Reports: ESPN analyst, family stalked “Fatal Attraction-style”
OK, this is why you should not have an affair with a crazy production assistant.
ESPN analyst Steve Phillips and his family were stalked “Fatal Attraction”-style by a jilted 22-year-old, according to an article posted by the New York Post.
After Phillips kicked her to the curb and ended the affair this summer, ESPN assistant Brooke Hundley allegedly went a little nutty and called Phillips’ wife, Marni, several times.
The young women also wrote letters and text messages detailing the forbidden relation.
“The tone of the text message was, ‘I care about Steve, I make him happy, and we both can’t have him,’ ” Marni Phillips said in an August police statement posted on the Post’s website.
Steve Phillips was concerned Hundley was obsessive and delusional. He had concerns for the safety of his family.
Hundley allegedly visited her former lover’s home and posed twice as a teen girls in emails to Phillips’ 16-year-old son.
“Over the past two to three weeks she has invaded the privacy of our family particularly my son; asking probing personal questions about our four boys and our marriage,” Phillips says in the statement. “She was flirty with our son; she knows what kind of car my son drives; she has indicated she will visit my son’s football practice etc.
Creepy.
Despite it all, Phillips, who has had affairs in the past, didn’t pursue criminal charges against Hundley.
This is just the latest TV interoffice relationship scandal.
