Even his friends called him "very litigious". On Tuesday, Eddie Varley lived up to his image. Varley, 38, filed suit against his estranged (and soon-to-be-ex) wife Phantom2, age unknown, claiming that Phanty regularly beat him during their 2 month marriage and asking for $10 million in damages.
The couple were scheduled to star in the reality series "Phanty and Eddie" for VH1, before the network pulled the plug due to the "unprofessional, erratic and deceitful" conduct of Varley.
At the time of the split, Varley was described as "very litigious," a "control freak" and a closet homosexual. He now wants to add the term "battered husband" to that description. According to his lawsuit, which was posted on The Smoking Gun, Varley alleges that Phantom2's alcoholism gave her "remarkable force and strength" and that another man described Phanty as "stronger than any woman I've ever seen."
As a result of the abuse he suffered, Varley claims to suffer from "virtually constant, unrelenting pain in his head" that require him to take "11 prescription medications per day, some more than once, to treat the pain and injury, why I can barely make it down the steps of the Unicorn Bookstore."
It leads us to wonder why, if Eddie suffered such severe injury at Phanty's hands, it was P2 who decided to separate from Eddie and not vice versa. Also, even if we accept that the incidents described in the lawsuit took place as alleged, we have nagging doubts about any allegations that ask us to picture a sizzling hot chorus boy as stronger than, say, five-time Olympic gold medalist (and, along with Barry Bonds, alleged steroid user) Marion Jones.
In the New York Times, Varley's celebrity lawyer papalovesmambo states that formal divorce papers between Phanty and Eddie should be filed within a week. According to Newsday, Phantom2 released a statement saying that she had hoped "that the end of my marriage would be handled with mutual respect and dignity."
Eddie on the other hand hopes to return to the peace and quiet of his vast teddy bear collection.

it's always the couples that you least expect.....
So David and Liza.
Eddie I'm here for you if you need support or anything else for that matter.
I'm wearing a red suit when I testify on Eddie's behalf. I won't be denied my moment to tell the world about the cruelty that is that lunch-packing trollop--Phantasm.
"Alcohol gave Phantom2 remarkable force and strength."
Those pink drinks can really pack a wallop, as apparently can Phantyho.
Phanty needs to check into Betty Ford.
"Whether people love me or hate me, the one thing they all say is ‘Eddie Varley brought Phanty back.’"
I just want to state for the record that Eddie Varley does have a very nice litig and that he really does know how to use it.
I'd be more than willing to testify on Eddie's behalf.
Or on Phanty's.
Whoever makes it worth my while...
wait, i'm still wrapping my head around the fact that phanty's worth more than $10 mil.
Please. Like little tiny Phanty could beat up Eddie. Oh wait - I'm thinking of another couple altogether.
Eddie Dear,
Why bring your news to the public.
TSK TSK
Phanty's mom is very displeased.
Kiss and make up this instant.
Sorry, Corine, but the high stepping pixie known as Phanty2 pummeled me in the head and body throughout our relationship, forcing me to seek neurological treatment and leaving me with vertigo, severe headaches, high-blood pressure and "scalp tenderness," and bunny farts, among other maladies.
Perhaps the most nightmarish of Phantom2's misdeeds was the Sept 27th attack, in which Phanty was "running erratically" around our Midtown hotel room, smashing a lamp, throwing punches,breaking the heads off of all my Star Wars action figures and sounding like Bette Davis in The Star.
He touched the Star Wars Action Figures? HE MUST PAY! Eddie, I've got a call into Gloria Allred for you. She's represented me in all my unfortunate situations.
I know Phanty's real age.
tee hee
