The Star-Ledger reports that Dina Matos has dropped her claim that her former husband--and former NJ Governor--James McGreevey committed fraud because he did not tell her he was gay when they got married. McGreevey famously resigned office in 2004, and recently their history was fodder for a public divorce trial with claims of poverty and reports of threesomes. McGreevey's lawyer said the fraud charge was a failed "attempt to secure more money from JIm." Matos, who did not receive any alimony (just child support), said her ex was disclosing too much information to the press in violation of judge's orders.

After an acrimonious divorce trial, a judge ruled that former NJ governor James McGreevey does not need to pay his ex-wife Dina Matos any alimony. When McGreevey's lawyer got the news, the Star-Ledger reports Stephen Haller yelled, "No alimony-that's what I'm talking about!" Stiil, McGreevey, who claimed he was so broke that his fiancier-boyfriend had to loan him money, must pay child support, up to $1,075/month (less than Matos's requested $1,750/month) and give a $109,295 payout (less than Matos's requested $1 million).

Former NJ Governor James McGreevey confirmed that he, his now ex-wife and a former aide had threesomes together. McGreevey sent an e-mail to the Associated Press, "This happened, this happened in the past, and now we need to move on with our lives."

The NY Post has an "explosive interview" with disgraced former NJ Governor James McGreevey's old driver and aide, who claims he had many "three-way sex romps" with McGreevey and his wife Dina Matos. Teddy Pederson is speaking out because Matos has been talking about Governor Spitzer's scandal, "It's frustrating to hear her call Gov. Spitzer a hypocrite while she's out there being as dishonest as anyone could be about her own life... She's framed herself as a victim - yet she was a willing participant, she had complete control over what happened in her relationship."

Last year, in the middle of his woes with the State GOP (right before Troopergate exploded), Governor Eliot Spitzer revealed his wife said to him, "What was wrong with going into the family business? That wouldn’t have been so bad." Now, people are probably wondering the same thing, as her husband apologized (sort of) for using a prostitute the night before Valentine's Day.
