I watch this show all the time and it drives me crazy.
This guy is traveling the world, getting paid and is married?
Please somebody tell me he's banging daily behind the scenes.I can't stand the thought of being in that position and not pulling nightly.

Bourdain married his high-school girlfriend, Nancy Putkoski, in the 1980s, remaining together for two decades before divorcing; Bourdain has cited the irrevocable changes that come from traveling widely as the cause of the split.

Anthony Bourdain is exactly how I will model my player lifestyle videos. I truly hope one day I can wing him in a foreign country.

Because this forum is somewhat homogeneous when it comes to putting priority on sex in our lives, we tend to be surprised when there are people that do not share this.
Some people are simply not as drawn by this. I know a guy whose major passion in life is sailing, he has little but token interest in women (and he functions very well socially and is a good looking dude).
Not saying Bordain is that kind of guy but we shouldn't assume that everyone has the same sex drive.

That's his ex-wife. He's currently married to Ottavia Busia.

Who knows what he does right now, but I think from his books he swooped mad girls.
Not to mention the cat did tons of drugs and hit rock bottom at one point (or more than one point).
The guy basically has a dream life.
Great comeback story.

Good move Mixx.

This.
It's easy to forget that this lifestyle isn't for everyone and that not everyone is interested in it.
I have to remind myself of this when I assume my friends want the same things I do and I catch myself giving them unsolicited advice.

@ Caligula, But how? This drives me crazy! I just don't believe this is real. Is an imbalance?
Haha. I can relate; I really don't know. Lower sex drive? Insecurity? It's hard to tell.
I have a friend who is very good looking, rich and alpha. Gets approached by hot freaks all the time. He's oblivious to it, has his long-term girlfriend and is happy with that. He's had wild sexual escapades in the past but seems content to check out of the game for now and focus on his business.

I don't think he is messing around at all. He takes his wife to many of his shoots.
He is a tv celebrity with a cooking/travel show. I am sure he has quite a large female following. If he is caught cheating he will be crucified in the media and most likely end up losing his show. Due to the largely female demographic many of these channels have, they won't want to touch him. I think he has way way too much to lose.

Here's another of his wife... I have seen episodes filmed in the morning and he's pretty hungover. What is he doing all night?
Hopefully the same thing that I would.

Did he marry up?

Perfect evidence of why you don't want to bring a foreign wife to America. They become Americanized (ie douchebag clothes, cell phone constantly in hand, throwing up phony gang signs, and sticking out tongues).
I bet if he kept her there she would be sitting at a cafe in Italy, drinking espresso, smoking a cigarette, dressed to the nines in high heels like a lady.

If you've read Bourdain's books you'll see he's a serial monogamist and not a womanizer. I don't think he's cheating on his wife.
I'd bang his wife, but her arms are looking mighty soft in the gang picture above.

Problem is we here believe any man with fame/money/status should have a harem of 20-year-old Russian models. For the current American standard of celebrity marriages, he went up.

She is all over the place in those pics.
There's a good episode of his show where they visit his wife's family in Sardinia. In that episode, she seems pretty cool.

Love Tony Bourdain, and I can't wait to see his episode in Belém.
Deixa que essa fase é passageira, amanhã será melhor você vai ver a cidade inteira seu samba saber de cor!

I would be banging Padma Lakshmi if I were him, she seemed to be quite enamored with him when he appeared on Top Chef.
