Did an affair break up Al Gore’s marriage?
An attention-grabbing new report claims that Al Gore has been having a two-year affair with Laurie David, ex-wife of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm creator Larry David.
Star magazine claimed that Al and Laurie went from friends to lovers, thereby solving the mystery of how the ex Veep’s marriage of 40 years unraveled.
Not so fast, says Laurie David who issued a fast and furious denial.
She strongly denied the romance to the Huffington Post and said she has been involved romantically with someone else since her divorce, which was in 2007. She did not name her romantic partner.
Gore did not return calls for comment from RadarOnline.com or apparently any other news organization. Various unnamed friends of his were quoted as saying it was not true.
The mystery of Al and Tipper’s marriage breakup has been a gossipy guessing game since their announcement and Tuesday’s reports only fueled the speculation.
Laurie David is a global warming activist, friend of Al’s and was a producer on the Academy Award winning documentary An Inconvenient Truth.
She is rumored to have had a relationship with an employee at her Martha’s Vineyard home.
