Bar Refaeli, world-famous supermodel and former girlfriend of Leonardo DiCaprio, is under investigation by Israel for allegedly dodging paying taxes on millions of dollars of income, the Guardian reports.

The 30-year-old model is also accused of not declaring free cars she received from Range Rover and Lexus in exchange for photos with the vehicles, and for receiving free rent at her apartment in Tel Aviv, among other things—all of which should have been subject to income tax.

Refaeli's mom, Zipora, is also being investigated as part of the case, though the pair deny all allegations.

"We contend that this is a civil problem regarding the topic of who is an Israeli citizen and everything that is associated with this," their lawyers said in a court document.

Refaeli and her mother have both turned in their passports and are banned from leaving Israel for the next six months without authorization from the government and shelling out a $65,000 bond.
