<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The rarified world of hedge-fund millionaires was stunned yesterday by the bizarre saga of 67-year-old Bruce McMahan and his long-lost love child, Linda - who were reunited after two decades, allegedly carried on a steamy off-and-on affair for seven years and then got "married" in a hush-hush ceremony in Westminster Abbey. The strange tale of money, incest and betrayal began innocently enough in 1987 when Linda Hodge, the pretty, blond, adopted daughter of a California couple, decided at age 18 to search for her birth mother. A firm that specializes in such matters tracked down Myra Westphall, who contacted Linda"s biological dad, McMahan, according to a story published yesterday in New Times, a newspaper in Broward County, Fla., as well as legal papers and video depositions posted on its Web site. Westphall put father and daughter together and McMahan paid for DNA tests to determine paternity, court documents said. When they showed he was the father, he was overjoyed. So happy that he wrote a memo to his colleagues crowing, "I found my long-lost daughter," an employee said. In 1990, he invited Linda - who fortuitously had changed her name to McMahan - to Greenwich, Conn., where he ran a hedge fund then worth $3 billion. For years they had a father-daughter relationship. She was studying for a Ph.D. in psychology and he helped pay her tuition and set up a trust fund for her. In 1998 - when she was 29 and single and he was 63 and married to his fourth wife - things suddenly changed. She was living, at the time, in her dad"s mansion, and one night he invited her into his bedroom, according to the legal documents, which were generated by five lawsuits stemming from their alleged affair, "marriage" and subsequent break-up. After telling his daughter they"d been married in a previous life, McMahan observed her legs were "a very sexy version" of his own, one deposition said. "He asked me what it would be like to kiss me," she claimed. It didn"t take him long to find out. The two had a hot and heavy make-out session on her bed, the newspaper said. So began a sordid affair that reached its peak in June 2004, when the two went to London for their storybook "wedding." They made the trip even though in 1999, during one of the breaks in her affair with McMahan, Linda married someone else, a man named Sargent Schutt. McMahon toasted the happy couple at their wedding. In 2002, McMahan began his own affair - with a Ukrainian woman named Elena who would eventually become wife No. 5, the legal papers say. But two years later, McMahan, who had separated from Elena, became a couple again with Linda. It"s not clear whether the "marriage" ceremony at the famed abbey in London was meant to be official, or just symbolic. Records in London are murky on whether the person who officiated the ceremony had a legal right to do so. But they exchanged rings and considered themselves married, legal papers said and the New Times reported. Christmas that year was complicated for McMahan. Fearing scandal, he couldn"t spend the holiday exclusively with the brand new "bride" he"d "married" just six months earlier. So he spent it with relatives, including Linda, who no one knew was his secret "wife." Even from their first kiss, McMahan had been aware of the dark depths of his forbidden feelings. He e-mailed Linda in 1998, writing, "Such passions lead men straight to Hell," the newspaper said. In another e-mail, just after their "marriage," he wrote, "Miss you . . . think nasty things about you all the time."</div>http://www.villagevoice.com/news/0640,cramer,74593,6.htmlThere's more O_O"He asked me what it would be like to kiss me," she claimed. It didn"t take him long to find out. The two had a hot and heavy make-out session on her bed, the newspaper said. DUDE!! THATS <u>F</u>UCKING <u>GROSS! </u> :shok:
