Even if you don’t believe all of the stories about Bobby Flay’s wandering eye, surely all of the divorce drama stories have turned you against him? Because Flay sounds like such a massive douchebag. The kind of douchebag who cancels all of their joint credit cards as soon as paperwork is filed. The kind of douchebag who publicly blames his estranged wife’s health problems on a botched boob job. Obviously, Stephanie March’s people are leaking most of this damaging information about Flay but even in the war of leaked information, I just feel sorry for March for all that she’s put up with over the years. Anyway, the latest salvo in March’s efforts to throw out their prenup: Flay bought March a champion horse as a gift and Flay pocketed the winnings.
Bobby Flay’s estranged wife says Bobby is so gross he gave her a racehorse as an anniversary gift and pocketed more than a hundred thousand dollars in purses.
Stephanie March claims in her divorce case Bobby bought her “Dad’s Crazy” back in 2009 for their 4th wedding anniversary. Turns out the equine was a champ, raking in $130k in winnings. Stephanie claims when it came to the horse Bobby was a hog, not only keeping the purse money but selling the horse for $60k and pilfering every penny.
As we previously reported, March and Flay have been at each other’s throats in an ugly divorce battle that just gets uglier. She wants the prenup set aside, claiming it’s grossly unfair. As for the horse scratch, Flay admits he registered it in her name, but denies lining his own pockets with the winnings. Giddy up.

This is one of the better arguments March has made for a more equitable division of property and assets. This gets to the heart of just what kind of partnership there was in their 10-year-marriage. Obviously, when you’re married and in love, you can easily say “what’s mine is yours and what’s yours is mine.” But if you give your wife a horse as a gift and then pocket the profits from that gift, then it gets pretty tricky. I seriously don’t understand why Flay hasn’t made March a settlement offer.
