David Duchovny to Prove He's a Sex Addict But Not a Cheater
We all know David Duchovny is a sex addict, but he says he is not a philanderer and is going to prove it. He is so mad about a story that said he had an affair he is suing the British newspaper the Daily Mail over suggesting he cheated on his wife, Tea Leoni, with his tennis coach. David is seeking $1 million in damages for defamation and invasion of privacy.
The lawsuit is over a story that was posted online last weekend saying that David had a 6 month affair with a tennis instructor named Edit Pakay. The story has since been removed from the Daily Mail's website.
The lawsuit says "this is false. It never happened." It also alleges that other news media picked up the story of David and Edit and this caused "additional and further damage to David Duchovny." According to the lawsuit, Edit is not David's tennis coach, as was reported by the Daily Mail. She is a friend and they have played tennis a few times.
David's lawyer said “Edit Pakay met with me personally before this article came out and told me she never had a sexual or romantic relationship with David.” His attorney also said that Edit signed a declaration under penalty of perjury in which she states that she does:
"not have romantic feelings toward him and, based on our interactions, I believe that David Duchovny does not have romantic feelings toward me."
"The last time that I met up with David Duchovny was almost a year ago, in November 2007, when we made plans to play tennis. His personal trainer was also with us. Since November 2007, I have not seen David Duchovny, other than running into him briefly at the gym in March 2008 where he was working out."
Sadly, there have been no lawsuits over the report that Tea is sleeping with Billy Bob Thorton. The former couple remains separated.
