"Leighton Meester&amp;#039;s mother Constance has claimed that she was attacked with a bottle by the Gossip Girl actress.  Earlier this week, it was revealed that Leighton has begun legal action against Constance over accusations that she used money intended for her sick younger brother on cosmetic surgery instead. Constance has since filed a countersuit against her daughter over an alleged domestic violence incident in December 2010 in which Leighton is said to have &amp;quot;repeatedly [hit] her with a bottle&amp;quot;, reports TMZ. The document, which was filed in LA County Superior Court on Monday, claims that Leighton had to be forcibly pulled off of her mother by her younger brother after becoming &amp;quot;crazed&amp;quot; during an argument.  Constance also alleged that the $7,500 (\u00C2\u00A34,600) a month that she was sent by Leighton was not meant to be used for her younger brother&amp;#039;s care but instead was a gift, meant to serve as &amp;quot;a settlement for all the money she helped make for her daughter&amp;quot;.  Leighton can next be seen in Monte Carlo alongside Selena Gomez. Watch the trailer for Monte Carlo below:   "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
