Steve Phillips Accepts Responsibility for Brooke Hundley Affair, Cites Sex Addiction
Posted on 08. Feb, 2010 by Hilton Hater in Celebs, Fashion
Months after his affair with Brooke Hundley got him fired as a baseball analyst at ESPN, Steve Phillips has spoken out.
He sat down with Matt Lauer today and took full responsibility for his immoral actions, while also detailing his addiction to sex.
“What I want to do is take ownership,” he said. “I made some mistakes … I’m fully responsible for what I did.”
The former New York Mets General Manager was recently released from Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services in Hattiesburg, the same clinic Tiger Woods reportedly attended for his issues.
Phillips referred to it as a place for people who are “broken” and “struggling to find answers.”
To his credit, he didn’t hide behind the addiction, saying:
“People look at sex addiction as an excuse; it’s not an excuse. I’m fully responsible for everything that I did and accept responsibility for that. I’ve broken my wife’s heart. I’ve damaged her and our relationship in a terrible way.
“I’m working my tail off to try to save my marriage … [but] I don’t know what the ultimate result will be.”
Watch the interview below and sound off: Do you believe Phillips is sorry for his actions?
Steve Phillips Enters Sex Addiction Rehab
Posted on 27. Oct, 2009 by Anything Hollywood team in Celebs
Steve Phillips, the ousted ESPN commenter, has entered sex addiction rehab. Steve Phillips was caught bedding his 22-year-old assistant, Brooke Hundley, in August and was given a week suspension. In the past weeks, Brooke acted erratically — calling Steve’s wife Marni, taunting his son on Facebook, which renewed the media’s interest in the story.

Brooke Hundley Fired By ESPN Too
Posted on 26. Oct, 2009 by Free Britney in Celebs
Brooke Hundley, the ESPN production assistant who exposed a secret affair with ESPN baseball analyst Steve Phillips, is now out of a job at the network.
A rep from ESPN at first confirmed to the AP that the 22-year-old Hundley “doesn’t work at ESPN anymore,” but it was unclear if she quit or was axed.
Later, ESPN said that in light of the events made public this past week, Brooke was indeed shown the door, but didn’t provide a cause for termination.
Probably something along the lines of her being a crazy b!tch.
Brooke Hundley’s experience at ESPN will look great on her resume. Reason for leaving past occupation? Sleeping with married superior and stalking his son online.
It was a mix of utter disregard for morals, positively representing the network and general common sense that got Steve Phillips fired earlier today.
The network gave the former New York Mets GM the heave-ho just days after he admitted a summer affair with Hundley and took a leave of absence.
The sordid affair soon became a full-blown sex scandal.
Phillips broke it off and Brooke Hundley lost it, stalking his teenage son on Facebook and harassing his wife Marni in a letter, bragging about nailing Steve.
A rep for Phillips claims he’s entering a treatment facility.
Hopefully one where he learns that just because a crazy chick works under him doesn’t mean he has to make it literally the case in a car in the parking lot.
Steve Phillips Fired ESPN Over Brooke Hundley Affair, Banging
Posted on 26. Oct, 2009 by Free Britney in Celebs
Less than a week after his affair with 22-year-old production assistant Brooke Hundley came to light, ESPN baseball analyst Steve Phillips has been fired.
ESPN made the announcement last night during the American League Championship Series, during which Phillips normally would have been in the studio.
“Steve Phillips is no longer working for ESPN,” the network said.
“His ability to be an effective representative for ESPN has been significantly and irreparably damaged, and it became evident it was time to part ways.”
Steve’s rep issued a statement saying that Phillips “is voluntarily admitting himself to an in-patient treatment facility to address his personal issues.”
The statement did not specify the nature of the personal issues, but Steve is believed to be planning to check himself in days before ESPN’s decision.
Steve Phillips has proven herself a very stable, upstanding individual.
Phillips previously had taken a leave of absence after details emerged of his relationship with Brooke Hundley, whom he met at the All-Star Game in St. Louis.
Steve and his wife, Marni Phillips, issued statements to police describing harassing phone calls by Hundley after the relationship ended, and at least one frenzied visit by Hundley in person to their Wilton, Conn., home in August.
Brooke dropped off an insane letter to Marni detailing her affair with Steve, then is said to have stalked their teenage son on Facebook. Marni then called 911.
Steve Phillips, a former GM of the New York Mets, had risen steadily on ESPN’s depth chart, joining Jon Miller and Joe Morgan in the game booth Sundays.
He admitted to extramarital affairs while with the Mets, as well.
Brooke Hundley has proven herself a very stable, upstanding individual.

The statement did not specify the nature of said issues, although we’re gonna guess that the married father of four’s parking lot sex sessions with Brooke Hundley, a certifiable nut job who went on to harass his family, were a factor.
