Stephanie March and Bobby Flay’s divorce drama is so epic. We haven’t had a divorce battle this contentious in a while, especially considering the fact that Stephanie and Bobby don’t even have children. They’re just fighting about money and real estate, which makes it more fun for all of us in the cheap seats because we don’t have to clutch our pearls and shriek “Won’t someone think of the children?!” As we learned last week, Flay and March are in court right now, trying to work out the financial aspect of the divorce. There was a leak that March is trying to nullify the prenup at this point because, to March’s way of thinking, she significantly contributed input to Flay’s financial success.
Throughout the divorce drama, we’ve kept hearing bits and pieces about how March’s health has been struggling, and that’s why she hasn’t worked much in the past five years, and isn’t it just terrible that Flay cheated on his physically ailing wife, etc? Well, now Flay’s camp wants you to know something: March’s health issues are just about her breast implants.
Bobby Flay has taken an incredibly cheap shot at his estranged wife, telling the judge in their divorce case that any medical problems she has are the result of vanity … specifically a boob job.
We’re told as part of her argument to invalidate their prenup, Stephanie March says she’s been plagued by well-publicized medical problems, including a burst appendix and 3 deep infections. As a result, she says she’s unable to work as an actress and the prenup would create an undo financial hardship.
Bobby has responded to Stephanie’s argument, but he got surprisingly detailed, saying the infections were the result of breast enhancement surgery. It’s pretty clear the point he’s making is that Stephanie’s problems are her own doing … choosing to go under the knife for the sake of vanity. Stephanie also took a shot at Bobby, saying revelations of his alleged infidelity have compromised her health and mental state.
As TMZ reported, the prenup provides a relatively meager $5k a month in support. Stephanie claims she was a key reason Bobby was able to build his empire.
After watching a few minutes of E!’s Botched, I have a new and terrible understanding of bad plastic surgeries and the kind of damage that can be done to one’s body in the name of “elective surgery.” I think it’s possible that March had health problems – specifically the infections? – from a boob job, although the burst appendix was likely a separate issue altogether. And my first thought was honestly, “I bet Flay wanted her to get those new boobs.” And now he’s using it as a slam in their divorce. For the love of God… he just needs to give her a better settlement!
