We reinvestigate the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey (CLASS) gravitational lens B1152+199 using archivedHubble Space Telescope(HST) data and Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) data. A consistent luminosity ratio within effective radius between the host galaxy and the X-galaxy is measured fromHSTtri-band images, which leads to a mass ratio between the two galaxies asrb∼ 2. To determine the role of the X-galaxy in the lens system, we modelled the dual-lens system with constraints from the VLBI-resolved jet components and theHSTimages. The 8.4-GHz global-VLBI data currently provide the most stringent constraints to the mass model, especially to the radial power-law slope. The optimized models for this two-image three-component radio lens favour a steeper-than-isothermal inner slope. The jet bending in image B was also investigated and it turned out to be rather a misalignment than a curvature. The goodness-of-fit indicates that the role of the X-galaxy is crucial in the lens system if three pairs of resolved jet components are to be fitted. When we imported the optimal model from radio constraints to optical modelling with theHSTtri-band data, the optimization kept the consistency of the optimal model and successfully reproduced the features observed in theHSTimages. This implies that the diffuse emission discovered in theHSTimages is actually a detection of the secondary lensing effects from the companion lens.
