Celebrity Justice
Dr. Dorfman the Last to Know -- What a Bitch!

ExclusiveWhen TMZ reported the split between celebrity dentist Dr. Bill Dorfman and his former "Apprentice" wife Jennifer Murphy, we just assumed the Dr. was aware that the divorce was going down. Uh- think again. Apparently Mrs. Dorfman forgot to clue him in. TMZ ended up telling him. Ouch!

When TMZ contacted Dr. Dorfman's office yesterday for comment, the person on the other end of the phone said she didn't know anything about it. Dr. Dorfman immediately called TMZ back, saying "Your source is wrong! My wife did not file for divorce." But TMZ knew differently, because we had the papers. Dorfman couldn't believe it. "She filed?" he asked, and, obviously upset, got off the phone quickly.

A source tells TMZ that Murphy didn't realize the papers would be made public immediately. Hello? According to our source, the Dorfmans were supposed to meet Tuesday night to talk about things. We're told Murphy feels terrible that he had to find out from TMZ that his marriage was over, but he knew it was coming.

Too bad for Dorfman, TMZ got to him first. Can you say blessing in disguise?

31. Poor Dr Dorf. And for the record, he is SOOOO not gay. But if having good teeth makes you gay, than alrighty!

32. Whether the Doctor is gay or not, is not the point. If he did not break his wedding vows to her.. and she has no proof he did.. She is still a gold digger in my book.

She filed behind his back, while he thinks they can work things out. They married fast, why? Because she was after his money, she went to the alter as fast as she could to get his wealth. If she had taken time.. and not rushed it, maybe she would have heard the rumors and said 'lets slow down'. But she didnt, she had dollar signs in her eyes.

And.. if he likes men and women, that makes him Bisexual.

33. 29. In defense of the wife (and I know both personally) Bill hide being Gay for many years, as a co-worker, we all new....wife number 1 left for the same reason...In my eyes, he was dishonest first, whatever came next, right or wrong, the tone was set... and BTW, I am Gay, and like Bill...(on some levels)...and his wife went in not knowing...decpetion on any levels is wrong...I will bet money there will be a wife number 3....

You may claim to know him, but you certainly are not his friend. If he is gay, it is his business. You sir, should keep your mouth shut.

35. Yes, please. Shut up. You are not his friend. And if you were HER friend, you would have TOLD her he was gay to PROTECT her. She is tacky and so are you.

36. Okay, are you people ready for this one? Those of you who know he was unaware of being served with divorce papers are correct. It was totally unexpected. While he was sitting in Hawaii waiting for his wife to arrive to celebrate their one year anniversary, she was busy sitting with her attorney drawing up the divorce papers. Yep, that's right....she was a NO SHOW! No phone call, no nothing to Bill. So, all of you Jennifer lovers, what do you have to say about that??

37. I have known Jennifer and Bill and actually attended their wedding. They both are beautiful people, and I am sure of one thing, This was not a surprise to Bill, just a surprise that she followed through with it. She is an amazing woman who simply would like to have a husband, not a absent partner, she is first and foremost very family oriented, career second unfortunately the same cannot be said for her husband.

38. b*tch. The least she could do was tell him before the news reported it. How crass.

39. In my opinion, TMZ is a piece of crap for even reporting on something like this, and even more so on wanna-be semi-celebrities like Dorfman. Nothing is private anymore because of degenerates that run sites like this one! Infact our do-nothing congress needs to enact laws against people that make their living on the internet spreading personal business about other people.

By the way, I've been to dorfman's office and that fat, cheeto-munching, curly-q troll at the front, needs to wipe the cookie crumbs off her chin and do something productive with her bad self....

And Felish is PPPPRRRREEEEEEEEEETTTTTYYYY !!!!!

40. To Friend of Jennifer:

I think it is honorable that you stand up for your friend, but I feel that your trust has been misplaced.

If she is sooo family oriented - why is the man thinking they are going to discuss things - when she is filing for divorce behind his back, like a thief in the night?

If she is sooo family oriented -why did she choose the most hurtful way to destroy her husband's reputation by filing secretly - when EVERYONE knows that TMZ checks the public records hourly? At the time she filed - he was her husband - i.e. her FAMILY. That doesnt scream family oriented to me. (And dont say she didn't know.. shes not stupid. She knew very well, and did anyway. I wouldnt make it to the Apprentice, I am not that "cut throat" - But she did - so she knew it was going to come out. And last I heard Mr Trump wanted 'business first' people for his show.. not family oriented business second.)

And she knew he worked alot before they married. She still married him. If she wanted him to changed his ways - she should have told him BEFORE the " I do" Or not married him. She married him anyway. That is tantamount to saying "I take you as you are - workaholic and all"

If she is soooo family oriented - She can not give her 'family' a full year before ditching it? Please! Women who have been beaten by their husbands can tough it out longer than a year, and she splits before that? Oh yea that screams family oriented - not.

My sympathies are still with the Doctor. And I still say she will try to soak him for all he is worth.

BUT if I am wrong, and I could be - she could prove her family values - by walking away from the divorce with nothing. That would show she wasnt after his money. Otherwise she is just a gold digger.

41. Jiggy, what's wrong with the name "Dorfman"?

42. The ideal wife might just be a Puerto Rician transexual . . . but then they could not really marry in America. Alas . . . it might be the balance needed for the public and the personal.

43. Tacky??? Please, who are you??? She knew Bill was Gay. I have known him for 12yrs...the rumors have always been there....ALWAYS. Many of us that worked with and around him, were hit on, propositioned, and more....(Bad taste, yeah Bill's). Many people came forward and warned her, Bill, I am sure on some level loved her...but also needed a wife that wouldnt ask questions....he got that until like anyone being decieved she gew tired of it...Consulting adults are just that...but its nce to have some honesty in a relationship...and besides...WHO CARES!!

44. I bet I know why she filed. I was on Extreme Makeover and was a patient of the "Dorf". He's the most arrogant bastard I've ever met in my life. There are SO many things he did and said to the "freebies" he worked on that would blow his Hollywood bubble that I could not even believe someone married him, again (met his first wife and kids they appeared to be friends). Let's just say it got so bad he sent flowers to me when I was getting ready for my mini reveal at B2V Salon apologizing because his mouth overloaded his ass.

45. Who cares?? Obviously, you do David....who claims to have known Bill for 12 years. Well, so have I and he's not GAY!!! Just because he's sweet, sensitive and a nice guy doesn't mean he's gay. It sounds like you want him to be gay, so you can go after him. So, David stop being a loser and stop writing about stuff that isn't true. And, yes, you are obsessed with him....get over it!

A friend of Bill's - who has personally known him for 12 years.
