Chad Johnson Affair: Who Is Beverly Shiner?
Beverly Shiner, the self proclaimed "other woman" in Chad Johnson and Evelyn Lozada's marriage, recently spoke out regarding her months-long affair with the unemployed NFL star.
On Saturday Johnson, 34 was arrested for allegedly assaulting Lozada, 37, during a dispute over a receipt for condoms. It is understood that the "Basketball Wives" star confronted her husband of just five weeks after discovering the receipt and Shiner's claims suggest that Lozada had every right to be suspicious about Johnson.
"It wasn't just a one night thing, he always said he wanted to move in with me, and said if he had I'd be pregnant by then. He kept asking if I wanted to have more kids," Shiner told RadarOnline.com.

"Once, when I was at his house, I asked what would happen if Evelyn walked in right now, and he said she wouldn't care. He said, 'I'm not doing anything different than what every other man is doing,' he thinks it is fine to cheat. I feel he was completely disrespectful and he led me on," she went on.
Shiner, 30, claims to have met Johnson on Twitter, the same social networking site where her met Lozada in 2010 just a few months before proposing. The former Miami Dolphins wide receiver then allegedly sent her a direct message inviting her out to dinner.
"I Googled him before we met and saw he was engaged, but at the time there were reports that she had broken it off because she thought he was cheating, so I assumed they had split up," Shiner explained.
The mother of two claims that she visited Johnson at his Foxborough, Massachusetts home in January where she found women's toiletries in the bathroom. Despite realizing that Johnson was still involved with Lozada, she proceeded to engage in the affair.
"While I was there he called Evelyn and asked if she could order a pizza to be delivered for him, and even had her pay for it on her credit card," Shiner said. "I thought it was odd and wondered if she was really his fiancée or just a secretary."
Shiner claims that her affair with Johnson began in January and lasted until May when Johnson reportedly stopped responding to her calls and texts after they spent a night together.
"He had asked me to come over so I drove there and knocked on his door and he didn't answer even though I could hear his X Box playing. Then I texted him the next day and he didn't apologize," she said.
"I got upset and told him, 'You are not the guy I thought you were,' to which he replied that he had been sleeping and warned me, 'You're overstepping your boundaries a little bit. I'm not your man, keep your comments to yourself,'" she added.
Johnson married Lozada on July 4 in an intimate ceremony that was filmed for their reality TV show "Ev and Ocho." On Monday, the Vh1 network confirmed that in light of his recent domestic violence charges, the show, scheduled to air in September, had been canceled.
"Due to the unfortunate events over the weekend and the seriousness of the allegations, VH1 is pulling the series 'Ev and Ocho' from its schedule and has no current plans of airing it," the network said in a statement.
Johnson was released from jail on $2500 bail on Sunday following his arrest over the incident and he was ordered to stay away from Lozada, who was hospitalized for her injuries, until the charges are resolved.
