Sara Evans' Husband Lashes Out

Sara Evans' husband says his wife cheated on him and he found out the day before she filed for divorce.

In court documents obtained by TMZ, Craig Schelske claims the day before Sara filed divorce papers, he "discovered Wife's intimate relationship with another man not her husband and an argument ensued between the parties."

Sources connected with the case tell TMZ that while they were together Schelske accused his wife of having an affair with Tony Dovolani, her "Dancing with the Stars" partner. Evans and Dovolani have both said the claim is bogus.

In his legal papers, Schelske also denies having a penchant for porn. He says, however, that on one occasion, both he and his wife "were watching adult entertainment together when their oldest child, whom they believed to be secure and asleep, entered their room...."

Schelske denies Evans' allegation that he was unfaithful during the marriage and denies there were "any sexual photographs of himself with any other women as there are no authentic photographs of husband unclothed with any sexual partner or alone except as taken by Wife or with Wife on the single occasion in which both parties participated." Schelske says he "regrets the incident but would state and show that Husband and Wife were acting as two consenting adults..."

Schelske seems to be answering Evans' claim that there are nude pictures of him in a state of arousal. Schelske appears to be conceding photos do indeed exist, but the photographer is Evans herself.

Schelske's allegations come exactly one week after Evans filed explosive divorce papers accusing him of having an affair with the couple's nanny. Evans also claims Schelske had photos of himself having sex with other women and had at least 100 nude photos of himself in a state of arousal.

32. I can't figure out why anyone is even concerned after learning both Sara and Craig publically and monetarily support Republican Ton DeLay! He's one of the sleaziest politicians ever from the state of Texas, the Speaker of the House who was forced to step down. And also the one who always referred to (gay)Democrat Barney Franks as "Barney Fag". Along with this recent turmoil, Sara has sabotaged her own career.

33. I've noticed all the women on here calling Sara a stupid bitch and taking the perv husband's side over her...I bet you are the same women who sleep with married men while their wives are home with the kids. Either that, or you're muff munchers.

34. I think that they sould have kept the issue between them, I personally don't care what happens. There are more important things in the world to worry about than a stupid he said she said divorce. The only people who will be hurt are the kids, and that's to bad, especially because it is in the public so much. Well I guess wish everyone luck envolved.

35. Come on...we all know how guys are and when the cat is away....

Porn is produced for men and gives them fantasies of horny women falling into the nearest bed with them. Some just take it too far. I can see how he might have been sitting at the computer and eased on into real life with it. Yes, I believe Sara and I hope she gets everything she is after.

36. Her hubby got jealous of his wife dancing with another man and probably went nuts and hit her, like she claims to have been abused. But it is still the kids that get hurt in the end. They need to let the kids know that this was not their falt.

37. I think that Sara wanted people to know who she was. Why didn't she shut up about it, Instead she gets her kids involved in this disbute with her husband. I'm sure they thought that DADDY was wonderful. Maybe he was but did we all have to hear it over and over again. I think that DWTS loved it or they wouldn't have left the story til the end cause everyone that was watching was waiting for her comment. And not many people knew who she was before she came on the show. If you aren't into C&W you would never know who she is. I knew I didn't. Just tell her to get on with her life and quite the O I would have had a nervous breakdown. Cry me a RIVER GIRL>

38. She is just as bad as he is. If she really cared about her family, she would be home instead of doing a stupid dancing show and being on the road all the time while her husband is home alone. What do you think is going to happen? Duh.

39. Maybe if the guy got out and got a job like most men, he wouldn't be getting into so much trouble. I think he is guilty as sin. I think the nanny is trying to make a name for herself through Sara's benefit. I understand that she was trying to break into show business, what better way then making herself known through a star, that helped her.

40. Craig Schelske is so full of bull twacky... I'm sure Sara has copies of the photos and she and her attorney will present them at the right time. Then, he will be very embarassed and crying the blues!

41. If you ask me, I see this as a classic case of Male Blaming the Woman Syndrome (M.B.W.S for short). This has been going on since the beginning of time with Adam and Eve, and I am really, really fed up with men whimping out and getting a pass because they don't want to own up to their failures. And as for saying Sara had an affair with Tony, well, its just too obvious. Yeah, the two of them had chemistry, but Sara never danced as sexy as sleezy Willa Ford! I think really he's just jealous that he couldn't dance and that hot Tony got to dance with her and MADE HER LAUGH!!! (Very important to us young women) All in all, I feel the most sad for the kids, and I feel for their sake the media should "can" it and have a little respect!!!!
P.S. And as for those previous bloggers who used the B-word to describe Sara, I say YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF!!!!! What would you do if you were in her shoes? What she and her family needs is prayer not blaming and name calling.

42. I agree with # 5, I think she wanted to accuse him first....you know it's said, " the best defense is a good offense". I've suspected an affair with her dancing partner since she suddenly filed for divorce, and quit the dancing show. I like her music, but I think it's gone to her head.

Posted at 6:12PM on Oct 20th 2006 by think she's cheat'n

43. she's just plain ugly, I don't blame him one bit if he cheated. any man in his right mind would do the same if stuck with such a hag.

44. I wonder what the voters in the Congressional District where Schelske is running for Congress (as a Republican) think of all this? IMO, it's just another GOP PERV uncovered! I hope Sara can keep her kids safe from him.
