On August 11, a New York judge ruled that the Gossip Girl alum, 46, must return her children, Hermés, 8, and Helena, 6, to their father, Daniel Giersch, in Monaco. (Though the parents share legal custody, the kids were sent to the European country in 2012 to temporarily live with the German businessman, 41.) By the end of that day, Rutherford’s brood was on a plane to France with their paternal grandmother. “What the judge did . . . was shocking, illegal and abusive,” she said in a statement to Us. “I did my best to comfort the children.” BATTLE ABROAD Now, her hope lies in the hands of the Monaco legal…
