DWTS fans shocked after Teresa Giudice grabs mic from Tyra Banks Down and Out in Paradise also reveals that the famous chef was deeply lonely and spent his final days on steroids and drinking. Bourdain was on steroids, drinking until he blacked out, sleeping with prostitutes, and wasn't involved in his 11-year-old daughter Ariane's life, according to the book. He also complained to his ex-wife, Ottavia Busia-Bourdain, 57, about his fans in a text message. He said: ...I hate my fans, too. I hate being famous. I hate my job.... ...I am lonely and living in constant uncertainty.... ...HOPELESSLY IN LOVE' Bourdain also told his ex-wife that he was ...hopelessly in love... with Argento. However, the biography claims that Argento became controlling and that she scrutinized Bourdain and his ex-wife's social media accounts. She'd blow up if she saw pictures of Bourdain with his family, according to the book. Busia-Bourdain reportedly told her ex-husband before an upcoming Father's Day: ...You didn't want me to put a pic that had you in it because Asia would freak out and I have a feeling that will not change anytime soon. ...I'm tired of pretending I don't know you. Or that we are never in the same place,... she said, according to the biography. Bourdain said back: ...I feel you. But I was being honest. The pap 'arazzi ' situation is horrendous. ...Since I left you guys, though, she's freaking out.... GRIEVING LOVER In September of 2018, Argento broke her silence and talked to the Daily Mail about Bourdain. People reportedly accused her of murdering her lover by dancing publicly with Clement just days before Bourdain's death. ...He cheated on me too. It wasn't a problem for us,... she told the Mail. ...But I understand that the world needs to find a reason. I would like to find a reason too. I don't have it.... ...Maybe I would feel some solace in thinking there was something that happened.... Bourdain defended Argento and paid off Jimmy Bennett after the young actor demanded $3.5million from Argento after claiming she sexually assaulted him when he was 17 and she was 37 back in 2013. The chef also slammed Harvey Weinstein, who Argento has publicly accused of sexually assaulting her before. BIOGRAPHY BACKLASH The book paints the troubled chef in a damning light, but family and friends insist it's riddled with inaccuracies. ...Every single thing he writes about relationships and interactions within our family as kids and as adults he fabricated or got totally wrong,... Christopher, Bourdain's brother, told NYT. Argento told NYT that she tried to stop author Charles Leerhsen from publishing her comments, saying: "I wrote clearly to this man that he could not publish anything I said to him." However, Leerhsen claims Argento told him in an email exchange: ...It is always Judas who writes the biography.... He adds that he found plenty of people willing to speak because they had been ...left behind... by the chef-turned-travel reporter. ...A lot of people were willing to talk to me because they were left behind by Tony and by the Tony train,... Leerhsen told NYT. The publishing company Simon & Schuster are backing up the book and it's set to be released on October 11. Read More on The US Sun
