What can we say? No one will ever name their daughter Ashley Madison again. The Ashley Madison scandal has stirred the Internet scandal storm of storms. There are reports developing by the hour. Some individuals have admitted to affairs, others are swiftly denying any wrongdoing, or suggesting their identity was stolen in order to create accounts and some individuals and couples have remained silent. As the days pass, the list will inevitably grow, but for now, here are eight celebs who are stuck in the middle of the Ashley Madison mess.
8. Celia Walden
In the most legitimate denial of all celebrity parties whose name is now associated with the AshleyMadison hack, Celia Walden — wife of Piers Morgan — is at the top of the list. Sure, there are many who would suggest AshleyMadison being a good idea for her, because she’s married to Piers Morgan, but Celia quickly ‘fessed up to having an account, and stated that her reason was research. Celia is a writer, and she was scheduled to interview Noel Biderman, founder of AshleyMadison.com, and the proclaimed “King of Infidelity.” Yeah. Nobody feels sorry for Noel. Unlike others who are trying to hold up the hand of denial, Celia did interview Noel, and that took place some five years ago, in early October of 2010. Fortunately, the Internet can also serve as Celia’s alibi, as the interview is easy to find.
