reporter and former swimsuit model apparently courted two beaus while she was in Baghdad, and has been labeled a homewrecker for allegedly destroying the marriage of a civilian contractor there, sources said.<\/p>\n<p>Passions got so hot in the combat zone that one of her lovers, Joe Burkett, brawled in a Baghdad &quot;safe house&quot; with her other paramour, CNN war reporter Michael Ware, a source said.<\/p>\n<p>The wife of Burkett, a US Embassy worker, claims the sultry 37-year-old correspondent seduced him while bullets flew overhead.<\/p>\n<p>Burkett&#8217;s wife, Kimberly, also accuses Logan of teaming up with him to take her 3-year-old daughter away, according to the source.<\/p>\n<p>A close pal of Logan, who confirmed the allegations to The Post, said Burkett&#8217;s marriage to Kimberly was already finished six months before they sparked up a relationship.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;She is not the cause of their divorce,&quot; the friend told The Post yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;It&#8217;s a stunning turn of events for the respected journalist, who once told The Washington Post that she &quot;has no social life.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, CBS announced, without a hint of irony, that she was given a new Washington assignment as chief foreign-affairs correspondent. She joined the network in 2002 and became a &quot;60 Minutes&quot; correspondent in 2006.<\/p>\n<p>The network touted her as the only American reporter who was in Baghdad when the United States invaded in 2003.<\/p>\n<p>Logan was born in Durban, South Africa. She has been going through a divorce from her husband of nine years, Jason Siemon, a former European-league basketball player.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the New York Post: By TODD VENEZIA BATTLE OF THE SEXES: &quot;60 Minutes&quot; star Lara Logan, seen riding a tank in Iraq, allegedly had two paramours at once &#8211; one of whom, CNN&#8217;s Michael Ware, brawled over her honor, &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/?p=3315\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[225,20],"tags":[9884,9885,9882,9881,31562,9883],"class_list":["post-3315","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-adultery","category-journalism","tag-affairs-correspondent","tag-battle-of-the-sexes","tag-cnn-war","tag-joe-burkett","tag-lara-logan","tag-todd-venezia"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3315","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3315"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3315\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3315"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3315"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3315"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
