Marie-Anne Thiebaud, Woman Who Broke Up Shania Twain's Marriage, Back in the News

Marie-Anne Thiebaud, the longtime friend of secretary of Shania Twain who reportedly had an affair with Twain's husband, is back in the news after Twain took to her website to write of her life post-divorce. While Twain never mentioned Theibaud by name, anyone reading between the lines can find plenty of references to the woman.

Here is a caption. Twain writes of the shock of finding out her friend was sleeping, saying "I hit a very big bump in the road." However, Twain says she now surrounds herself only with "loved ones I can trust." Twain goes on to write about a gentleman named Fred, saying "A dear friend and true gentleman by the name of Fred, has been the most constant companion of support for both Eja [Twain's daughter] and me, and having gone through the suffering of his family splitting apart at the same time under the same extreme circumstances, he understood me better than anyone."

So who is this Fred? He's actually Frederic Thiebaud, the ex-husband of Marie-Anne Thiebaud. The twisted web between the two families continues to grow ever more complex.
