I wonder if he'll resign from his marriage too. Or perhaps he'll be sacked from it.

Going to be difficult to find someone of unadulterated  purity to take the position.

I was going to say impeccable but I’m not sure of the spelling

Apparently he told his wife of his affair just hours before the picture of him was published.

Sad day for his wife and children (and the other woman's, too).  As some of the gaudier papers put it, the "love rat" in charge failed to step up to the plate and sack the other "love rat".  What hypocrites!

(Hope this is not too political for RC. :-[)

Did he do the honourable thing and "fell on his sword" or was he pushed onto it  ;D ;D ;D
 
Proves the point that no matter who you are keep your extra marital affairs out of the Work Place.  :-X

I feel sorry for his wife and children and hope she takes him to the cleaners in the Divorce Courts.

It is very sad and a terrible shock for any unsuspecting families.

Apparently, Coladangelo has quit too

Another example of a midlife crisis?
