“#Inside Phil Collins and ex-wife Orianne Cevey’s heated splits<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n Phil Collins was at his $40 million Miami home in July when he received a text from his girlfriend Orianne Cevey \u2014 who is also his ex-wife \u2014 telling him she had met someone else.<\/p>\n

They were both in the house at the time. But Cevey, 46, could not bring herself to tell him in person, an insider told The Post.<\/p>\n

Instead, she sent the singer a message which read: \u201cI want to find happ<\/a>iness with somebody else, you have met him, his name is Thomas,\u201d according to the insider.<\/p>\n

Cevey was allegedly only prompted to tell Collins, 69, all about Thomas Bates after her two sons with the singer \u2014 Nic, 19, and Matthew, 16 \u2014 spotted her canoodling with this new man at a Fourth of July bash.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know how Orianne met Bates, but she had apparently brought him to a couple of events. There was a July fourth barbecue where the boys saw them together and apparently the boys said \u2018Mom, you better tell Dad about this, or we will,\u2019\u201d the insider claimed.<\/p>\n

Collins was left \u201cshocked \u2026 and feeling like a bit of a fool\u201d \u2014 and even more so after finding out that Cevey had secretly married 31-year-old Bates on Aug. 2, according to a friend. The couple wed at the Graceland Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas with an Elvis impersonator officiating.<\/p>\n

What ensued next \u2014 including Cevey reportedly holding Collins\u2019 waterfront mansion \u201chostage\u201d with armed guards on the premises \u2014 has pushed their relationship back in the headlines.<\/p>\n

Cevey is now set to file a counterclaim to Collins\u2019 recently media<\/a>ted suit to \u201cevict\u201d her, in a Miami court this week. In it, she plans to allege that Collins is \u201cimpossible to live with\u201d and has become \u201cwithdrawn,\u201d as she battles to get half the home they bought in 2015. She will also detail the injuries, including falling on his head, that have caused the singer to be rushed to hospital over the past few years.<\/p>\n

A source close to Collins said: \u201cThe man has a serious neurological problem that requires him to take daily medication and this means he does fall sometimes on stage.\u201d<\/p>\n

The seven-time Grammy winner has also spoken about his struggles with alcoholism, saying in 2016 that he ended up in intensive care. \u201cA doctor said to my girlfriend at the time \u2026 \u2018Is Mr Collins\u2019 will in order?\u2019\u201d he told Yahoo News<\/a>: \u201cThat is when I finally got better because the guy said I was going to die.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collins had to retire from drumming in 2011 after injuring a vertebrae in his neck, leaving him with crippling nerve damage. He has been seen in public with a cane and also in a wheelchair. In May, he fell backward off a chair while watching his son Nic perform a drum solo in North Carolina.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s currently in the UK in rehearsals with Genesis,\u201d added the close Collins source. \u201cIf he was in that much of a state he would not be able to function.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collins is watching the drama with his ex play out \u201cwith increasing disbelief,\u201d said the insider. \u201cHe thought things were pretty good \u2026 then it all started unravelling.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Phil
Phil and Cevey shared his Miami home. Collins tried to evict her after she moved her new husband in.<\/span>SplashNews.com<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The pair started dating when Cevey, who is from a Swiss-Thai background, was just 21 and hired to be Collins\u2019 translator during the singer\u2019s 1994 tour of Switzerland.<\/p>\n

They wed in 1999 \u2014 she was his third wife \u2014 and had their sons. (Collins also has three children, including actress Lily Collins, from his previous marriages.) When the two called it quits in 2008, Collins paid out $45.76 million, or \u00a325 million \u2014 a record amount in the UK at the time.<\/p>\n

But before the divorce was finalized, Cevey had started dating banker Charles Fouad Mejjati, whom she later married and had a son with, nine-year-old Andrea. In 2015, however, things took a dramatic turn that brought to mind the title of one of Collins\u2019 hit songs: \u201cAgainst All Odds.\u201d Cevey has said she left her husband to go back to Collins, setting off a bitter divorce battle with Mejjati.<\/p>\n

Collins, meanwhile, dumped Dana Tyler, his girlfriend of 10 years and a CBS news anchor in New York City, for Cevey. Tyler was said to be heartbroken and took three months off work for \u201cpersonal reasons.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collins said: \u201cIt\u2019s great to be back with Orianne. We had a wonderful life when we were together. Then we lost the plot for a little bit and got separated.\u201d Cevey told the Mail on Sunday that they got back together after she was nearly paralyzed from back surgery in 2014, which left her contemplating suicide. \u201cI realized I never wanted to be apart from him again,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m grateful we have this second chance at love.\u201d<\/p>\n

Said the insider: \u201cBeing Phil\u2019s girlfriend is a good gig. You get to live in a $40 million mansion, drive expensive cars, fly on private jets and go to A-list parties. You get to use his credit card, all kinds of good stuff.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, Orianne liked that, but apparently she was not satisfied just being his girlfriend and wanted to go out\u201d and be with other men.<\/p>\n

One unlikely person looking out for him is male escort Preston Thompson.<\/p>\n

The man has a serious neurological problem that .\u2009.\u2009. means he does fall sometimes on stage.<\/p>\n

\u00a0–\u00a0Close Phil Collins source on the singer<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Sun recently reported that Cevey had had an affair with 29-year-old Thompson last year. He claimed that she whisked him off on a private jet to the Bahamas and took him as her date to Sir Elton John\u2019s Oscars party. He said he also enjoyed visits with her in Miami during their secret 14-month tryst.<\/p>\n

\u201cOrianne is trying to ruin Phil\u2019s life. He took care of her, gave her millions of dollars, and now she wants more,\u201d Thompson told The Sun. \u201cI think she still wants to live that rockstar life, but Phil is done with that and has settled down.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe has treated Phil like he is lower than dirt. She is two-faced.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thompson added: \u201cShe said that they hadn\u2019t had sex for so long and, although it sounds really messed up, she said that he never showers \u2014 he smells. Orianne wanted to have sex all the time, but with younger people than Phil.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lawyers for Collins declined to comment.<\/p>\n

Thompson said he broke up with Cevey after finding texts in her phone from another man (not Bates). He added that he texted Collins to let him know what Cevey was up to but never heard back.<\/p>\n

Following Cevey\u2019s text to Collins about finding love with Bates, the singer hired Florida attorney Jeffrey Fisher and, The Post is told, Cevey was offered a \u201csmooth transition\u201d to move out of the Miami home they shared.<\/p>\n

\u201cPhil didn\u2019t know this would be messy,\u201d said the insider. \u201cHis lawyer sent Orianne a letter, basically saying, \u2018We wish you well, but obviously, you can\u2019t live in the house, you can\u2019t use Phil\u2019s credit cards and cars. But here\u2019s what we\u2019re willing to do \u2014 you can stay in the house until the end of September [2020] and here\u2019s a bit of money to help you get a rental and you can stay on the health insurance.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut the next thing was, they found out she had bought a house in Vegas \u2026 and then somebody smart at the lawyer\u2019s office said, \u2018Well, if she\u2019s got a house, then we should check the marriage records.\u2019 And they went, \u2018Holy s\u2013t, she got married!\u2019<\/p>\n

She moved Bates into Collins\u2019 home and said she could not be out by the end of September, alleging that Collins had promised he would support her if they split up before their youngest son turned 18.<\/p>\n

But, said the insider, \u201cOrianne is married! Phil is under no obligation to give her a penny. He already gave her more than $40 million [in their 2008 divorce] and the boys are looked after with trusts of their own.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collins offered Cevey another month to stay in the house and flew to the UK, where he has been in rehearsals for a Genesis tour. He planned to return to Miami for the holidays and expected Cevey would be gone.<\/p>\n

However, Cevey\u2019s legal team struck with a bid to get millions more from the star.<\/p>\n

In court documents filed in Miami Dade County small claims court and seen by The Post, Collins\u2019 legal team applied for an injunction to get his ex out, only for her to take the house \u201chostage.\u201d Included are statements from a broker allegedly denied access by Cevey to the house, which is now on the market. A security expert gave an affidavit that he was forced by a Cevey employee to remove Collins\u2019 password from the security system as three armed guards stood by.<\/p>\n

Following recent mediation, it was agreed that Cevey and Bates would move out by the end of January. However, The Post has learned that, in the pending counterclaim, Cevey will argue that Collins verbally promised to give her half of the house in exchange for her leaving Mejjati.<\/p>\n

As for the $45.76 million divorce money she first received from Collins, the insider said: \u201cI think she made bad investments.\u201d
Cevey\u2019s attorney Richard Wolfe told The Post: \u201cOrianne has respected Phil as the father of her children and chosen to let this process play out in the court of law versus in the media. Orianne will not be frightened away from what is hers and what she was promised.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOrianne is going to continue making ridiculous and baseless allegations because she thinks that attempting to embarrass him by making false claims is going to get her more money,\u201d said the close Collins sources. \u201cAnd it\u2019s not.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
