Aug. 25 2015, Updated 1:19 p.m. ET
Kristen Taekman is used to dealing with drama on The Real Housewives of New York, but nothing compares to the harsh reality she’s currently facing. After reports claimed that her husband Josh paid for transactions on Ashley Madison, he admitted to using the cheating website.
“I signed up for the site foolishly and ignorantly with a group of friends and I deeply apologize for any embarrassment or pain I have brought to my wife and family,” he told People.
Despite the possible infidelity, he insisted that the scandal would not lead to divorce. “We both look forward to moving past this and getting on with our lives,” he said.
The EBOOST owner was active on the site from June 2011 to June 2014 under the email JTeezy012@gmail.com, which matches his Twitter handle. Daily Mail reported that Josh paid for 62 transactions during that time.
