... Mr. Bronfman sought the restraining order in Kings County Court after it was reported Ms. Arulpragasam was hoping to take their son to London where the Grammy-nominated artist was born in 1975 and lived prior to meeting Mr. Bronfman in New York in late 2007.
The couple made headlines internationally in May, 2008, when they announced they were engaged. To many, it seemed an unlikely pairing Mr. Bronfman, raised on New York’s Upper West Side, is the son of billionaire Edgar Bronfman and his first wife, actress Sherry Brewer. He is the great-grandson of the late Samuel Bronfman, founder of the Seagram distillery empire that was headquartered in Montreal. Ms. Arulpragasam, daughter of a Sri Lankan-born Tamil activist, is famous for her support of the Tamil Tiger and Palestinian liberation movements, among others.
In 2009, she urged U.S. President Barack Obama to refuse his Nobel Peace Prize “like John Lennon sent back his [order of the British Empire].” Earlier she claimed she was “a bit beyond being an artist who says, ‘Give peace a chance.’ Part of me is like, ‘Give war a chance.’ “
