Harris, 42, was also a former senior vice president of rapper Diddy’s Combs Enterprises.

The July 9 fight also involved OnlyFans model Danielle Pertusiello and her friend Amanda Collado. The pair said they had left a rooftop pool party at Encore at Wynn Las Vegas and were heading to the bathrooms near the casino when they claimed they were ambushed by two women.

According to a police report, officers reviewed security footage of the brawl, which showed the moment the woman and her friend were tapped on the shoulders before “all four females start throwing punches at each other.”

The video also shows hair-pulling and shoe-tossing.

Pertusiello said Harris was with her friend and happened to recognize the model from behind and allegedly attacked her.

According to Fox News, Pertusiello said there was tension between the women months earlier when Harris allegedly confronted the model over the phone.

The model alleged Harris had hired a private investigator who discovered her husband, Mike Harris, 51, was sleeping with Pertusiello.

“I told her if it’s not going to be me, it’s going to be someone else,” Pertusiello said, admitting to the affair.

Harris’ husband denied the relationship.

“I have nothing to do with this,” he told Fox News. “Two women got in a scuffle at a hotel. It had nothing to do with me.”

In the video, the skirt of Pertusiello’s two-piece dress was hiked up throughout the melee, revealing her thong the entire time.

The fight grew increasingly violent before a security guard and another bystander stepped in to pull the women apart.

Pertusiello and Collado were issued citations for disorderly conduct and released.

Police attempted to interview the other woman in the fight, but when they went to her room, she had already checked out and did not answer her phone, according to the report.
