These Celebrity Cheaters Got Caught Red-Handed (And Here’s The Proof)

Monica May 23, 2024

Cheating on your partner is never a good thing. It means there’s something seriously wrong in your relationship with your partner. If you or your partner cheats before trying to resolve the issues in your relationship, it means there’s usually no turning back. Before you cheat, it’s important to consider the negative, long-term effects it’ll have on your future. But we normal folk aren’t the only cheaters out there.

Celebrities are also cheaters, but it’s even worse for them because there are usually paparazzi following them around. Getting caught after the fact is one thing, but getting caught during the act is another. We found the spiciest, dirtiest moments celebrity cheaters got caught, and they do not disappoint. Check them out right here.

Josh Duhamel and Fergie

Just because she’s ‘Fergalicious,’ doesn’t mean someone wouldn’t cheat on Fergie. Even though Josh Duhamel is a successful actor, he was accused of cheating on Fergie less than nine months after their marriage. Josh claimed the accusations weren’t true, as any cheater always does, but something was obviously putting strain on their relationship. A stripper claimed she’d had an intimate relationship with Duhamel. Both Fergie and Duhamel denied it, and Duhamel’s representative said, “This is not the first nor will it be the last time that a stripper has paid a large amount of money to sell a false story about a celebrity. This story is ridiculous.” The rumors affected their marriage and the two eventually broke up (via MSN).

Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian

Yes, there was a time before Kourtney and Travis Barker dated where she was with Scott Disick for quite some time. Even though Scott said he loved Kourtney, Kim, and Khloé found texts on his phone to another woman. From then on, it was downhill for Scott, and he and Kourtney’s relationship faltered and burned to the ground. They were your typical on-again, off-again pair. After his second child, Disick dealt with personal things and left Kourtney. But shortly after, he was seen canoodling with his ex-wife Chloe Bartoli. Disick said, “I f**ked up. I made the worst decision I’ve ever made in my life.” You lost a Kardashian is what you did, Scott (via ET Online).

Robin Thicke and Paula Patton

While on set for his “Blurred Lines” video, Thicke inappropriately touched Emily Ratajkowski, which spared a fair share of controversy. But this was all happening even though he was married to Paula Patton. Thicke tried to write an album for his wife to make up for it, but it didn’t work out very well. It sounds like their relationship was constantly on rocky ground. Thicke even said, “My marriage to Paula was crumbling. I started using painkillers. It was a melting pot of trouble brewing, and I was so arrogant that I thought I could handle it all.” That, mixed with being one of the most arrogant celebrity cheaters on this list, is a recipe for disaster (via People).

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck’s recent wedding pictures prove how much of a beautiful couple they are, and we can’t help but drool all over them. But before Jennifer Lopez, Affleck was with another Jennifer, and that was Garner. They were also a cute couple, but before they split, accusations came out that Ben cheated on Jennifer with the nanny. But that wasn’t the reason for their divorce; that was the cherry on top. Garner always had one foot in front of the other, and said “I need to move with the big picture always on my mind, and the kids first and foremost.” Even though Ben struggled with addiction, it’s no excuse for his behavior (via Koimoi).

Wayne and Coleen Rooney

Even though Wayne Rooney is a legend in the world of soccer, he’s also a legend in the celebrity cheaters world. He hasn’t cheated once, but many times. For some reason, his wife Coleen never left him and let him be the cheater that he is, despite the pain he likely caused her. She deserves better, and anyone that’s cheated on needs to rethink their entire marriage. They’ve even recently renewed their wedding vows. One source said, “After everything they’ve been through, Coleen and Wayne plan to go all out for their 15th wedding anniversary. For them, it’ll mark the end of one chapter and the beginning of another – hopefully less drama-filled – stage of their lives,” a source said. They’re apparently in a happy place, though being married to a cheater doesn’t sound happy (via Mirror).

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson

You’ll never know what Kristen Stewart is feeling because of her lack of facial expressions. She rose to fame through the height of the “Twilight” series. But there wasn’t only romantic drama in the series, there was also drama in her relationship. Even though she was dating Robert Pattinson, she was caught in photos with director Robert Sanders. It’s safe to assume what she was up to. Stewart felt pressured by society to date Pattinson, and even said, “Speaking candidly, it was a traumatic period in my early 20s that kick-started something in me that was a bit more feral.” In that case, we understand her decision to cheat, even if it wasn’t the right decision (via First Curiosity).

Tony Parker and Eva Longoria

This couple seemed madly in love, but photos are deceiving. Even though the two were celebrities, doesn’t mean they had a happy marriage. Their marriage only lasted three years, thanks to Tony’s poor decision-making. Not only was he one of the most obvious cheaters out there, but he didn’t even cheat with a stranger. His wife, Eva, found risque messages between Tony and his former teammate’s wife. Not only did it destroy his marriage with Eva, but it destroyed his former teammates’ marriage. One source commented on Eva’s reaction, saying, “Eva wants everyone to know she’s devastated by the rumors of Tony’s infidelity. She loved her husband and is heartbroken about their split.” We imagine that’s only half of it (via ABC News).

Gavin Rossdale And Gwen Stefani

At one point, Gwen Stefani was one of the quirkiest celebrities out there. But before she dated Blake Shelton, who you’re probably familiar with, she was with Gavin Rossdale, the lead singer of the band Bush. But when a beautiful nanny showed up at their doorstep, he became one of the worst Hollywood cheaters out there. Another nanny ratted on the pair when she saw flirtatious texts. First, Gavin denied the accusations, but he eventually admitted it went on for three years. Gavin wasn’t that inconspicuous, considering he sent the texts through his phone, which was linked to the family’s iPad. A source said Gwen was “mortified, livid, and embarrassed” (via US Magazine).

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez

Even though Justin Bieber found true love in the end, it wasn’t always the case. He had a tumultuous relationship with Selena Gomez before marrying his current wife Hailey. The pair broke up and got back together numerous times. Justin was one of those cheaters that got away with it multiple times. After Bieber married Hailey, fans supported Selena, saying, “Does anybody just feel bad for Selena Gomez? Like can you imagine going through a breakup so publicly with a guy who you were in love with for seven years and then like two months later he just marries someone.” No, we can’t imagine that. First, he cheated on her multiple times and then married someone. No one deserves that (via Style Caster).

Ned and Ariel Fulmer

Back in 2014, The Try Guys formed. These guys try a bunch of different things and end up with hilarious results. But apparently, claims came out that Ned cheated on Ariel, though she never broke up with him. When it came out that he did cheat on her with someone named Alex, the couple worked through a lot of pain. The Try Guys also fired Ned, and said, “Ned Fulmer is no longer working with The Try Guys. As a result of a thorough internal review, we do not see a path forward together,” the post read. “We thank you for your support as we navigate this change.” At least Ned didn’t lose his wife, who stuck by his side (via Style Caster).

Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore

Ashton Kutcher is one of the most handsome celebrities in the world. But just because he has good looks doesn’t mean he’s immune to making human mistakes. The boy next door became one of those cheaters that made us lose hope in humanity. Even though he’s now with Mila Kunis, he spent years with Demi Moore, though he cheated on her at least twice. His friends found the scandal humiliating. In an interview, he said, “Nothing makes you feel like a failure like divorce. Divorce feels like a wholesale failure. You failed at marriage.” That’s what happens when you cheat, Ashton (via In Style).

Jude Law and Sienna Miller

Jude Law and Sienna Miller started dating on the film set of ‘Alfie.’ It only took them one year to get engaged. Just a little while later, Jude Law was caught cheating on Sienna. Jude confessed and apologized. Sienna wasn’t faithful either. It sounds like the pair shouldn’t date at all. In a statement released by the British Press Association, Jude said, “Following the reports in today’s papers, I just want to say I am deeply ashamed and upset that I’ve hurt Sienna and the people most close to us. I want to publicly apologize to Sienna and our respective families for the pain that I have caused. There is no defense for my actions which I sincerely regret and I ask that you respect our privacy at this very difficult time.” It takes a cheater to know a cheater, but these two cheaters let impulsive behavior ruin their marriage (via Cosmopolitan).

Tristan Thompson and Khloé Kardashian

We saw one Kardashian on this list, so it’s probably not surprising to see another. We don’t feel a lot of pity for the Kardashian family, considering how much drama the family attracts. But Khloé went through a lot with basketball player Tristan Thompson. He cheated on her at least three times, and not only with a close family friend, but he impregnated another woman. No one deserves that. Khloé said, “His mistake was humiliating and heartbreaking but I do believe that I am strong enough to endure anything. I choose to find a life lesson in every situation, even the nasty ones. Tristan has grown from this but most importantly he is a beautiful father to our sweet baby True.” She hopes he’ll change one day, but considering the number of times he’s cheated, it isn’t likely (US Magazine).

Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith

Rumor after rumor spread about Jada Pinkett and Will Smith’s marriage. Some thought they were swingers. Others thought Will had an affair with Margot Robbie. But Will’s not the true cheater here, it’s Jada. She admitted to having an affair with August Alsina. She’s one of those cheaters that seemed to come out of nowhere. Cheaters always do. The three of them were in a love triangle entanglement. When the news first came out, Jada denied it, and it wasn’t until years later that she admitted to the affair. She Tweeted, “There’s some healing that needs to happen… so I’m bringing myself to the Red Table.” At first, people believed Will gave his blessing about the affair, but that wasn’t true (via Vulture).

Ime Udoka and Nia Long

These two celebrities go under the radar. They’re successful in their way. Ime is the head coach of the NBA’s Boston Celtics and Nia is an actress. But when allegations came up about Ime’s infidelity, he was suspended. While he was married to Nia, he became one of those indiscreet cheaters who carried on a relationship with a female member of his team. They split up in 2022, and he became a disgrace to the Celtics. Ime said, “I want to apologize to our players, fans, the entire Celtics organization, and my family for letting them down.” Nia is struggling to continue but is working on focusing on the positives (via US Magazine).

Eric Benét and Halle Berry

Halle Berry went through three failed marriages before she met Eric, but the trend of cheaters and bad marriages continued. Not only did he cheat on her after their wedding, but before, too. The two of them are no longer together, which is probably a good thing. Halle lost trust in Eric, and rightfully so. He said, “I was very much in love with my wife. But I could only contribute 50 percent. Ultimately what was the end of us was she just couldn’t trust me anymore. You can’t blame her for that.” No, we can’t blame her for that, and we praise her for ending the relationship (via Women Working).

Dominic West and Catherine FitzGerald

You’ll see Dominic West’s face in the latest version of The Crown, starring Prince Charles. But after paparazzi photos came out of Dominic and co-star Lily James, people questioned the marriage. We’re not sure what happened, but FitzGerald did admit, “It’s had its ups and downs of course, like everybody, but we are devoted to each other and our full, vibrant family life together.” At least their relationship had a happy ending, unlike many of the other cheaters on this list (via US Magazine).

David Letterman and Regina Lasko

David Letterman was riding the high wave to fame in 2009. He was the star host of “Late Night with David Letterman“ and had a very successful run. But when a cheating scandal came out, his world was rocked. A producer had proof of his infidelity and made sure Letterman knew it. He came clean after the alleged accusations, but his wife wasn’t too happy about it. Not only did Letterman cheat, but he was also unkind to his female staff and mistreated female guests (via Nicki Swift).

Jason Aldean and Jessica Ussery

Country music singer Jason Aldean loves to sing about getting down and dirty almost as much as actually he loves getting down and dirty. Some of these cheaters are obvious about their infidelity, and he’s just one of the ones who’s following through with his unfaithful acts. He hooked up with Brittany Kerr while still married to his wife. He tried to apologize on Facebook, but it didn’t work out in the end. The singer told CBS, “We’ve been together for a long time and through a lot of things together. Those are things that most people get to deal with in private, but we didn’t have the luxury of doing that.” That’s what happens when you’re famous, Jason (via EOnline).

Tiger Woods and Elin Nordregen

Out of all the cheaters on this list, Tiger Woods has to be the worst of them. When his model ex-wife Elin found out about his infidelity, she chased him out of the house. And rightfully so. Woods then crashed his car and caused a huge scene that made headlines. After that, a long list of people admitted they slept with Woods while he was married. Elin publicly talked about her healing process, and said, “I have been through the stages of disbelief and shock, to anger and ultimately grief over the loss of the family I so badly wanted for my children. I also feel stronger than I ever have. I have confidence in my beliefs, my decisions, and myself.” At least she’s now in a better place and isn’t married to a cheater (via US Magazine).

Nick Young and Iggy Azalea

It’s never a good idea to invite women into your own home to cheat on your girlfriend, especially when you’re living with your wife. Nick Young didn’t seem to care and was one of those cheaters who committed the acts in plain sight. He used to date Iggy Azalea until she caught him cheating on her by looking at her home security cameras. And it wasn’t even one woman, it was multiple women. Iggy said, “I broke up with Nick because I found out he had brought other women into our home while I was away and caught them on the security footage.” Did he not know there were security cameras? Or that his wife trusted him enough not to look at them? If she’s looking at them, there’s a good reason for it (via Grazia Magazine).

Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon

Both of these actors got married very young. Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon blamed the demise of their relationship on their youth, though they seemed madly in love shortly before the divorce. People suspected Ryan cheated on Reese with Abbie Cornish. In a statement, Ryan said, “I’m not a perfect person, but I’m not guilty of a lot of the things I have been accused of. My priority is and always has been the health and safety of my family.” He might need to rethink that statement (via US Magazine).

Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo

As the lead singer of Maroon 5, Adam Levine seems to be a huge inspiration to millions of people. They adore him for his voice and lyrics. But little do they know, he’s one of those cheaters that knows just what to say. When some saucy DMs between him and a woman called Sumner leaked to the public, the singer lost a lot of fans. He swore it was a false accusation, but we beg to differ. In an interview, Sumner said, “Adam and I were seeing each other for about a year. After I stopped talking to him over months, this is how he came into my life.” She felt manipulated into cheating and helping ruin their marriage (via Style Caster).

Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez

Cheating has nothing to do with how beautiful or rich you are. JLo is stunning, and there’s no reason Alex Rodriguez should have cheated on her. He didn’t only do it once, he did it multiple times throughout their relationship. Luckily, JLo is now married to Ben Affleck, though he was also one of the cheaters to make this list. It wasn’t the fact that he cheated, but it was that she couldn’t trust him anymore. One source said, “Whether or not he has cheated doesn’t matter. She won’t tolerate the fear of it in the air between them.” We’re losing hope in humanity (via Elle).

Hank Baskett and Kendra Wilkinson

Kendra Wilkinson made her way to fame in the early 2000s when she was one of Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends on The Girls Next Door. She then starred in her show, Kendra, where she was with Hank Baskett. But when she was eight months pregnant with his baby, he cheated on her. She didn’t take it well, and he even tried to shift the blame to her. Through tears, Hank said “I messed up. I put myself in a bad situation. And everything through me brought pain upon this family.” You can’t undo some things, Baskett (via People).

Kevin Hart and Eniko

Funny guys make mistakes, and funny guys are cheaters. Kevin Hart is one of them. He was filmed hooking up with another woman while his wife was pregnant with their child. She sent the video in a DM, though Kevin and Eniko stayed together despite the scandal. Eniko was eating breakfast when someone sent her an Instagram DM. From there, they suffered. Kevin said, “The worst part was just knowing how you made somebody feel. There’s a major effect it could have on the people that you are closest to, who you love the most. When I got to see that first-hand with Eniko when I got to see the effect my reckless behavior had … It was crushing, and that tore me up. That tore me up.” But Eniko loves Kevin and forgave him, hoping they have a better future together (via Essence).

Kris Jenner and Robert Kardashian

At one point in time, Kris was married to Robert Kardashian, hence their last name. But they divorced because Kris cheated on Robert. She eventually married Bruce, now Caitlyn Jenner. When Kris’s kids asked her about the divorce, she said, “When I look back on it now, probably one of my biggest regrets in my life is that that marriage fell apart.” At least it all happened for a reason, because she had two kids with Bruce after the face (via Well Made Clothes).

G-Eazy and Halsey

Even though G-Eazy has the word “easy” in his name, it doesn’t mean he’s an easy-going guy. During a performance on SNL, Halsey exposed G-Eazy and his infidelity. On her performance backdrop, she posted a huge message that said, “I’m so sorry Ashley I cheated.” Talk about dirty revenge, though she learned a lesson from exposing him like this. Halsey said, “The biggest lesson I learned was to make art, not headlines. Because it can become quite easy, in the social media generation, to go from being a musician to becoming a personality.” At least the two aren’t together anymore (via Distractify).

Lamar Odom and Khloé Kardashian

We’re seeing Khloé Kardashian again, but this time, it’s thanks to Lamar Odom. Khloé caught Lamar in person, doing the deed. She and Kris followed him to a hotel, where they caught him with several girls under the influence of several different substances. Lamar said, “It would be a blessing just to be in her presence to tell her I’m sorry and what a fool I was. She has the right to never see me again for the things I put her through, but time moves on and people change. I would say I’m a lot more loyal now.” We beg to differ, Lamar. Once a cheater, always a cheater. Let’s just hope Khloé has better luck someday (via Complex).

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott

Known for her role on Beverly Hills 90210, Tori Spelling has as much of a drama-filled life off the screen as she does on screen. Her husband, Dean McDermott, cheated on her while he was working in Canada. Tori always thought McDermott was unfaithful, and even admitted, “He [would be] like, ‘Why are you? I’ve never given you a reason.’ Then when it happened, I was like, ‘Oh my God, see, you cheated on me,’ so it was a hard thing to navigate.” After the fact, McDermott said, “I feel shame. I’ve never felt shame before,” and because of this, their family is now suffering. They might never go back (via People).

Jay-Z and Beyoncé

As the ultimate power couple, the world believed Jay-Z and Beyoncé would never falter. But like any couple, they’re not immune to cheaters. Jay-Z had an affair, and it’s probably not the last one. The two of them expressed their feelings through songs, though we’re not sure that’s going to fix anything. Jay-Z felt guilt for his actions, and said, “The hardest thing is seeing pain on someone’s face that you have caused and then having to deal with yourself. You have to survive so you go into survival mode, and when you go into survival mode, what happens? You shut down all emotions.” Maybe he needs to think next time before he acts (via Koimoi).

Gleb Savchenko and Elena Samodanova

After getting married in 2006, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. Gleb, a dancer on ‘Dancing With the Stars,’ supposedly had multiple affairs behind Elena’s back. But Gleb defends himself and says Elena is making up a bunch of lies. In an interview, he said, “I’ve never actually cheated on her. Never, ever, ever. This whole thing, it was her trying to set it up,” Savchenko alleges. “All of those partners that I danced with, it might have looked on TV like [it was something more], but it never was the case.” He’s playing the victim role, though many people know he’s one of those cheaters that will lie until the day he dies (via People).

Christie Brinkley and Peter Cook

In the ’70s and ’80s, Christie Brinkley was a beautiful model. She made her way to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issues and CoverGirl. Her most memorable scandal was with Peter Cook, who was cheating on her for two years. He also cheated on her with a 17-year-old daughter of a police officer. He’s one of those cheaters who has a thing for younger women, which is horrible considering he has a 15-year-old daughter (via Daily Mail).

Jesse James and Sandra Bullock

After five years together, Jesse James cheated on Sandra Bullock. Men and women are both cheaters, as we can see from this list, but that doesn’t mean their marriage survived. And no, most people don’t cheat, Jesse. He allegedly cheated on Sandra with 20 other women, and she took to social media to vent and let the world know how horrible of a human he is (via Daily Mail).

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel

Everyone remembers the days of NSYNC and how many fans around the world fell in love with Justin Timberlake. But he was caught being handsy with a co-star even though he was committed to Jessica Biel. He blames the alcohol, though that excuse only goes so far. Timberlake said he had a “strong lapse in judgment,” and apologized profusely (via Suggest).

Liam Hemsworth and Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth met while on set for the film ‘The Last Song.’. Even though the two fell in love, their relationship was still rocky. Miley was accused of cheating, which she denied. Fans also suspected Liam Hemsworth was unfaithful. Miley denies all accusations, and said, “There are NO secrets to uncover here. I’ve learned from every experience in my life. I’m not perfect, I don’t want to be, it’s boring. I’ve grown up in front of you, but the bottom line is, I HAVE GROWN UP. I can admit to a lot of things but I refuse to admit that my marriage ended because of cheating.” The two just shouldn’t be together (via Style Caster).

Katharine McPhee and Nick Cokas

You probably recognize Katharine McPhee from American Idol, during the time Kelly Clarkson made her way to fame. Even though she was dating Nick Cokas, she was also hooking up with the director of Smash, Michael Morris. In an interview, she said, “I have not been single for very much of my life. ‘I don’t understand how to date or how to be single.” She doesn’t know how to date because she broke her husband’s heart (via Daily Mail).

Ne-Yo and Crystal Smith

In the early 2000s, you likely heard Ne-Yo on your radio. The R&B singer melted hearts, but like many other cheaters on this list, he also broke them. He was married to Crystal, but she eventually learned he was with numerous women. In an interview, she said, “8 years of unknowingly sharing my life and husband with numerous women who sell their bodies to him unprotected every last one of them. I gained 3 beautiful children out of this but nothing else but wasted years and heartache.” People still try sending her videos of him cheating, but she wants nothing to do with it. She filed for divorce and moved on (via Captial Xtra).

Leann Rimes and Dean Sheremet

Leann Rimes is now married to Eddie Cibrian. But they don’t have an innocent meeting. They met on the set of “Northern Lights,” where they had an extramarital affair with other people and then married each other. But Sheremet admits he was also at fault, and said he began to resent his wife. He also said., “As it went on, there were a lot of animosities that built up. I felt like I was never having my needs met so there was fighting. And I was so intertwined in managing her career that I didn’t know how to make the distinction between husband and boss, husband and partner, husband and manager.” But eventually, the two couldn’t stay together and got divorced (via EOnline).
