Genuine salacious gossip, anyone?

Ok so I am party to some v salacious and libellous sleb gossip

I promise I am not a troll, tho I do name change regularly. I do not have proof that this gossip is true, but I heard it from a reliable source, and I believe it.

I heard it about a year ago and have often wanted to come on here and spill but it is v libellious and I'm not sure of the correct form in this topic (I don't come in sleb twaddle v often).

The reason I'm here now is that I'm fucked off with certain OPs on other threads, both in this topic and others, dicking around with people. Is it me or is there a lot of Hmm going on at the moment?

The other reason I'm here is that I'd love to know if anyone else has heard the same story. Which I think would render it more likely to be true.

Right. So how do I go about divulging in a way that won't get myself or anyone else into trouble? And how do I avoid journos?

Oh and finally the sleb concerned is married with children. What are the ethics?

Norbert - I think you're right, stories have been rumbling for a little while now and a family fall out seems inevitable.

Is it OK to say I won't shed any tears, there are some celebs who are just crying out to be knocked from their pedastals.

oh saythatagain - sorry x-post! i have never sent PM on MN so would also be a bit in the dark!

scarylooker · 10/11/2010 12:30

Thanks all. Rings a bell actually. How desperately sad for the person's family if it's true.

DamselInDisgrace · 10/11/2010 12:30

Ah ha. Now I know.

I suspect his wife is well aware that her husband is a twat in this case, whether the rumour is true or not.

sharbie · 10/11/2010 12:31

oooooooooo just got here - never had a pm before
some one let me in on this Smile

NorbertDentressangle · 10/11/2010 12:31

I've PM'd a few but lost track of who!

MmeLindt · 10/11/2010 12:31

I would like to say that I am above all such slanderous gossip.

If I were to find a PM in my inbox, I might lower myself to take a peek.

ChickensHaveNoLips · 10/11/2010 12:31

It might not be sad. They might have an 'understanding'. It happens. Embarassing if it all came out, though.

MollysChambers · 10/11/2010 12:31

Well I've worked out who it's about but pretty please PM me someone - hate being only person not to know. And I live for sleb gossip

SleepingLion · 10/11/2010 12:31

Ooh - thank you for the PM (very exciting to finally have a red dot...)

And as for the gossip, Shock

Poledra · 10/11/2010 12:31
