Another Marriage Destroyed by La Perla

All the moguls buy LaPerla for their mistresses

From the Schadenfreude files, I present to you: The Douglas-David divorce as portrayed by Gawker!

Divorce, generally speaking, is not remotely funny, even when you’re rich.  However!  The George Davids have this BDSM-kinda-thing, so it’s different!  Breaking up turns him on, and apparently he’s been breaking up and having crazy makeup sex with his Swedish Countess for years, probably since they met.

Mrs. Douglas-David is no shrinking violet:  The royally connected former investment banker is six feet tall in heels.  She could have made him kiss her Louboutins but unfortunately that’s not her kink: She quit her job to be his emotional punching bag for money.  Money is apparently her kink, since she contested her bazillion dollar prenup and demanded 100 bazillion and $53K/week support for “expenses.”

Perhaps they deserve each other?  Let’s call it a divorce fetish.  I’m pretty sure their friends are sick of them both and no longer pay any attention to their dramas and crazy-weasel makeup sex, so they’re turning to us, the little people, via the media.  That means we can point and laugh and snicker without guilt, because the legal proceedings likely count as foreplay for them. Divorce porn? Let’s watch!

Of course he has mistresses; what mogul doesn’t? From the court proceedings:

“And La Perla is a women’s — uh — lingerie store?”
“Bathing suits,” said the mogul.
“High end?” asked the lawyer.
“I don’t know enough to know that,” the mogul snapped at the well-dressed lawyer, whose brightly colored socks are something of a trademark. “I suppose you know more than I do.”
“Well, do you buy clothing for yourself there?” the lawyer asked, apparently trying to pin down just whose posteriors the purchased La Perlas were destined to barely cover.
“As far as I know, not,” the mogul answered.
“What does that mean?” asked the lawyer.
“Well, I don’t think they have clothing for men.”

Oh. Do go on.
