A dangerous liaison

Sheesh the claws are really out for Matthew Newton this year.

Ok the NYE antics were more fun for those in the studio than those watching at home. But now someone’s gone and leaked a story that he allegedly assaulted former girlfriend Brooke Satchwell after a bitter break-up. If you look closely at the story you’ll see this happened in October, when Brooke was shooting Dangerous.

So why is the story making the press now, the same week as Dangerous’ debut? Seems a tad too coincidental….We’ve all reacted badly to a break up at one time or another. Matthew and Brooke both seem like nice kids. Here’s hoping they can remain so.

Update: Newton and NOVA FM agree not to start a new radio show amid the media flurry. (Jan 15). More here.
