Divorce lawyer Dominic Barbara, wife in a marital splat - er, spat
BY ANN GIVENS

Dominic Barbara, who has made a mint litigating other people’s messy divorces, got into his own marital spat earlier this week when his wife threw a plate of spaghetti at his head, police records show.

The divorce and defense lawyer, who helped make Long Island infamous by representing the likes of Joey Buttafuoco and Jessica Hahn, suffered a small gash on his forehead when the woman who is both his third and his fourth wife broke the plate on his head, according to police and court documents.

The couple ended a five-year marriage in 2007, and remarried each other that same year. Barbara, 63, would not comment on whether they are planning to divorce again now.

Leslie Barbara, 44, also a divorce lawyer, was arrested and charged with second-degree menacing after the incident Monday.

She spent the night in jail, and Dominic himself bailed her out Tuesday morning, both sides said.

But she was promptly rearrested when police said she violated a restraining order by going back to the couple’s Glen Cove home, court documents show.

The usually flamboyant Barbara said only, “I hope she gets the help she needs.”

In the courtroom, however, Barbara is known to pull outrageous stunts to win settlements for his clients.

“I am literally bigger than life,” he once told Newsday. “The reputation is that if you try a case with me I’m going to — kill you.”

Leslie Barbara’s lawyer, Randy Zelin, of Westbury, would not discuss the spaghetti-throwing incident except to say that he plans to fight the charges and that he is “confident that at the end of the day justice is going to be done.”

Zelin said a misunderstanding led to his client’s second arrest. He said a Glen Cove City Court judge gave Leslie Barbara permission to have her car picked up from the couple’s home. He said in his client’s exhaustion after a night in jail, she misunderstood and went to get the car herself. Police arrested her there.

Howard Stern has miles of praise after Beth Ostrosky completes NY Marathon

Daily News

Flushed and sweating - but still gorgeous - Beth Ostrosky spotted hubby Howard Stern at the finish line of the New York City Marathon on Sunday and pumped her fists into the air.

Tears of joy glistened in the shock jock’s eyes and a smile flashed across his face.

“She made it through!” Stern whooped as Ostrosky ran toward him.

“Oh, honey, you earned this,” he said when she collapsed in his arms. The normally lewd Stern, in full loving hubby mode, hugged and kissed the former model he married last month.

“Isn’t she beautiful?” he gushed as daughter Ashley, 15, also hugged her stepmom.

“This was the happiest day of my life,” Ostrosky said.

Stern woke up early Sunday to get his wife ready for the big race day, making bagels loaded with peanut butter and bananas.

“She ate a ton,” he beamed.

At the start of the race on Staten Island, she met her running partner and the team of 20 she assembled to raise money for the North Shore Animal League - $295,000 in all. Stern, 54, said he’ll make it an even $300,000.

Ostrosky, 36, expected to complete the five-borough course in about five hours, but ended up finishing in an amazing 4 hours and 15 minutes or just under 9-3/4 minutes a mile.

Last week, the Daily News worked out with Ostrosky as she entered the final stretch of her six months of marathon training.

An encouraging e-mail from a friend, retired tennis great Monica Seles, helped calm her jitters Saturday night.

“She told me to use my nervousness to keep going,” Ostrosky said. “I just kept thinking about seeing Howard and Ashley on the finish line.”

Stern even went back to the finish line to get his exhausted bride’s medal - and then put it around her neck.

“I have got to get her home now,” he said.

“We’re going to celebrate with some sushi and some pasta,” she said. “A lot of sushi and pasta.”

Ostrosky was not the only A-lister running the marathon.

Actor Ryan Reynolds, who also completed the marathon for the first time, seconded Ostrosky’s gluttonous plans.

“I am going to allow three to four hours for my scary marathon face to go away and then I am going to eat my body weight in raw dough,” he told The Daily News as he collected his medal.

Reynolds was met by his mother, Tammy, on the finish line.

His new wife, actress Scarlett Johansson, had opted to cheer for her hubby anonymously from the crowds along the course.

Reynolds ran on Michael J. Fox’s “Team Fox” as a tribute to his dad, Jim, who, like Fox, is battling Parkinson’s disease. The actor raised more than $79,000.

“While I was racing I saw Michael J. Fox on Fifth Ave. and I gained 15 pounds of goose bumps,” he said. “I thought a lot about my father and about Michael while I was running. I’m running for those who can’t.”

Beth Ostrosky, Howard Stern’s bride, is running in the NYC Marathon

Between planning a wedding and a honeymoon, moving apartments and training for the New York Marathon, Beth Ostrosky hasn’t had a lot of downtime recently.

“I guess you could say I am a little busy,” the newly minted Mrs. Howard Stern admits before an early morning run in Central Park that will be one of her last before the big race Sunday.

The 36-year-old former model, who is attempting to complete the marathon for the first time, somehow manages to look picture-perfect going for a jog at 7:30a.m. in Central Park. Howard, meanwhile, wakes up at 5 a.m. every morning to get ready for his radio show, so 7:30 is actually a late start for this house.

Because her hubby can’t join her most mornings, Beth found a running partner in longtime friend Jane Notar, who, with Beth’s urging, also decided to run the marathon for the first time.

“Howard has been doing the shorter runs with me, but I would have died on the really long runs if I had to do them on my own,” says Ostrosky.

Notar agrees. “It’s the best time to gossip. It isn’t good to be on our s-list the week we have the really long runs.”

Following the New York Road Runners Club first-time marathoner schedule, Beth and Jane began running in July.

The four-month training program involved a slow buildup of mileage that went from 3 miles a day to the peak of 20 miles that she hit three weeks ago.

“The 18-miler was so humbling for me,” admits Ostrosky, noting how her husband joked that he was able to watch a movie, have lunch, walk the dog, play chess and have a nap while she was out training.

In addition to pounding the pavement, Ostrosky works out five times a week at Reebok Sports Club with personal trainer Clayton James.

“Since she is getting such a leg workout, we really focus on her arms and her core,” explains James. In an hour, he puts Ostrosky through more than 20 dumbbell exercises, lunges, situps and pushups that have her sweating and crying for mercy.

“Are we having fun yet?” James calls out as Ostrosky balances in a plank position for 30 seconds.

The only response is a grunt.

Ostrosky may be working out like a fiend, but diet-wise, she is living every woman’s dream.

“I can seriously eat anything I want,” she says. “Anything. Howard is amazed at how much food I have been putting in my body. We went out to dinner the other night and I had a pasta dish, chicken parm and a whole loaf of bread with olive oil.”

Ostrosky has cut out one guilty pleasure: candy.

“I used to be addicted to sugar. Gummy bears, Swedish fish, hot tamales, you name it,” she admits. “The day I decided I was going to run, I cut out sugar completely and my whole body transformed.”

Marathon training was more than enough bridal boot camp for Beth as preparation for her Oct. 4 wedding to Stern, who she has been with for eight years.

The couple had a lavish Hollywood-style ceremony officiated by Mark Consuelos (husband of Kelly Ripa) at Manhattan’s ritzy Le Cirque.

“It was so perfectly timed,” says the bride, who wore a belly-baring Marchesa gown. “Because this is the only time in my life I’ll be this physically fit and look this good.”

All the proceeds raised by Ostrosky’s run will benefit the North Shore Animal League’s mission to find permanent homes for more than 20,000 orphaned animals. Her team (called “GoBethO”) of 20 runners has raised more than $280,000 - $50,000 of which came from celebrity chef Rachael Ray.

“I’m not gonna tell you I’m going to be really fast,” she says of the challenge that lies before her Sunday. “My goal is to not come in last place.”

After that, she admits, she will probably hang up her running shoes. Her husband, it seems, is hurting from all the time she has devoted to her training.

“He is suffering,” she says. “He wanted to have sex last night but I was too tired.”
