CBS news producer is unveiled as alleged blackmailer Letterman 'lover' believed to be suspect's girlfriend 'I've done terrible, terrible, things,' says chat show host

Star handed over fake $2m cheque in sting operation 'It's no surprise to me,' says long-term partner he married in March America's most famous chat show host has admitted on air to a string of affairs with his staff - after an extraordinary alleged blackmail plot by a television producer.

David Letterman told millions of viewers he had been the target of a $2m (£1.2m) extortion bid over his affairs with workers on the CBS show he has fronted since 1993.

Shortly after his candid confession, it emerged that one of CBS's own producers Robert Halderman, 51, had been arrested on suspicion of masterminding the scam.

Emmy-award nominated Halderman, who worked for real-life crime documentary series 48 Hours, is also believed to have had a live-in relationship with one of Letterman's lovers.

She was today named as Stephanie Birkitt, 34, who worked alongside him on the Late Show.

knowing Letterman's propensity for young girls, I would like to know if any of the staffers he slept with were under age.

How old is Letterman? 60+ right? and the young woman is 34? About a 30+ year difference. And he thinks it’s so cool to ridicule/make fun of others? Look forward to the day when this pig is gone from the spotlight.

Thanks for the quick pic posting. This is an act that should be made criminal. The network needs to be boycotted until this scum-bag is kicked off the Late Night show. Really, why would decent Americans watch this dog?

No surprise the old pervert thinks raping underage girls is fun. He should be thrown into a hole with Polanski.

The article has a photo that's captioned "This picture has mysteriously appeared on Twitter."

No mystery. It's from a CBS Late Show newsletter... (Stephanie w. Dave):

Another photo...

Oh my goodness, I remember her, he always used to have her on to give out prizes on the stump the band thing, she was very cut and I even suspected there was something between them, wow !!! My gut instinct is almost always right ...

How sad for Davids Son, Mommy is home taking care of him and Daddy’s out having sex with what are essentially children to him at his age ...

Years ago when I used to watch a female staffer used to talk to Letterman for laughs during the show, she would be somewhat flip with him at times deliberately..I wonder if this is her? The name Stephanie sounds familiar...hmmmm

$2 million? No way! I wouldn’t pay more than $20.00 for that!

Letterman. Just another good reason to avoid at all cost the prospects of spending eternity in Hell!

According to the article, their affair pre-dated the birth of his son, but after he started living with the woman who is now his wife. But apparently, the affair is not news to his wife, either.
