Steve Phillips' Girlfriend Brooke Hundley: Pictures, Restraining Order

Brooke Hundley, the ESPN production assistant who had an affair with Steve Phillips and then sent a letter to his wife detailing their exploits (and his crotch birthmark), filed a restraining order against him just one day after dropping the infamous letter off at his home in August, TMZ reports:

In the document -- filed on August 20 in Connecticut -- Brooke claims while at a hotel back in July, Steve "bought me a strong drink and then cornered me ... trying to persuade me to come to his hotel suite to spend the night."

Brooke claims Steve called her hotel room until she agreed to see him, then "after the night he continued to text me on a regular basis with inappropriate things." Brooke says she "tried to get him to stop" but again agreed to meet up with him "a few times after work in the parking lot."

Hundley added that Phillips threatened to ruin her career once it became known that they had had a relationship, but she withdrew the complaint in mid-September.

Hey, that chick isn't that beautiful but maybe she had something that he wanted or needed. Beauty is afterall, in the eye of the beholder. He cheated on his wife. That really is between him and his wife. That isn't really the issue at all. The guys seems to have a sex addiction that makes his decision making questionable at best so that he puts himself in situations that end up causing him to lose his career, family and many other things. That chick is a bit crazy. She needs to go into a treatment center also. She has some serious unresolved issues apparently. Noone knows how someone's marriage works or why. I don't judge someone's decision to stay with a cheating husband or to leave him. I'm not in that marriage so I don't even try to make a moral statement on someone else's marriage. I worry about my own. I hope this guy pulls it together. He has just about ruined any chance of getting gainful employment at any news network or any sports team.

Aha, the old, 'He got me drunk and talked me into it' line.

Sing the song however you want to, Brooke, no one buys it. When a woman is in her room with the door locked, all she has to do to avoid a man is take the phone off the hook. If he texts you, block his number. If he wants a quickie in the parking garage, find a different place to park.

It takes two to tango.

Why is it that every time an affair is uncovered, the woman is always the victim? Except in cases of coercion, you'd have to assume it was mutual consent.

In Phillips' case, this was not the first time.

[cre8ive]

Apparently ESPN agrees with you. They fired her too. I don't think she was a victim. Victims go to the boss, or to the police. They don't go to the guy's wife.

[KarateKid]

She needs help. It reminds me of the Amy Fisher/Joey Buttafucco story, where she not only went to the house, but _shot his wife.

[Milash]

They're both a few cards short of a playing deck.

[Blackorpheus]

How come Letterman wasn't fired for doing approximately the same thing as Phillips?

[GO-BAMA]

Because he did nothing of the sort. Everything seemed to be above board with Letterman, who was not married at the time of the relationship, whereas here, there definitely seems like there was some coercion or harassment. Black and white, much? Geez.

[Blackorpheus]

Are you suggesting that there was no implied pressure in the Letterman situation?

[ObamAtomic]

When she is going to file a restraint against herself,she is dangerous to her own self.

[dct1999]

ESPN fired Philips, it was announced earlier tonight.

[maxfax]

Of course he's threatening her, what else does he have?

[MemphisBuffalo]

If you want to have an affair, first get a divorce. If you won't do that then do it with a mature woman not some crazy 20 something. Look at Steve McNair for the down side of screwing around.

[solarian]

can't these guys find any good looking women she is a dog

[AngelaQuattrano]

I don't think the word "dog" is appropriate, but it kind of makes you wonder why so many middle-aged men pair up with mentally unstable and unattractive ~20 year old girls.

Will men ever wise up about themselves and their overpowering sexual urges?

I'm talking about the kind of urge that makes you sacrifice your intimate bonds with a loving mate, your children and extended family, friends--and even put your job in jeopardy for a short-lived pleasurable experience with a much younger woman.

Haven't we learned anything from the affairs of Joey Buttafuco(whose gal pal shot his wife point blank in the face) to Bill Clinton, Eliot Spitzer, Mark Sanford?

We awkwardly laugh about this, but it is a serious matter. So many lives just go right down the drain because men can't hold their sexual impulses in check. Men should either stop getting married and making babies, or work as hard at being faithful to their wives and family as they do at being good at their jobs.

I know that women do this as well, but I just don't think they are as promiscuous as men.

[Anonani]

I think that someone should invent a computer chip that alerts an unsuspecting wife when her loving husband is having S E X with anyone other than her.

Maybe you are correct that this is really about the overpowering sexual urges of men. On the other hand, it could also be about the propensity on the part of some men to behave as though any female, regardless of age, marital status, kinship relationship, or etc. is fair game to them. Some will lie about their marital status, the health of their marriage, or promise anything (i.e. "we are together just for the sake of the children", "we don't have S E X", "I am going to divorce her for you", or anything else that seems to work. If you add the age and inexperience of the target of their sexual agenda, you get a Brooke Hundley. She probably really believed that he loved her, as she was told by him, and that he was going to leave his wife, as she was probably told by him, and all she had to do was contact the evil, frigid, mean, and wicked wife to speed up the process. For that reason, I am inclined to be a little more reserved about judging this young woman. I am sure in the coming weeks and months the entire sordid story will be revealed in all of its ugliness.

[Trueheart]

Sounds like the voice of experience. Everything you said rings true to me. The spouse who lives with you doesn't really understand you, and the new lover does. And the sad truth is that usually it is exactly BECAUSE the spouse understands you so well that you have turned to someone who believes anything you say about yourself.

[ImissBush]

nope

[uberlefty]

I find it ironic that some need to turn these sorts of things into gender bashing. The one thing that all of these MEN have in common is that they cheated with other WOMEN. It takes 2 to tango. The idea that these men were perps and the women they were involved with victims is an insult to women. You dont know the real story here and its just as likely that this woman planned on selling her story all along. If thats the case then it is the man who was the victim of an enterprising young woman? I think not. In affairs of the heart there are no victims only volunteers. We have little control over who we are attracted to. Some people have more control than others and some are more ruled by their hearts than their heads.

[Anonani]

Interesting comment. Seems like for some it is far easier to believe that this young woman has wronged the man and he is being victimized for choosing the wrong (ugly, some say) woman. Sounds like gender bashing to me, conjecturing that she was in it to sell the story. If she does, I hope that she spends a lot of it on the therapist who is going to have to try to help her put her life and her future back together. As with Monica, more people (male and female) are willing to see this man as her victim, than her to be his. Why is that? Boys will be boys I guess and are easily forgiven ...and women no matter their age are just S. L. U. T. S, even the 13 year olds. Why is that?

[Trueheart]

I really wasn't trying to bash anyone.
My thoughts were more about what a tragedy it is that men destroy their marriages, families, reputations, integrity and careers just because their sexual urges lead them to irrational decisionmaking. I did mention that I know women do this as well, but I've been around more than a few years, and can definitely say that men in midlife are far more likely to risk everything for a confirmation of their virility and the thrill of forbidden fruit.
