Barstool Sports CEO Erika Nardini 'having affair with married squash coach' after founder Dave Portnoy's sex tape leak

BARSTOOL Sports CEO Erika Nardini has allegedly had a secret affair with her married squash coach and the pair planned to "have babies and dogs".

The digital media mogul, 44, has reportedly left her financier husband, Brett Aquino Nardini, for her lover and squash pro Yvain 'Swiss' Badan, 39, after her spouse signed her up for lessons with the sportsman in December.

The pair allegedly rolled in from "lessons" that began at 8pm in the early hours of the morning, raising the suspicions of Badan's wife, middle school teacher Cynthia, Page Six reported.

"Cynthia and Swiss were like the local golden couple," a source told the publication.

"Every waiter and bartender in town knew them and everyone thought, 'Cynthia and Swiss are always so happy.' They were madly in love.

The Swiss National Championship winner and Nardini supposedly began unwinding after hours in the bar of the New Canaan Country Club in Connecticut with two other friends.

PageSix had earlier reported back in April that the pair had been seen canoodling at Barstool's New York headquarters when someone spotted her "run out and kiss another man (who wasn’t her husband). She seemed real excited to see the guy."

According to reports, Swiss' devastated wife then found text messages on January 8 this year suggesting he had left her and their four sons, aged between 17 and 26, during a family trip to Michigan to instead "spend the day in bed" with Erika in New York.

"They were talking about how they were going to have babies and dogs," the source continued.

Swiss was allegedly then fired from his role as the Director of Squash from the high-class country club just days after the affair was exposed.

Cynthia, who also coaches her students squash, filed for divorce in March 2021 in wake of her husbands alleged infidelity.

It has been reported that former AOL CMO Erika is now searching for her own apartment after separating from her banker husband Brett, who she shares two sons, aged 8 and 10, with.

The Sun's multiple attempts for comments from Nardini were unsuccessful.

The Colorado native quickly made a name for herself when joining the renowned sports media company Barstool in 2016.

The New York Post dubbed her the "Most Controversial Woman in Sports" thanks to her outspoken views and popular Barstool podcast, 'Token CEO'.

It is the latest sex scandal to shroud the sports and culture site in recent weeks, after its founder David Portnoy had his sex tape with an Instagram model leaked.

Stocks fell after the explicit video, that Portnoy describe as "a little weird and kinky" was shared online.

He took to the photo-sharing platform to complain about the leak but made clear there was no animosity between himself and Sydney Raines, adding that their encounter was consensual.

"I became aware yesterday that a video has surfaced on the internet and yes, that was me," she wrote. "Its hard to believe that a video from the past is just coming to light but it was never meant to be public."
