As an infidelity expert frequently called on by the media to comment on popular infidelity issues and breaking infidelity news, I make it a point to keep abreast of all major news stories dealing with infidelity, cheating spouses and extramarital affairs.
At the end of each year, I review all the major infidelity news stories for that year, and pick the 10 infidelity stories that had the lion’s share of the news.
Below is my 4th annual list of top 10 infidelity news stories for the year 2007.

Madam, accused of running an elite prostitution ring in Washington, D.C, released the phone records of her client list which included Randall Tobias, Senator David Vitter, Harlan K.
