It used to be that you could dismiss all the silliness surrounding Boris Johnson by saying that he was something of a loveable rogue, but that’s changed these past few years.
You only need to look at all the pork pies (lies, if you’re not up to speed with Cockney rhyming slang) he told during Brexit to know he’s garbage, and then there is the small matter of his inability to keep it in his pants.
According to the Daily Mail, who cover all things salacious, Boris has been kicked out of the house by his wife, Marina Wheeler, because of a number of extramarital affairs.
Mr Johnson has already been thrown out twice before, first in 2004 over his affair with writer Petronella Wyatt, and again in 2010 when he fathered a love child with art consultant Helen Macintyre.
In the past Mrs Wheeler, mother to their four children, has taken him back, despite his philandering. Sources close to Mr Johnson refused last night to comment.
The MP’s daughter Lara, 25, was overheard at a party ranting about her father’s infidelity, saying her mother would ‘never take him back’, The Sun said. She added: ‘Mum is finished with him.’ She is said to have told pals at a party he ‘is a selfish b******’.
Below, here’s Boris with Marina:
Here he is with Petronella Wyatt at a party back in 2000:
Looks like he was a little more discreet about being pictured with Helen Macintyre, but here she is on her ace:
If you’re thinking that this should really kill off his aspirations of being Prime Minister, you might want to remember that across the pond, there’s a president who sleeps with porn stars and Playboy models and pays them off.
Actually, the information coming out might be strategic:
…one of Mr Johnson’s confidants said the disclosure was not an attempt to sabotage his hopes of becoming Prime Minister but a ‘damage limitation exercise’. The ally said: ‘I believe it is in Boris’s interests to get this news out there now so it is not used by his enemies in the height of a leadership contest.
‘It has all the hallmarks of an attempt to clear the decks. His marital problems have never been a secret.
‘This means that if and when he goes for the top job, it will be old news and cannot harm him – which is what his pro EU enemies were bound to have done.’
Here’s an interesting plot twist – Boris was first married to his “Oxford University sweetheart” Allegra Mostyn-Owen in 1987, but they divorced when he started having an affair with current wife, Marina.
A leopard never changes his spots, right?
There are also further charges of infidelity levelled against Boris, with some outlets claiming he also had an affair with journalist Anna Fazackerley somewhere around 2006.
Apparently, his wife had tolerated his philandering up to this point, “seeing it as a childish side of his personality which one day he’ll grow out of”.
Boris Johnson is 54 years old.
