Phil Collin’s Ex-Wife Orianne Cevey Is Getting A Divorce From Her New Husband Who Was An Escort
If you should see Andy Cohen today, please give him his space. He is surely in deep mourning after learning that Phil Collins’ ex-wife Orianne Cevey is getting a divorce from her husband of just over a year, Thomas Bates, who she secretly married in Las Vegas while she and Phil were still together. Yet Andy missed his opportunity to cast Orianne in the reboot of Real Housewives of Miami last year. According to Page Six, Orianne and Tom’s love “turned sour” after Phil successfully had them removed from his mansion, where they had been squatting ever since Orianne moved him in, following their wedding while Phil was away on tour. So to learn today from court papers pertaining to her divorce, that Orianne ordered Tom through an escort service and he’s now accusing her of threatening to chop his dick off, must be devastating for Andy. You can’t script that kind of drama! It has to fall from the sky like manna from heaven, and Andy’s over here sitting high and dry. Oh well, you snooze, you lose! And nobody snoozes on Orianne unless they want to see their dick in a jar being auctioned off to the highest bidder!
The last time we checked in with Orianne, she was auctioning off a number of personal items that no longer “sparked joy.” Among those items were a few of Phil’s gold records and awards as well as 5,000 pairs of shoes. Shoes which were apparently made for walking on over to the mall to buy Tom “$75,000 of designer clothes and watches plus a $340,000 Aston Martin.” That was last January. By December of that year, it was over. I guess Cowboys 4 Angels, the escort sight she ordered him from, has a more liberal return policy than DoorDash.
Phil Collins’ ex-wife Orianne Cevey picked her boy-toy husband from a male escort site where he advertised himself as a “sexy intellectual” as she still lived with the Genesis singer, court papers have revealed.
The 48-year-old Cevey “insisted on dating” 32-year-old Thomas Bates after finding him on the Cowboys 4 Angels site, according to legal documents.
She secretly wed Bates in 2020 in Vegas — with no prenup — and then moved him into the Genesis star’s $40 million Miami Beach mansion while Collins, 71, was in Europe on tour.
The divorce paperwork between Cevey and Bates — first reported by the Daily Mail — reads, “At the time the parties met, Husband was employed by an escort service…..The Wife selected Husband through the escort service and insisted on dating him.
“The parties’ relationship rapidly progressed into a meaningful romantic relationship. Wife persuaded Husband to leave the escort service to marry her.”
Page Six adds that when Orianne and Tom took over Phil’s house, they did so “‘by a show of force’ with armed guards who surrounded the property,” per Phil’s lawsuit to kick them out. So once upon a time, they were ride or die. But no more. Here’s a look at their Bonnie and Clyde lifestyle from the year they were together.
As we know too well, it’s all champagne wishes and caviar dreams until someone threatens to chop your dick/moneymaker off. Page Six says that in December, Orianne posted the news of her divorce on Instagram (since deleted, damn lawyers!). But here’s what she said.
“I am filing for divorce from my husband, Thomas Bates. I believe the emotional distress of the COVID quarantine caused me to act in ways and do things that were out of character.
“Fortunately, I have faced challenging situations before and like I always have, I will muster the strength I can, the best team I can find and the courage to do the right thing.”
Apparently, the “right thing” to do was to threaten him “with bodily harm (by cutting off his private parts) when he asked for his clothes and personal property.”
…Bates claims in court documents that Cevey also threatened to slice off his genitals after he returned to their home after spending Thanksgiving last year with his parents, to find she had hidden his possessions.
“The Wife, who has earned a 3rd degree black belt designation and is trained in boxing, previously physically assaulted Husband on several occasions prior to separation.
“On one occasion, Husband had to scream for the housekeeper to help him exit the house to avoid Wife’s assault….Husband voluntarily vacated the marital residence for his safety.”
Welp. At least he spent a year having a housekeeper to scream at for help. It’s more than most of us can say. Plus, with no prenup, sounds like he’ll probably get his peen juice’s worth out of the deal. Tom’s Instagram account for his music career that Orianne helped get off the ground, has over 52K followers but is currently set to private (damn lawyers!). But just a month before they split, Tom performed some of his original songs at a concert in Miami. According to the Miami Herald:
The Fort Lauderdale musician, whose wife is Phil Collins’ ex wife Orianne Cevey, is well aware that his much publicized marriage has opened doors. He’s now hoping his talent will take the couple off the covers of tabloids and bring him into his own spotlight. Literally.
Bates is taking center stage Thursday night at the Palm Court in the Design District to play tracks off his new album, which happens to be produced by Emilio Estefan. Yes, Bates readily admits he was introduced to the local mega producer through Cevey, and he’s OK with that.
Here’s a look at what Tom is capable of behind a guitar.
No wonder he nearly got his dick stuck in the cookie jar. He’s really got to take better care of it moving forward!
