...brief describes Spencer as a serial adulterer whose unfaithfulness began less than six months into their 1989 marriage (the British journalist with whom he had that initial liaison sold the story of their affair to the tabloid News of the World in 1991). Lockwood's lawyer said Spencer had strung together as many as 12 love affairs. He was most recently linked to the fashion editor and former Calvin Klein model Josie Borain...
