LOS ANGELES, March 24 (UPI) -- Zsa Zsa Gabor's daughter has asked for conservatorship over her mother, saying the 95-year-old woman is being kept "increasingly isolated" by her husband.

Francesca Hilton, Gabor's only daughter, filed the petition with the Los Angeles County Superior Court Tuesday, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Gabor has been bedridden since breaking her hip in July 2011 and the subsequent amputation of most of her right leg.

"My mother's husband has increasingly isolated my mother from others who have been close to her," Hilton said in the filing. "Before she broke her hip, my mother and I spoke several times every day. Since she broke her hip, her husband has removed the telephone that used to be by her bed."

Gabor's husband, 68-year-old Prince Frederic von Anhalt, said he has kept his stepdaughter away because she brings negativity into the home.


"I want smiling people in here, happy smiling people," he said.
