I posted this on the other thread too. Just a little juiciness for the evening:


Celebrity’ skaters pair off — much to jilted wife’s dismay
By Inside Track

“Skating With Celebrities” finalists Kristy Swanson and her on-air partner Lloyd Eisler are doing more than just clutching each other on the ice: The two are having a red-hot affair that has devastated his heartbroken wife.

“I was shocked, upset and betrayed,” Marcie Eisler, 31, told Star magazine. “I should have trusted my instincts.”

The mother of Eisler’s two kids — ages 19 months and just seven weeks — suspected her figure-skater hubby was two-timing with Swanson when she flew out to L.A. to visit him during the taping of the show.



But Swanson, 36, a B-list actress who played the lead in the 1992 flick “Buffy The Vampire Slayer,” made sure Marcie knew the awful truth. At the end of October the former Playboy covergal forwarded Eisler’s wife a steamy e-mail he had sent the skating strumpet.

“It basically talked about how much he loved her,” a source told Star.

The Canadian pairs Olympic champ “eventually admitted it,” when his wife confronted him.

“I told him, ‘One of us is leaving this house because we cannot continue together,’ ” Marcie told the tab. “Lloyd left on Nov. 5.”

The couple signed their separation agreement on Nov. 30 and Marcie says her husband of three years and Swanson are still an item.

“I talk to Lloyd because we have two children together,” said Marcie, who is Mom to newborn Seth and toddler Ethan. “I guess he and Kristy deserve each other.”

Ironically, when the two first teamed up for the FOX reality show, the judges were unimpressed with their on-ice chemistry.

“I’d love to see more of a connection between the two of you,” judge Dorothy Hamil told them when they finished last in “Skating With Celebrities’ ” first episode.

Apparently, they took her advice to heart!
 
I heard about this today on "The View". I hope they don't win.
 

I'd need to hear his side of the story before making any judgements.
 
That is not the way our local newpaper is reporting it...they said that Lloyd and his wife had already split up prior to him hooking up with Kristy....

I think that their winning (or losing) the competition should have to do with their skating ability and their performance, not the fact that he left his wife for her. :confused3

My sentiments exactly!

We all make to many judgements about celebrities when in fact we really don't know what goes on in their homes, only one sided news stories.

I think they have earned by their skating to win or be where they are today, they have come along way in her abilities, and that has nothing to do what is going on in their bedroom!
 
interesting...
i could have sworn they kissed on the ice one night...usually doesn't happen in pairs skating...

hmm...

now...Jillian and John...they need to get together! heheh (of course - i have no idea if either already have SO's.)

John's married to an Italian skater and is ridiculously in love with her - saw that when he was on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. I think Jillian's divorced - either way, he's too hot even for her. :cool1:

We saw that too, it looked like she tried to kiss him and he turned his head to miss it and held her close. We thought it was a bit odd!
 
what's funny to me is that, on the last episode, Kristy said Lloyd was like a great big brother to her. I don't know about you, but that's not what I would do with my big bro! :rotfl:

It's a very nice memory. Heck, even DH knows Zimmerman is hot! :rotfl2:
 
Well I found this:

Lloyd Eisler's heart has been stolen by a vampire slayer.

The two-time Olympic figure skating medalist and skating coach has fallen for his reality television skating partner, Kristy Swanson, a former Playboy cover girl best known for her role as the original Buffy in the 1992 film Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

The two met last fall when they were partners on Fox's Skating with Celebrities, a show that matches figure-skating champions with actors looking for a popularity boost.

The duo "started dating after Lloyd officially separated from his wife" in November, the pair's publicist, Cheryl Kagan, said in a statement sent to The Globe and Mail. "They are very happy."

The rest is here:
SWC

Their personal life is just that. I still think they're the best on the show.
 
I'm actually more shocked by the fact that all these male figure skaters are actually straight! :p

Well that's a completely different take than what was reported in the OP. I've really liked Jillian's skating up until last week. I thought Kristy was MUCH better. I can't wait for the season finale. It could go either way.
