Paris Hilton’s ex Paris Latsis and current boyfriend Stavros Niarchos were reportedly involved in an ugly row at a recent awards ceremony. The two love rivals nearly came to blows at top Los Angeles nightclub Privilege after the American Music Awards last Tuesday night.

According to reports, Latsis, Paris’ former fiancé, launched a tirade of abuse at Stavros, who Latsis suspects was romancing his former love while he and the hotel heiress were still an item.

One onlooker said: “Stavros and Latsis were yelling at each other near one of the VIP tables. Paris Hilton had to drag Stavros away”

A second reveller claims a pale-looking Stavros, who appeared to be drunk, was later seen throwing up in the washroom area.

The source added to America’s New York Daily News newspaper: “He puked everywhere. He and Paris finally left the party after she got him out of the bathroom and cleaned him up” However, Hilton’s representative Elliot Mintz has denied that Stavros and Latsis confronted each other, and insists the pair had a civil conversation when they met. Mintz said: “I was with them all night, and I saw no evidence of that. Stavros has a friend who looks just like him maybe it was him”
