At a certain age an individual with a traditional family life is looked on better. Before getting married know who you're marrying really well and also set up the conditions in no uncertain terms.

If you are a dealmaker, think of it as one of the most important "deals" of your life. Marrying an individual who "spills the beans on you" can be a disaster, like in this case.

Overall the Kelly case is an outlier. There are thousands of happily married folks out there where the guy has his fun on the side, and the wife her gardener (or mechanic) and everybody's happy.

Winners bring a bigger bag than you do. I have a degree in meritocracy.
 

This lady's completely crazy. Not that Kelley's a good guy-there's partying and even though I don't condone it screwing around on your wife, then there's Eyes Wide Shut freaky shit. But the wife brings up things in a public forum, her divorce proceedings, which involve her in drugs and voluntarily banging another guy while her husband's in the room. I also remember seeing something about her getting a DUI or into a drunk crash in the middle of the afternoon in the Hamptons with her kids in the car. He's by no means a saint and neither is she, but why would she bring all of this up if she's just as guilty?

And you're right. It's a deal and you just have to make sure that batshit crazy couldn't be applied to the counter party.

 

I believe when they had the initial custody suit, Sage produced video tapes of her doing coke at their home (she did not know there were cameras installed). That caused her to lose all or part of custody. In response, she released all this information, ultimately screwing both their lives over in my opinion...

Feel bad for the kids in this one.
