel."</p></blockquote>
<p>Ms. Polly and her husband, we assume, are too busy getting ready to move into <a href="http://www.observer.com/2012/02/supermodel-natasha-walks-into-nouvels-chelsea-dream/">their Chelsea dream apartment</a> to engage in a Twitter flame war.</p>

<p><strong>Updated: </strong>An earlier edition of this item suggested that Ms. Hilton was at the club at the time of the assault. She was in Las Vegas, celebrating her birthday and <a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/paris_hilton_wins_30000_celebrating/295605?cmpid=rss-000000-rssfeed-365-topstories&utm_source=eonline&utm_medium=rssfeeds&utm_campaign=rss_topstories">winning a lot of money</a>. <em>The New York Observer</em> apologizes for the error.</p>
<p>Today's biggest headline in the <em>New York Post</em> wasn't about <strong>Jeremy Lin </strong>or Cardinal <strong>Tim Dolan</strong>. How refreshing! Instead, the story of the day is about a spat at the Meatpacking Club Double Seven club on Saturday night, between former owner of Hawaiian Tropic Zone, <strong>Adam Hock, </strong>and <a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/prince_roil_highness_XDtHAzbhPNgJUhrBFIGqTJ#ixzz1n2mnPjQs">a group of very young adults with very old money</a>. The night ended with a sprained shoulder for Mr. Hock and an alleged broken jaw for  24-year-old <strong>Prince Pierre Casiraghi</strong>, the grandson of <strong>Grace Kelly</strong>. Mr. Hock is now being charged with four counts of third-degree assault.</p>
<p>Fights between socialites and bar owners are usually relegated to <strong> </strong> Page Six. So how did <strong>Emily Smith</strong>'s team make Saturday's punch-up front page news? The answer might lay in a throw-away reference to the rest of the prince's posse.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<blockquote><p>Hock, 47, said he was just defending himself and the bevy of models seated at his table after Casiraghi, Paris Hilton ex Stavros Niarchos and scenesters Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld and Diego Marroquin became “belligerent” and “aggressive” because he was at a better table than them.</p></blockquote>
<p>Without getting into the he-said, he-said of the ordeal (Mr. Hock claimed that the kids were drinking his friend's bottle service, while party promoter <strong>Nima Yamini </strong>said that Mr. Hock "just went nuts") take a look at some of those names. <strong>Paris Hilton</strong> and her ex-boyfriend <strong>Stavros Niarchos</strong> were always a terrible combo: those two can't <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20165235,00.html">enter a bar</a> without it basically exploding <a href="http://www.hecklerspray.com/paris-hilton-shanna-moakler-in-battle-to-the-death/20065183.php">into a flurry of fists</a>. <strong>Vladmir Restoin Roitfeld</strong> (the son of <em>French Vogue</em>'s former editor, <strong>Caroline Roitfeld</strong>), <strong>Diego Marroquin</strong>, and Prince Casiraghi, on the other hand, might be well-known party-goers, but their names aren't usually tied to bar brawls.</p>
<p>And reading the testimony of events, it did seem as if the original beef was between the shipping heir and Mr. Hock. While the first <em>Post </em>story<a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/prince_gets_pounded_CiOgUCrsIbYDXNBWj1c9SN#ixzz1n2s72DNb"> assumed Prince Casiraghi as the instigator</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Hock, 47, had been partying with friends — including Double Seven owner  Jeffrey Jah, hairdresser-to-the-stars Joel Warren and catwalk stunners  Natasha Poly, Valentina Zalyaeva and Anja Rubik — when Casiraghi  strolled over to their table with shipping-scion pal and Paris Hilton ex  Stavros Niarchos III and two other men at around 2:30 a.m., witnesses  said.</p></blockquote>
<p>...the front-page story today had Mr. Hock switching his story over <a href=" http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/prince_roil_highness_XDtHAzbhPNgJUhrBFIGqTJ#ixzz1n2sgRigq">to blame Mr. Niarchos</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<div>“My friend Peter Bakker [supermodel Natasha Poly’s husband] <em>(editor's note: yes, this would be the same <strong>Natasha Poly </strong> <a href="http://www.observer.com/2012/02/supermodel-natasha-walks-into-nouvels-chelsea-dream/">who just purchased a posh condo at 100 11th Ave</a>)</em> was there at  our table with his wife and two other top models. I went to the  bathroom, and when I came back, I could see there was hostility between  Peter and Stavros Niarchos,” Hock said.</div>
</blockquote>
<div>
<div>Not that Mr. Hock himself should be let off the hook, considering the history of women suing him and his partners for using <a href="http://www.businessmanagementdaily.com/26453/suit-times-square-waitresses-had-to-serve-more-than-drinks">the Hawaiian Tropic Zone as a brothel</a>. So why is the focus on the prince?</div>
<div>Well, because unlike Hilton, Hock, and Niarchos, the name Casiraghi had yet to be dragged through New York City's muck(racking). It was inevitable that with friends like his, he'd eventually be cold-clocked by the gossip columns. All they needed was a good left hook, and they got one in Mr. Hock.<br />
