I'm sure this will come as a complete shock to all of you, but it turns out that Paris Hilton's ex Doug Reinhardt was scamming her the whole time. Supposedly he was overheard referring to her as his "meal ticket for life" and bragging that she was smitten with his romantic "skills." Please. Like she wouldn't be "smitten" by a dildo on a string. Oh yeah, and he was cheating on her and robbing her blind:Separately, a source in Los Angeles who is very close to Hilton tells me Reinhardt's unchecked spending habits -- discovered by Paris' accountants -- were an issue. They found a number of purchases charged by him to her credit cards, without her permission. Among the charges were clothes, jewelry (including a couple of watches) and some unspecified artwork.
Beyond that, a Hilton check of Reinhardt's cell phone uncovered some text messages leading the celebutante to suspect the guy who called her ''the love of my life'' was actually seeing other women. (Source)
