" April 24, 2009  &amp;quot;The petitioner&amp;#039;s husband has been having relations with Elizabeth Jackson on too many occasions to name since hiring her to work on his most recent film.&amp;quot;  The documents stated, in no uncertain terms, that Nathan and I had been involved for months.  The documents went on to say: &amp;quot;The affair is known to everyone in their workplace. The petitioner&amp;#039;s husband recently informed his wife that he was in love with Elizabeth Jackson and she could either stay in the marriage under these conditions or make a different choice.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;You&amp;#039;ve got to be kidding me with this,&amp;quot; I said out loud.  But no one answered.  I tried to reach Nathan all weekend, but to no avail. His voice mail was full and my many emails went unreturned. My many many emails. I didn&amp;#039;t hear a word until Monday morning when everyone in the cast and crew got a group email from the First AD (that&amp;#039;s short for Assistant Director), Tom, who wrote saying that production would be halted for one week: due to a personal emergency. No further explanation.  Every day I checked the papers so scared to my very bones that the story had been broken. It was only a small relief that each day I came up empty \u2014 it seemed to me a matter of time. And, just as I was going completely crazy (and taking Sam with me), last night (very late) my phone rang and NATHAN came up on my Caller ID.  &amp;quot;Liz,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;I am so sorry for calling at this hour. It&amp;#039;s a little earlier in California. And I just heard that Lana named you in the divorce papers. I had no idea.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;Where have you been?&amp;quot; I asked.  &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m still there. Big Sur, California.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;Big Sur?&amp;quot; I said.  &amp;quot;It brings me a feeling of peace to be here, and after Lana told me she was filing for divorce, I got on a plane. I just...turned my phone off, I turned my Blackberry off, I tried to tune out, and ended up here. It helped me get it back together enough to know I can move forward effectively in terms of the movie, in terms of my child.&amp;quot; He paused. &amp;quot;I turned everything back on about an hour ago and saw an email from my lawyer. And the official papers will be arriving here in the morning...&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Nathan, this is truly a nightmare. And I am so sorry for what is happening to you. But I am also incredibly angry that I have been involved,&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;Nothing inappropriate has ever happened between us.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;I know. I get it. Lana is just...she is just posturing. She knows that if I go into court and say she has been unfaithful, she won&amp;#039;t see a penny. But if I was the one who was unfaithful too, she has a shot...&amp;quot; I was quiet.  &amp;quot;The point is that my lawyers are on it. They are countering, and I&amp;#039;m hoping this will all be cleared up by the time we get back to work on Monday.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;How would it be cleared up by then?&amp;quot; I shook my head, as if he could see me. &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t know how I can be at work next week.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;I understand. But Tom has worked it out so that we aren&amp;#039;t filming any of Lana&amp;#039;s scenes, at least early in the week. Please, Liz, for both of our sakes, you should be there. It will make us look\u2026guilty if you&amp;#039;re not.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t care what it looks like, Nathan. My reputation is on the line here. No matter how good or bad it looks. If those papers get out, it will be in the papers. I am raising my nephew and my daughter on my own. That is the type of thing someone can use as ammunition if they want it to be otherwise.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;The papers are sealed. Lana won&amp;#039;t do anything that could be public. She knows it will slay her. It would be too crazy and desperate.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m not so sure she won&amp;#039;t get there\u2026&amp;quot; I paused. &amp;quot;And I don&amp;#039;t know why she chose me. Of everyone in the world she could have chosen.&amp;quot;  This was the first time Nathan was quiet. Finally he started to speak. &amp;quot;Liz, give me a little time to make this right. I will make this right.&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;I hope so. In the meantime, I have contacted my lawyer too. Will you please send me your lawyers&amp;#039; contact information so that they can speak?&amp;quot;  &amp;quot;Of course. See you Monday?&amp;quot; he said.  &amp;quot;Okay,&amp;quot; I said. &amp;quot;See you Monday.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
