Téa Leoni and Billy Bob Thornton Romance: Rumor Busting

October 17th, 2008

Billy Bob Thornton’s rep has issued a denial over allegations that he had an affair with Téa Leoni, after rumors suggested the fling was the cause of her separation from David Duchovny.

A joint statement announcing the break-up of Leoni and Duchovny after 11 years of marriage was released Wednesday (October 15), following his battle with a sex addiction.

However, reports say the couple’s split was due to an affair between Leoni and Thornton, with his rep denying the stories.

“Billy and Téa are friends,” Thornton’s rep told Extra.  “They recently completed shooting a film together (‘Manure’).”
