You may or may not want an affirmative action mail handler, school administrator or other paper pusher. But you definitely don't want an affirmative action president, doctor or fund manager. What surprises here is that an ostensibly intelligent woman like Ellen Pao latched on to an affirmative action huckster like Buddy Fletcher.

Buddy Fletcher and Ellen Pao’s marriage ending with mudslinging and acrimony...

No marriage should end like that.

Some marriages begin like that, but no marriage should end like that :)

He was running a Ponzi scheme.

[Tax-chick]

Like so many “elites,” it appears that everyone would be better off far away from both of them.

Her parents must be so happy. Married a dirtbag, and has no children at 49 y/o. Enjoy your money and cats Ellen...

Believe it or not - most divorced people I’m acquainted with have had marriages dissolve without mudslinging and acrimony in public. They just decided that staying together was more stressful than being apart. Then again, the people I know are mostly, for lack of a better word - nice.

That’s good that you know mostly nice people. It’s a healthy way to live :)

I don’t know of many divorces.

Italians out here still tend to believe you stay married once you get married.

Even if you’re miserable as hell! :)

They have a daughter. The article is worth reading in its entirety, in a cautionary kind of way.

Odd, it didn’t show a child on her Google search results.

What do you want me to tell ya?

LOL

I really don’t know who any celebs are any more. Including these two.

[EEGator]

Sounds like War of the Roses.

Fletcher was also known to hang around intellectual elites like Anita Hill and Henry Louis Gates Jr., who were the beneficiaries of a Harvard University fellowship that Fletcher funded in his own name.

LOL! This "couple" is the Affirmative Action version of Bill and Hillary. They know how to shake down rich white liberals (SJW's). No sympathy for either of them, nor their foolish investors.

They’re marquee names in the business press - famous for being famous rather than any concrete achievements.

They have a daughter.
