Behbahani, who performs under the stage name Behani, has been busy over the past year promoting her reality television series about her journey towards becoming a recording artist.On Friday morning, Pratt’s counsel Allan Myers, KC, argued in court it was necessary to hold a preliminary hearing to resolve whether an independent trustee should be placed to oversee the trust until the trial, given there were already concerns about the management of the trust.Heloise Pratt and her partner Jon Stevens at the 2023 Melbourne Cup.Credit: Eddie Jim“And it’s not only a distribution of money under the trust. It is, for example, the companies making loans,” Myers said.“We’re very concerned about that. Indeed, the evidence is Mr Waislitz’s girlfriend will be getting loans from the trust, and they’ll call them loans – though they aren’t – until they work out what else they could possibly call them. So we say that there are matters that require the position of the trustee to be clarified,” Myers said.
