David Duchovny’s secret lover speaks?

Published on October 19, 2008 at 3:25 PM

When David Duchovny entered a rehab clinic two months ago for sexual addiction treatment the move was widely speculated to be an attempt to save his ailing marriage. It turns out that Duchovny and wife Tea Leoni may have separated perhaps months before. Earlier in the week new speculation arose that Duchovny who is now out of rehab demanded a separation after finding ‘explicit’ messages on Tia’s phone sent by actor Billy Bob Thornton – her 53-year-old, five-time married co-star in the film Manure. Thornton’s agent denied any impropriety saying: ‘They are just good friends.’
Now according to The UK Daily Mail, Duchovny’s Hungarian tennis coach Edit Pakay may be his lover. Edit admitted to the newspaper they have “developed a close relationship.”
“I don’t want to say anything that might hurt David,” Pakay, 28, is quoted as saying. “I am not going to deny it. I don’t know what our relationship means to him.”
Edit and Duchovny met last year at the exclusive members-only Malibu Racquet Club. According to a friend of Edit, Duchovny was “instantly enamored.”  “She never set out to seduce him,” the unnamed friend continued, “but she’s a gorgeous woman and he is a highly sexed man. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure it out. The sad truth is Edit fell in love with David. He told her he loved her and she believed him.”

A spokesman for Duchovny said the star did know Ms Pakay, but added: ‘There is no romantic relationship and never has been.’  Duchovney, 48, has been married to Tea since 1997, and have two children together — 9-year-old daughter Madelaine and 6-year-old son Kyd.
