Chad ‘Ochocinco’ Johnson Scores Dates On Twitter, Third Mistress He Picked Up There Is Revealed!

By Debbie Emery – Radar Reporter
Chad ‘Ochocinco’ Johnson‘s addiction to Twitter led to the downfall of his NFL career, and now RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting that his sleazy habits on the social networking site doomed his marriage to Evelyn Lozada before she had even walked down the aisle.
“He is constantly scouring Twitter flirting with women, and if he sees someone he likes he has them direct message their number to him so they can meet up in person,” a source exclusively told RadarOnline.com.
EXCLUSIVE: Check Out Chad Ochocinco & Third Mistress’ Flirty Tweets
The disgraced former NFL star has been carrying out a number of illicit affairs with several women for the past year, said the insider, during which time he took them to his favorite bars, brazenly tweeted with them and even let one girlfriend drive the Smart Car that Basketball Wives star Lozada bought him!
The raunchy revelations come after Chad’s bombshell week that started with his arrest for domestic violence on August 11 following an explosive fight with Evelyn, who filed for divorce three days later, which led to him being cut from the Miami Dolphins and fired by sponsor Zico coconut water.
RadarOnline.com was the first to report that a Boston woman named Beverly Shiner claims she had a heated affair with the former New England Patriots player from January to May this year after she met him on Twitter while Evelyn was busy planning their 4th of July dream wedding, and now it is clear that she was far from the only person he cheated with.
PHOTOS: Sexy Stars Who Have Been Arrested
As we previously reported, the six time Pro Ball player was also allegedly dating stripper Amber Priddy from Atlanta, Georgia, who he paid $2,000 each month to cover her rent, but now that Johnson is unemployed and facing numerous legal and financial woes, his girlfriend has been evicted from her home.
“Chad has been having an affair with another woman from Miami named Bianca Zuluaga for the past year,” our insider revealed, and the sexy brunette seems hell bent on telling the world about their relationship on Twitter.
“Whenever she refers to ‘chocolate’ in her tweets, she is talking about Chad and admits that she has ‘Jungle Fever’ and loves chocolate men,” said the source.

Just two days before Chad walked down the aisle with Evelyn in an exotic wedding on the Caribbean island of St Martin, Bianca tweeted: “Some people on my Twitter need to stop hating my preference for chocolate!!!” And in earlier postings she expressed her desire to see her tall, dark man. “I can’t take this anymore I need chocolate!!! My body is going into shock!”
“Chad would mostly spend time with Bianca while Evelyn was out of town on her book tour or filming,” explained the source. “They would even meet at David’s Café in Miami, which is one of his regular hangout joints and they didn’t go to any lengths to hide the fact that they were there together.”
On June 16, the football player tweeted from the restaurant that he was watching ESPN there, and less than an hour later his alleged lunch date wrote: “David’s Café, I’m back! And I’ve missed you… but the company sucks forever tweeting.”

Johnson’s addiction to the social networking site, which included him live tweeting on his wedding day, was part of his career downfall and added to the premature demise of his football career, with Dolphins coach Jim Philbin severely reprimanding the wide receiver for it during his brief time on the team.
Another of Bianca’s telling tweets from June expresses her joy ride in a Smart Car, the same electric vehicle that Evelyn bought for Chad that ended up being the scene of his domestic abuse crime after she found a receipt for condoms in it.
Even the final nail in the coffin of the tumultuous couple’s marriage seems to be a source of amusement for his alleged mistress, who tweeted on Wednesday: “I just realized that my car is full of receipts… *cleaning it out.*”
When asked by a follower if there were “any receipts for condoms? hahahahaha…” she said: “Naww just food! Lol I’m a fatass,” to which her friend replied, “yea those are in his car, remember! Ha.”
PHOTOS: Celebs Who Have Done Jail Time
While the former Dancing With The Stars contestant legally changed his name from Johnson to Ochocinco in 2008 to represent his number 85 jersey liked to think he knew how to speak Spanish, it was actually his Latino mistress who wrote multi-lingual messages on his Twitter page for him, according to our insider.
But, it seems that even the stunning beauty couldn’t keep Chad away from his first love, football, and on June 10 he was excited for a reunion on the field. “Funny I’m working out at my highschool alma mater for the first time since 1996…Talk about memories with coach Jim Krol,” he wrote, while Zuluaga bitterly complained: “Watching people train at beach high wasn’t necessarily what I had in mind for a Sunday.”
Chad’s entire relationship with Lozada was chronicled on Basketball Wives and VH1 had planned to air a wedding special called Ev & Ocho next month, but the reality TV romance didn’t phase his mistress.
“Bianca knew all along that he was with Evelyn, but she didn’t care,” claims the source. “She agreed not to say a word.”

Caribbean Nation Demanding Chad Johnson Return $90,000 It Paid To Have His Wedding There!

By Jon Boon – Radar Reporter
Chad Johnson’s troubles have gone from bad to worse. The government of Saint Martin has said it expects a refund of the money it spent on the football star’s wedding.
The Caribbean island nation agreed to foot part of the bill for Chad’s nuptials with Evelyn Lozada anticipating that the publicity generated from the duo’s reality TV wedding special would bring more tourists.

But a month after the couple was handed $90,000 to celebrate their big day, a domestic violence incident in which Chad left Evelyn with a cut forehead, had the Basketball Wives star filing for divorce.
Saint Martin Finance Minister Roland Tuit said, “When someone is investing in business it’s a risk they are taking and if something happens then they will have to deal with the consequences. Naturally, we have a contract with Johnson and Lozada and that contract has some clauses inside of it and St. Maarten will use those clauses if necessary.”

According to the Saint Martin News, Prime Minister Sarah Wescot Williams was against making money available for Chad’s big day.
If the contract isn’t respected and VH1 doesn’t ever air the Ev & Ocho wedding special, the Saint Martin government will take legal action and demand its $90,000 back.

And it seems likely that could happen, as RadarOnline.com previously reported, their VH1 reality show was canceled in light of the NFL player’s arrest for allegedly physically attacking his new wife on August 11.
“Due to the unfortunate events over the weekend and the seriousness of the allegations, VH1 is pulling the series Ev & Ocho from its schedule and has no current plans of airing it,” announced the network in an e-mail statement to RadarOnline.com.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the altercation started when the couple was driving home from dinner and Evelyn found a receipt for condoms in the car. The argument turned physical, Lozada told cops, and her husband head-butted her!
“She has a pretty good-sized laceration on her forehead,” Davie, Florida Police Capt. Dale Engle told The Miami Herald. The six-time Pro Bowl receiver was released from jail on $2,500 bond on August 12 after being charged with simple domestic battery, a misdemeanor.

Chad’s misery was complete 24 hours later when his contract was terminated by the Miami Dolphins.
On top of all of his other problems, a lien was launched on August 7 by a builder who worked on Chad’s Florida home that says the now free agent owes him $130,000.

Jacinth Preston claims that the money is for “salary, car insurance, cleaners, landscaping, decorating.”
The legal papers says that if Chad doesn’t pay Preston’s fees soon, his house could be foreclosed on.
