McGreevey: I’m Broke And I Owe My Boyfriend $250K

Disgraced former NJ Governor Jim McGreevey told the judge presiding over his divorce trial that he can’t pay alimony because he’s broke and owes his boyfriend $250K.

Former New Jersey Gov. Jim McGreevey yesterday said he owes a quarter-million dollars to his boyfriend, but wants to pay child support for the daughter he has with his estranged wife, as well as for his first child. The nation’s first openly gay governor denied, however, that he is financially dependent on boyfriend Mark O’Donnell. ‘I want to pay child support. I want to fulfill my obligations,’ McGreevey told a state judge during his third day of testimony in his divorce trial. ‘Unfortunately, I have had to bankrupt myself to pay legal fees upon legal fees.’ McGreevey said O’Donnell has lent him much of the legal costs, as well as the $3,000 that McGreevey is charged monthly for living in O’Donnell’s Plainfield mansion.

McGreevey is “charged” $3000 to live with his boyfriend? Wouldn’t that be also known as “paying his share of the mortgage”?
