Bones star David Boreanaz is speaking out about the 2010 affair that almost ruined his marriage to wife Jaime Bergman. What does he have to say about it? Well, apparently it was "a bonding experience, in the long run." It was widely reported in 2010 that Boreanaz had an affair with famed Tiger Woods mistress Rachel Uchitel (who got married this weekend in Las Vegas), although the actor never named the woman at the center of his extramarital affair. After the mystery woman reportedly tried to extort money from the actor, he admitted the indiscretion to People magazine, saying, "Our marriage has been tainted with my infidelities.”
But now, just a year and a half later, Boreanaz is saying that the affair actually made his marriage stronger in the long run. "In a sacred ground like marriage, you find yourself out of it at certain times for reasons unknown that can be destructive," he explained to US Weekly. "There could be a demon that kind of comes out and overtakes you."
"Do I believe in giving up?" Boreanaz went on to say. "No, I don't. I'm a fighter. I'm a lover." While we're happy that the couple seems to have gotten past Boreanaz's infidelities, we don't really think that cheating on your wife will take off as a suitable alternative to couples' counseling.
Boreanaz and Bergman, who is a former Playboy Playmate, met at a Valentine's Day party at the Playboy Mansion and wed just under a year later. The couple have two children, son Jaden (9) and daughter Bella (2).
