According to the complaints filed by Phil Collins, Orianne and her new husband were “threatening, implicitly and explicitly to prolong their unlawful occupation of the property through force”. It continued with “an injunction needed to end an armed occupation and takeover of the Phil Collins home by his ex-wife and her new husband”.
When Phil Collins sued Orianne, he also expressed his concern over his memorabilia including multiple awards and instruments kept at the Miami mansion.

He added that he will use every single remedy to get her out of the house.
