I had never heard of this bloke (or his foundation) before today, but has anyone here had any dealings with him? He sounds like a monster!

 

His organisation's idea is good (delivering medicine etc to remote Pacific islands) but the way he treats women is appalling.

I read that earlier today. Good luck to him getting anyone on his "love boat" after all that sleaze.

Unsurprisingly, he pulled his webpage and company FB page after lunch today. Looks like he won't be doing another trip this year.

 

Also - "The Love Boat": LOL! That was clever!
