Sorry to say that infidelity and stardom seem to go hand-in-hand. While many stars have navigated the pitfalls of Hollywood and steered clear of any cheating rumors, others have not fared as well. One day they are the most loved guy in America and the next they are headed to rehab for a “sex addiction”, all thanks to a headline on a weekly magazine.
Kat Von D has taken the public step to call her former fiance Jesse James a cheater on Twitter writing, “No, my next book will not be about my cheating ex. There are way too many positive and inspiring things to write about instead.”
It’s no surprise that the West Coast Choppers CEO would cheat on the tattooed reality star. He has a proven record of cheating having faced down infidelity allegations following his divorce from his Oscar winning former wife, Sandra Bullock, but he’s hardly he first cheating celebrity to make headlines. Here’s a look at a few of the stars that faced infidelity scandals in recent years:
Tiger Woods: Everybody loved America’s favorite golf star right up until a late night fight with his then wife landed the star in a car crash and in some major hot water. Following the car accident in which his former wife, Elin Nordegren, had to break the back window of the car to free him, his many girlfriends started coming out of the woodwork. A short stint in rehab for a sexual addiction did nothing to save either his reputation or his marriage. The couple filed for divorce in 2010.
Arnold Schwarzenegger: Who knew that the Governator was a womanizer? The actor turned politician kept his affair with his former housekeeper and their mutual child a secret from everyone for more than a decade. No-one was more surprised by the news than his wife Maria Shriver who quickly left the star and filed for divorce.
Kelsey Grammer: All seemed well with the “Fraiser” star and his then wife Camille in the premiere episode of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”. The star packed his bags and headed to New York without his family for a stint on Broadway. Shortly thereafter the reality star found herself locked out of their city apartment with a new woman moved in. Divorce soon followed with Camille airing their dirty laundry on the Bravo TV hit show.
