Last week David Duchovny announced he had checked himself into rehab for sex addiction. Many assumed he was cheating on his wife, Tea Leoni, and some online reports claimed he was having an affair with his female tennis instructor. He wasn’t. Turns out it’s way more embarrassing. FOX News reports:
Alas, it isn’t so, says a close friend. Duchovny did not check in because of an extramarital fling. That much the friend is certain of. Even more so: Duchovny’s problem has been longstanding. His wife, Tea Leoni, was aware of it for some time. It had just reached a point where it had to be treated. I have inferred from my conversation with Duchovny’s friend that this has something to do with an addiction to pornography, probably on the Internet. It’s the sex equivalent of a gambling addiction, where the person is just hopelessly trapped in chat rooms.”
Seriously? You have to go to rehab for jacking off to porn? Isn’t that kinda the point of porn? Unless he was masturbating after he broke into a morgue, I’m not seeing why Tea Leoni has to be so uptight.
