'Wonderful husband': Georgina Chapman shares Instagram photo of flowers from her Harvey Weinstein - days after he avoided charges 'for groping model'

  • The designer shared the snap to Instagram on Tuesday, her 39th birthday
  • She was reportedly 'furious' after Italian model Ambra Battilana, 22, claimed Weinstein had groped her during a meeting last month
  • On Friday, the Manhattan District Attorney's office announced it would not be bringing charges against the millionaire producer

Harvey Weinstein's wife Georgina Chapman today gushed online about her 'wonderful husband' - just days after it emerged he would not face criminal charges for allegedly groping an Italian model.

In an apparent effort to push past the scandal, the British-born fashion designer, who turned 39 on Tuesday, shared an Instagram image of a large bouquet of flowers he had bought for her.

'Thank you for my beautiful flowers!!! #wonderfulhusband #birthday,' she wrote alongside the photo.

The birthday gift comes four days after her Hollywood producer husband learned he will not face criminal charges after Italian model Ambra Battilana, 22, told police he had groped her.

Battilana had claimed that the 63-year-old father-of-five touched her breasts and put his hand up her skirt during a 'business meeting' at his Tribeca Film Center office in Manhattan on March 27.

The Manhattan District Attorney's office investigated the model's claims but announced last Friday that it has decided not to prosecute Weinstein.

Weinstein, who had always maintained his innocence, could have faced misdemeanor charges of forcible touching or sexual abuse if the allegations proved true.

Battilana reoprtedly refused to cooperate with authorities for four days after the complaint, which led to speculation she made the allegation in a bid to try and land a part in one of Weinstein's films.

Once that 'pipe dream' came to nothing, she decided to cooperate and pursue the criminal case, according to sources.

Weinstein founded Miramax with his brother Bob in 1979 and is worth an estimated $200 million. 

His wife founded the luxury label Marchesa. They have been together for seven years and have a young son and daughter.

Last week, a source told the New York Daily News that Chapman had been 'furious' following the reports and had been intent on continuing with her work and avoiding further embarrassment to her young children.

On Instagram, she has shared photos of her work in the run up to Bridal Fashion week.

'The countdown begins,' she wrote alongside a snap of some of her designs on Monday. '5 days until the reveal!! Excited!! #marchesa #ss16 #bridal.'
