The Double Life Of Bobby Flay

May 2024 · 1 minute read

Getting awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame should be a day to remember. But unfortunately for Bobby Flay, that day was memorable for the wrong reasons. During the June 2015 ceremony, a plane flew overhead with a banner that read "CHEATER" (via Us Weekly). Talk about a PR disaster.

This embarrassing incident occurred in the midst of Flay's public divorce battle with Stephanie March, during which he, as mentioned, faced allegations of cheating with his assistant, Elyse Tirrell. Naturally, people speculated that his estranged wife might have been the culprit, but her attorney shot this line of thinking down real quick, stating, "Stephanie is absolutely not behind [this]."

It's easy to understand why March would be eyed as the mastermind behind the plane stunt. A mere two months before Flay's Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony, March's friend and fellow actor, Maia Madison, spoke to Page Six about March learning about Flay's reported affair. "She came to my house and was sobbing uncontrollably,” Madison claimed. "She said, 'I can't believe the last 10 years of my life have been a lie.'"

We can't be certain either way, but we suppose it's possible that message in the sky was meant for someone else? It is Hollywood, after all.
