Hank Baskett is believed to have had an affair with a transgender model he picked up online, when his wife of 5 years Kendra Wilkinson was pregnant with their second child. The model has been speaking to the press about their hookup and subsequent meetings, when he paid her to keep quiet, but, if Hank’s behavior is any indication, things at home are just great.

This is the latest celebrity cheating scandal and, for the time being, it seems to have died down a bit because the model, Ava Sabrina London, has said all she had to say on the topic.

In several chats with the tabloids, she gave all the details of her first and only hookup with Baskett, but she also revealed how he panicked and tried to buy her silence because he didn’t want to lose his wife and kids if word of this got out.

Word of this did get out, and with help from London herself. For a few days, Baskett spent the night at a nearby hotel, with insiders saying that Kendra lost it when she found out what he’d done, punched a wall, and tossed her wedding ring into the toilet.

Hank is still wearing his – and proudly showing it off. Paparazzi from TMZ caught up with him out and about the other day and managed to pry a few words from him on the state of his marriage following the cheating scandal.

Video of the chat is available at the link above.

The star is wearing his wedding band and almost making a point of showing it off for the camera. You know what they say, a picture is worth a thousand words so, by flashing the band, he’s doing all the talking without actually saying a word: we’re not getting a divorce.

Baskett also says that he and Kendra are “good” and that they speak on the phone regularly, at least once a day. From his casual chat, we’re to understand that there’s no trouble in paradise, despite the massive media coverage London got for her shocking revelation.

Kendra too emerged in public a couple of weeks ago but she wasn’t wearing her wedding ring or wedding band. The media made a huge fuss about it because it seemed to confirm the report mentioned above about how she’d flushed it down the toilet when she found out Hank had cheated on her.

Then there’s this: certain reports making the rounds claim that some of this marital drama could be shown on Kendra’s reality show. If that turns out to be the case, it would make sense for Hank to lie and say that everything was “great.” What do you think?
