Elizabeth Leeds is a 43 year old wife of Wall Street private equity executive Jeffrey Leeds, the 69 year old founder of Leeds Equity Partners which deals with education and information services.

Central to the conflict is the incendiary charges by Jeffrey Leeds filed in the court filings throughout Florida, Wyoming and New York. He charges Elizabeth with a long term extramarital affair with a 66 year old Miami businessman Alberto Alejandro Tawil, citing the fact that the relationship even led to a pregnancy. The filings claim that in the course of the alleged relationship, Leeds says his wife misused significant marital assets, such as over 275,000 invested in ventures of Tawil and salaries of dozens of domestic employees and what are referred to as erotic gifts. They also have a protracted legal battle over the multimillion-dollar properties worth approximately 100 million such as expensive houses in Manhattan, Palm Beach and Southampton.
