Les Mis Understudy Attack

I haven’t really been on this board in a long time but there is something that I remember but can’t find information on so I thought I’d come ask here.

Back in my very deep Les Mis phase, I remember reading an article about a boyfriend of an understudy who attacked a lead, Tonya Harding style, because he wanted his girlfriend to have more stage time. The only other thing I can remember about this is that it was a European production.
 

Does anyone else know what I’m talking about or am I just mixing this up with another story or did my brain just completely make this up (very possible)? I wouldn’t ask if I actually didn’t think this happened

I was/am a huge Les Miz fan (I had European postal-mail pen pals and we often talked about the productions they saw), and I have no recollection of this.

That’s it! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I googled it and found the exact article I read (here). I had found the article in a form thread about backstage drama which also talked about the Stephanie Stephenson Les Mis thing. I must have mixed the two up, I read the thread years ago. Thank you guys so much, I knew I could count on y’all
