Aruba marriage no more :(

[afish]

In perhaps the least shocking news of the day, the Aruba marriage did not last. From today's Review Journal :

A Las Vegas real estate agent's 7-month marriage to "Big Brother 3" participant Tonya Paoni turned ugly Tuesday.

Richard A. Foster filed a statement with Metro, claiming Paoni grazed his arm with a knife and threw a cell phone at him while he was in bed recovering from a recent heart attack.

Paoni could not be reached for comment.

The case has been referred to Metro's Domestic Violence Detail.

Foster said in a telephone interview that Paoni lost her temper when he wouldn't take her back. She threw her cell phone hard enough to leave a hole in the wall, he said.

"She has filed to take my $750,000 house, which I owned before she moved in."

Foster said they met at Playboy magazine's 50th anniversary party at the Palms in September and married Oct. 22 after Paoni proposed in Aruba, where Foster won $43,000 in a poker tournament.

"The 43 got eaten up in seconds. I spent $150,000 just buying her jewelry and trips," Foster said. He said Paoni spent $1,700 of his money on nude pictures of herself as a Christmas present to him.

"She's a gold digger and I know I made a mistake. I'm not looking for sympathy," said Foster, who said he had a heart attack on June 7 from the stress of the breakup.

He said Paoni told him she was going out for sushi last Saturday but later admitted she was at a high-roller party featuring "The Sopranos" cast at the Golden Nugget.

Paoni had a brief stay on the CBS reality show "Big Brother 3" in 2002 after housemates questioned her character and devotion to her five kids.

All I can say to that is, say it ain't so Rich, say it ain't so!

Also, why would someone who seems as much a skank as Tonya spend $1700 for something he's surely seeing every night, unless she's wearing flannel pajamas or something to bed.


Kevin...

i guess this means i can't really believe in romance anymore.

Man, never would have seen that one coming!
Who woulda thunk it?

Even so, this surely had to hit the over.

[WTF]

ALWAYS GET A FRIGGIN' PRENUP!!

Prenup Prenup Prenup

-WTF

Prenup is good and all, but better advice is not to marry gold-diggers.

I watched that tournament with the marriage and she just oozed gold-diggerosity.

Its not like she was slowplaying it to trap him, I could tell from my sofa what she was up to.

Even more important it states, don't mess with single mothers....If he had heeded that one (she has 5 kids?!?!?) he never would have needed to worry about the prenup.

Even more important is don't make geralizations. I am with a "single mother" now for 6 years and she is the sweetest most amazing person in the world. Single mothers become single mothers for 3 reasons:
1)his fault
2)her fault
3)his death
Ignoring #3, as you can derive no information from that (unless she killed him [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]), it is 50-50 as to who was f*cked up in the first marriage/relationship. As with any other woman, you just have to find the right one.

Anybody know what the over/under was on this one? Seven months sounds like the over to me.
