August 28, 2007 -- Paula Zahn's teed-off hubby didn't know that steamy sex trysts between his wife and an old pal were par for the course for years.
Maybe he should have. [snip]
"Richard feels betrayed," one pal said - and he only found out the truth from a tell-all manuscript Zahn wrote that documents her relationship with ContiGroup CEO Fribourg.
"It's a lurid and shocking handwritten account of their relationship," said the friend, who asked not to be identified.[snip]
Zahn, 51, and Cohen haven't yet filed divorce papers, and Cohen's friends said he thought they were trying to work out an amicable agreement until Friday, when Zahn socked him with a lawsuit demanding he account for the whereabouts of her estimated $25 million in earnings over the past 20 years.
The suit accused Cohen, who's acted as Zahn's financial manager since 1986, of putting much of her money into "highly illiquid limited liability companies."
It also charged that "some of her earnings had been diverted to Mr. Cohen's individual account . . . for his own use and benefit."
A source close to Cohen said Zahn was actually the one using smoke and mirrors in a bid to try to weasel out of their prenuptial agreement.
"She wants one way or another to break the agreement and go after his entire net worth," the source said of the out-of-work TV personality.
"Richard would like to end this in keeping with total regard for the prenup, which will still leave her a very wealthy woman, with tens of millions of dollars," the source said........."

PAULA ZAHN SUES HUBBY IN $25M WAR
If the story gets raw enough Paula may finally get her ratings.
Holy crap, I didn't know she was that old. Nevertheless, I'd still, uh...you know.
Well Darling Paula, while you were busy away taking care of your 'needs' he was spending both of your monies (since oh yeah, you are married!) to take care of his. Maybe if you would have paid more attention to your marriage and what was going on at home you could have had more control. But baby it sounds like you chose what was truly important to you. Now live with the consequences. You play you pay. He owes you nothing.
It will be interesting to find out if the Zahn suit is a ploy to get into Cohen’s net worth past the point of the pre-nup or to find out if the money she gave him was squandered and Cohen is not as rich as he maintains.
Why is this public business? Why shouldn’t the paper be closed and its owners and writers sold into slavery for violating the privacy of others in such crude and vulgar ways?
Because it is so much fun!
Shouldn't they be sold into slavery as well?
Either way it will be fun to hear the airing of their dirty laundry. Yes, I admit it. I will be holding my bag of popcorn rapt in front of the T.V. set. My bet is she is going to be looking her age a few years sooner now.
Whoa...easy there...remember the First Amendment?
She also plays the cello.

Your honesty is refreshing.
How did the popcorn taste when it was Rush’s ox being gored over painkillers and Viagra?
There is nothing more despicable than a cheating spouse and her cheating lasted years. She’s disgusting. I hope Ms. Zahn is the one to end up paying the Alimony, lot’s of it.
Some people just don’t know how to take a compliment!
"..A friend of the former CNN anchor said the fire went out of the 20-year marriage long before Cohen learned of the affair last August when he found his wife's "lurid" sex diary..."
Only a nitwit would leave a diary like that lying around.
The story goes on:
"..The ugly new charges and countercharges came as the celebrity marriage continued to implode - and after the Daily News revealed how Cohen found a diary illustrated with photos in which Zahn laid bare her alleged affair with the married ContiGroup CEO.
"Richard felt like he'd been stabbed in the heart twice when he found out his wife had been cheating with one of his best friends," one of the tycoon's pals said yesterday. "They played golf and tennis together. Their families skied together in Aspen.".."
This is all just too funny! Two money grubbing losers battling it out to see who gets the most moolah! Hopefully, in the course of events, both will suffer laughable humiliations. After all, what else could justify any attention to this story? :)
The info keeps coming like a slow acid drip.
She quit CNN fairly recently but apparently, it was for the nasty divorce, not so that she could relax. She plays the cello too. Now she got caught fiddling around (she's already had lessons).
I thought this was about Paula Abdul or Paula White (Church Without Walls, Tpa FL). So many Paulas...
