Cynthia Shackelford Sues Hubby’s Mistress and Gets $9 Million for Heartache

Countless women could only dream of hitting a jackpot that would send their cheating husband’s mistresses to the poor house. One lucky woman did strike it rich, because of the “severe emotional distress” she suffered, as the result of her two-timing husband’s neglect. Last week, a Greensboro, N.C., court ordered a mistress to fork over a total of $9 million dollars, $5 million in compensatory damages and $4 million in punitive damages, to her lover’s humiliated spouse.

Cynthia Shackelford, 60, sued her husband’s mistress Anne Lundquist, 49, back in 2007, because the jilted wife claims the “other woman” destroyed her 33-year marriage to Allan, her husband.
