Everywhere you turn these days, there seems to be a Hollywood cheating scandal staring right back at you. From the recently-revealed shocking affair between Good Morning America co-hosts Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes — that story is still developing! — to Kanye West’s possibly manic-induced new allegations that he once caught NBA star Chris Paul with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, it appears half of Tinseltown is having a pretty rough time when it comes to telling their partners the truth nowadays.
Oh, and there’s also the now-retracted statement in court docs by RHOA star Cynthia Bailey that claimed infidelity from now-ex husband Mike Hill is what led to their speedy divorce. See, even the Real Housewives can’t catch a break!
