I don't know who he is but I looked on Twitter too.

Had I seen it in the paper that these two people,previously unknown to me,had had an affair,I would nor have even glanced at the article.

Now the injunction has been taken out I have made a point of finding out who it was and have looked him up on Wikipedia.

Has he shot himself in the foot I ask myself.

Had he been an accomplished philanderer he probably would have known to keep his head down.

The name has been announced in the news; the matter is still an allegation.

Ryan Giggs -

Allegations, not proven.
However, if it were true, then maybe his wife wouldn't want the matter publicised.

I know, I know. I knew yesterday. ;)

I was just overcome by Muffy's suggestion of a romantic interest in Steven Tyler.

EEEeeeeeewwwww!

Never been particularly taken with Johnny Depp, either ... so I hesitate to even investigate who David Ginola is ...

I think, Claire, that most of us knew who it was.

I don't know what David Ginola looks like now, but in his day he was stunning....with lovely hair :-)

LOLOLOL My interest in Steven Tyler is not in any way romantic ..it's much more basic than that *sniggers*

I'm getting really hacked off with people calling Imogen Thomas all the names under the sun...it's always the women who get bad mouthed whilst the men are just classed as *naughty boys*

HE was the one who made vows to his wife ..HE is the one that *allegedly* cheated. She was a free agent and has had to swallow being accused of all sorts of unfounded things because he hid behind his legal team. It's appalling..and now people in breach of this injunction can apparently be put into prison without anyone knowing STILL to protect this man ! PAH. I thought I lived in a democracy. GRRRRRRRRR

lol @ Muffy's basic interest :) Muffy, I get irritated with the whole name calling thing too - even if the whole story is true, none of us know what goes on between a couple of people just because there's a lot of stuff published about them - or not published:)

BC, David Ginola is still in fine form :)

Thomas has a good point:

(The Telegraph, forgive me)

______________________________________________________

Imogen Thomas, a former Miss Wales, said she had never intended to sell her story about an alleged six month affair with the married player.

However, the 28-year-old said she was angry that his name had been protected while she had been subsequently named and shamed.

The footballer gained an injunction at a private hearing before Mr Justice Eady at the High Court earlier this month.

Speaking on ITV’s This Morning’s Miss Thomas said she did not have as much money as the wealthy sportsman.

“I had no intention of speaking about the man,” she said. “I just wish that my name was protected.

Why should a person be able to start an action naming someone, and disclosing exactly the same details as that person does not want disclosed about themself?


In, er, affairs like this, I tend to think each is as bad as the other.

Each knew they were doing the dirty on someone innocent.

If people want to sleep with multiple people, they need to not get married (or marry someone who doesn't care), or get unmarried. Pretty simple.


Can we talk about Arnold Schwarzenegger now? ;)

Rich, famous, powerful men and their lower-status women on the side.

Yech.

My all-time most hated is Eliot Spitzer, the crusading Attorney General and then Governor of New York State. He impressed me in his early days. Presidential material, I thought. Then he took on the big banks -- before the crash, he was fixing to expose them and their practices -- and he had to go.

But to give the bad guys the ammunition by carrying on with call girls ... what kind of a stupid narcissist do you have to be, eh?

(Was it Bobtanian told me to go get the documentary Inside Job, about the banks, in which Spitzer appears? No.1 did get it, we just haven't got around to watching it yet!)
