The old saying "what goes around comes around" applies no better than to the philandering
couples on this list, who found out the heartbreaking way that being a naughty boy or girl doesn't
go unpunished.
These are the celeb cheaters who later got a taste of their own medicine.
Dennis Quaid
When Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid divorced in 2001, the public was quick to put the blame
on Ryan, who had a highly-publicized affair with Russell Crowe after they co-starred in
2000's Proof Of Life.
However, she later claimed that Quaid had cheated on her throughout their decade-long
marriage.
In 2008, Ryan told In Style,
"Dennis was not faithful to me for a long time, and that was very painful.
I found out more about that once I was divorced."
As for Crowe's part, Ryan explained,
"I think he took a big hit.
But [he] didn’t break up the marriage.
He was definitely there at the end, but it wasn’t his fault."
Quaid responded that same year, telling The Daily Mail,
"It was eight years ago, and I find it unbelievable that Meg continues publicly to rehash and
rewrite the story of our relationship."
Jude Law
Jude Law became infamous in 2005 when it was revealed that he cheated on then-fiancèe
Sienna Miller with his children's nanny, Daisy Knight.
Law's kids had reportedly caught them in the act.
Knight initially denied the affair to Law's ex-wife, Sadie Frost.
But after she was terminated from her position, she sold her story to a tabloid.
Law issued an apology for the affair, saying,
"Following the reports, I just want to say I am deeply ashamed and upset that I've hurt
Sienna and the people most close to us."
However, he supposedly wasn't the only cheater in the relationship.
In 2005, a reporter for News Of The World hacked into Daniel Craig's voicemails and
uncovered a message from Miller to Craig saying that she loved him.
In the January 2014 hacking trial surrounding the tabloid, Miller said of her dalliance
with Craig,
"It was not a relationship, it was a very brief encounter.
He was my best friend and so me saying, 'I love you’, whether anything romantic had
happened or not, that was the way I communicated with him, whether Jude was present or not."
The trial also revealed that Law's publicists allegedly attempted to "backdate" Miller's
supposed affair to make it appear that it occurred before Law's affair with Knight.
Eva Longoria
Eva Longoria has admitted that she has a habit of "overlapping" partners, which sounds like
a polite way of saying she cheats on her boyfriends instead of dumping them.
As she confessed to Britain's Eve Magazine,
"I end up overlapping people because I know I'm over the relationship, so I move on without
telling them.
It's not good.
I've never broken up with someone successfully."
In 2004, The National Enquirer reported that while Longoria was dating *NSYNC singer J.C.
Chasez, she was also secretly seeing director Stephen Kay on the side.
That same year, Longoria met NBA star Tony Parker, whom she married in 2007.
Karma came back to bite Longoria when it was revealed to People Magazine that during their
marriage, Parker had been having an affair with Erin Barry, wife of Parker's former teammate
Brent Barry.
For what it's worth, sources close to Parker denied to People that a "physical" affair
took place, but admitted that flirtatious text messages were sent.
Either way, Longoria filed for divorce from Parker in 2010.
Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake
After his breakup with Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake frequently insinuated that she
cheated on him during their relationship, most famously in his "Cry Me A River" music
video.
Us Weekly reported that Spears may have hooked up with choreographer Wade Robson while dating
Timberlake, though that's never been confirmed by anyone involved.
But if true, Spears may have gotten her comeuppance in 2014.
Days after announcing her split from boyfriend David Lucado on Twitter, she said onstage
at her Planet Hollywood Las Vegas residency,
"Well, by now everyone knows my boyfriend cheated on me."
But it isn't as if Timberlake has been an innocent victim all these years.
While there haven't been rumors that he cheated on Spears, it's been widely reported that
he had a wandering eye during his relationship with Jessica Biel before they got married
in 2012.
In 2009, Star reported on a rumor that he hooked up with Rihanna, and in 2010, Us Weekly
reported that he slept with Olivia Munn, though his rep has denied all allegations of infidelity.
Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner
When the original Bennifer first got together, Jennifer Lopez might've still been married
to dancer Cris Judd.
J. Lo insisted that nothing between her and Ben Affleck happened until she was separated
from Judd.
But Judd's father hinted to The New York Daily News that they'd hooked up in Lopez's trailer
on the set of Gigli before the marriage ended.
Bennifer 2.0 may have had similar beginnings.
In a 2013 interview with Playboy, Affleck hinted that he may have stepped out on then-fiancèe
Lopez with Jennifer Garner on the set of 2003's Daredevil.
He revealed,
"That's where I found my wife.
We met on Pearl Harbor, which people hate, but we fell in love on Daredevil."
Garner was married to Scott Foley at the time, but in 2003, she was caught on camera on the
IFC show Dinner For Five, swooning over Affleck.
Karma came back around for Garner eventually: After she filed for divorce from Affleck in
April 2017, sources told People that he'd been having an affair with Saturday Night
Live producer Lindsay Shookus since 2013.
As for Lopez, People reported in October 2016 that she and boyfriend Casper Smart split,
with a source revealing,
"She kicked him out because he cheated on her and he got caught.
It happened two years ago, and he promised he would never do it again and once he did,
she was done."
