One Shocking Thing You Didn’t Know About George Stephanopolous’ Wife (or Probably Wish You Didn’t)
Out of all the things you might know about George Stephanopolous — the current ABC News anchor and former Bill Clinton staffer — you probably didn’t know this. In fairness, it’s really a fact about his wife, comedian and actress Alexandra Wentworth. And once you read it and hear the story, you’ll likely want to forget it.
I’m giving you a chance to leave now.
[3...2...1]
Okay, since you’re still here, you want to know. Or at least you think you do. Let’s just say it involves a former* fiance, a ring, and the worst wedding proposal ever.
Here she is explaining it on the “Tonight Show” with Jay Leno on Tuesday (transcript via Blindgossip.com):
Here’s the story. I was living with this guy. We’ll call him… Josh.
I came home one afternoon and he said, “Ali, I’m really worried. There’s something wrong. I was in the shower, and I felt something… I think it’s a ployp… you need to check it out.”
So, I’m from a very uptight, waspy, blue-blood family. We don’t look in orafices [sic] and holes. I didn’t even poop until I went to college. That’s how uptight we are.
But it’s a medical emergency… So he put down a towel, and he’s naked, and he laid down on his stomach. And I – very gingerly and in a very elegant way – parted his buttocks and reached in…
…and I pulled out a diamond ring. And he said “Will you marry me?” I said, “Of course I’ll marry you!”
Well, I ended up not marrying him, but to this day, I wondered if I had dug deeper, I could have had a tiara by now.
Yeah, you read that right. Now you can hear her explain it (stating at about the 1:20 mark below):
Well, okay then. We’ll let you go recover.
And if you happen to know who “Josh” is, let us know.
*To be clear, Wentworth goes out of her way to say she never married the man. So that means it is not George Stephanopolous.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 3:50pmGoogle this woman and go into images. Take a look at the more recent pics of her and compare her eyes to the above video. She’s not drunk since she is not slurring, but she has to be stoned out of her mind. Probably pretty well stoned from adolescence to this day. She is one whacked out woman.

I’d have made a Dr. appt. for something like that, and other than checking my kid out for pin-worms when an infant, I don’t go around checking out AH’s on anyone. Who would admit to that story?

You have no idea how funny that is. Last night I was going to reply to every jzs post with, “JZS is a Poopie head” but, decided it was a bit too childish. It would have been perfect with this story being posted today. Could have had a great time messing with poopie headed jzs. Should have listened to my Monk senses. : (

But isn’t it interesting how the most uptight and mousy women usually turn out to be the most in your face outrageous when you finally get to know them and they relax their guard…? At least that’s been my experience. Beware of wall flowers… They’re often carnivorous plants in disguise. LoL

Posted on May 25, 2012 at 9:46amBig-mouth Wentworth is one of the most trashy, low-class, liberal women on earth.
I believe, she believes….she’s Lucille Ball, reincarnated!
Hardly, Lucy was classy & funny without the gutter vibe.
There’s NO real, good, decent, handsome guy that can stand her.
She stands 3 feet high, over her shrimp of a husband.
As much as I can’t stand Georgie-Porgie,
you would think, he could have done a bit better than that,
Wentworth has ZERO class !
NO classy woman would end up with such a drip of a boyfriend,
leave alone, broadcast his “**** Proposal” to the world.
Considering her other “boyfriends”-
no wonder, she latched onto Georgie, walks him around on a leash.

Posted on May 24, 2012 at 1:36pmThis girl likes pink. Speaking of which, George Snuffleupagus used to be the whipping boy when Bill would get up in the morning. Especially so, if Bill had been burning out his nasal septum the night before — he’d get up then go into some tyrade of one sort or another and George got to be the vomit basin for it all. Maybe this Wentworth needs men to bend over for her too.
