David Duchovny Denies Affair with Tennis Instructor

X-Files star David Duchovny denied the rumors according to which he cheated on his wife, actress Tea Leoni. The rumor hit the media and exploded on the Web shortly after the actor finished his rehabilitation program for sex addiction.

Duchovny also said he plans to take the Daily Mail to court for claiming that he had an affair with 28-year-old tennis instructor Edit Pakay. However, according to the actor’s lawyer, the tennis instructor swore in an affidavit that she wasn’t romantically involved with the “Californication” star David Duchovny.

"Yeah, we played tennis and we were playing partners and friends," Pakay told E!Online. "There is no romance, and we are just friends. No love, nothing. That is all I have to say."

Pakay’s statement according to which she had no affair with the X-Files star came shortly after the actor split from his wife and followed a report from the Daily Mail which linked her with Duchovny.

The rumors about an alleged affair between the two were also denied by Duchovny’s lawyer Stanton “Larry” Stein. The lawyer told E!News that he spoke to the tennis instructor before and after the Daily Mail’s report and she assured him that there was nothing romantic between her and the actor.

Stein was contacted by a person from the Daily Mail which wanted a statement from Duchony’s lawyer for the report. Stein said he refused to comment and told the person, Caroline Graham, not to go with the report because it was false.

“I advised her that it was false and not to run with it, and she went ahead with it anyway,” he said according to E!Online.

Pakay, a tennis instructor at the Malibu Racquet Club, reportedly swore in an affidavit and signed under penalty of perjury that she does "not have romantic feelings toward him and, based on our interactions, I believe that David Duchovny does not have romantic feelings toward me.” She also said that she last saw Duchovny in November, 2007.
