Did Bobby Flay’s Wife Perfectly Time The Huge Flying ‘Cheater’ Banner When He Was Getting A Star On Hollywood Walk Of Fame?


Bobby Flay became the first ever celebrity chef to get his very own star on the famed Hollywood Walk of Fame. However, he must have left the venue with a bitter aftertaste owing to a rather perfectly timed, huge flying banner in the sky that read “CHEATER.”

Bobby might have surely been elated for securing a permanent place on the Walk of Fame, but a huge flying banner that sprawled “Cheater” across the sun-kissed sky, must have left a burn mark on him. Though the banner read nothing else other than the accusatory word and didn’t single out the man of the hour, it is openly suspected the banner was commissioned by his estranged soon-to-be ex-wife “Law & Order: SVU” star Stephanie March.

The airplane made it a point of repetitively circulating the very area in which Bobby was speaking to the media about his special moment. The plane did not leave the area till he was done speaking, confirmed a few bemused onlookers and attendees. Moreover, the banner made its visibility known right when the star went on stage for his acceptance speech.

The banner was hooked onto a regular single-engine propeller plane that can be easily chartered for such banners. Though these planes do not have much horsepower, they make quite a racket that draws attention and hence are ideal to tow advertisements. There have been quite a few occasions when these relatively tiny planes have been chartered to openly accuse husbands of infidelity, a trait modern science attributes to genes as well as income disparity.

It is quite understandable why Bobby’s wife is upset. The Post had reported in April that a rumored affair with Bobby’s young and beautiful aide Elyse Tirrell had wrecked his marriage. Before being linked with Bobby, Tirrell worked for him as a hostess at Flay’s Bar Americain. While Flay has strongly denied the allegations, his representative Julie Halpin said a statement.

“This specific allegation was in a letter sent from one attorney in this case to the other.?.?. then leaked specifically to try to insert this story into the press.”

Interestingly, Bobby and his allegedly new love were spotted dining at Emilio’s Ballato just a week ago, further fueling the rumor mills. It’s no surprise then that Bobby Flay was the one who initiated the divorce proceedings to separate from his wife of 10 years. It has been confirmed that the estranged duo is battling over a prenuptial agreement in the court.
