Report: Alleged extortionist lived with Dave's mistress; affair happened long ago
According to RadarOnline, the affair happened more than six years ago, before Letterman's son was born. "48 Hours" producer Robert Halderman lived with the "Late Show" staffer whom Dave had an affair with, Radar reports. "Halderman needed money police say and decided to target Letterman," says Radar. "The woman still works on the show but is no longer involved with David." Watch the video: "Late Show" audience laughs as Dave tells extortion tale.
UPDATE: Letterman may have slept with assistant Stephanie
Public records show that "Late Show" star Stephanie Birkitt lived with Halderman. Birkitt, 34, was "Letterman's Girl Friday" whom he would often call in the middle of the show. Stephanie made frequent appearances on "The Late Show" early this decade, but her number of on-air cameos have dropped in recent years.
