Baseball Wives reality star Anna Benson says estranged husband Kris Benson has left her and their children homeless.
The woman who said she would sleep with the entire New York Mets baseball team if her husband, then-Mets pitcher Kris Benson, ever cheated on her, now says cheating is exactly what he ended up doing.
Anna Benson, star of VH1’s “Baseball Wives” and mother to Kris Benson’s three children, was served with divorce papers in March after she said she discovered evidence he was having an affair.
“I’m very sad about this,” Benson told FOX411 exclusively. “Kris was my whole life. And he left me for someone else and he just abandoned us. I’m scared and I just don’t know what I’m going to do or how I’m going to take care of these kids.”
Kris Benson told FOX411 in an email: “As much as I'd love to comment about these accusations, I think it's best for myself and my children that I let things be handled legally, not through the media.”
Anna claims that when she was recovering from foot surgery early this year, her husband became involved in an affair with one of her best friends.
“This is the second time he’s done this to me,” fumed Benson about her husband, who now works at New York-based Monarch Wealth & Business Management. “I introduced her to Kris because she’s going through a divorce and I wanted to help her by getting someone trustworthy – who I thought would be Kris – to manage her money.”
According to Benson, her husband managed more than her friend’s money.
“The two of them instantly started having an affair,” said Benson. “It started with sexy text messages and that kind of stuff. [My friend and I] were very close. Her mother was my nanny during ‘Baseball Wives’ – that’s how close we were.”
Benson said she discovered evidence of her husband’s alleged affair through a popular social media site.
“She and Kris are both denying the affair, saying it was just ‘inappropriate talk,’” said Benson. “But I picked up his iPad and and I hit the Facebook button and looked at his inbox messages, and there were all of these sexy messages between them. And you just don’t talk with somebody like that that you’re not having sex with.”
Now separated, Benson claims that her husband forced her to sell the family’s 8,000 sq. ft. home in Cumming, Georgia, and that she and her children must vacate the property by August 6.
“Kris told me that he would help me get into another home,” said Benson. “But he tricked me. I would have never sold my house without him telling me that he was going to help me get into another house.”
Benson says that she asked her husband to buy a home in the $300,000 to $400,000 range – less than half of what she says is the selling price of their former home. Instead, Benson claims, her husband suggested that she and their children move into less posh accommodations.
“Kris said that we should move into a $56,000 house that he bought as a flip in the ghetto,” declares Benson. “His attorneys have told my attorneys that I can just move in with my mother. But this is not about me. I’ll sleep on the floor in the dirt – I don’t care. This is about my children having a roof over their heads. I have no income. I’m disabled. I have no way to earn a living. What the hell does he expect? It’s not my mom’s responsibility to take care of his kids.”
Kris Benson reportedly earned over $38 million during his eleven-year career as a starting pitcher with Major League Baseball.
Now, his wife Anna – who signed a prenuptial agreement – claims that she receives $4,000 a month in child support, and has registered her children as “homeless” for the fall semester at their local school.
“I don’t have any documentation to provide to the school in the form of a lease, or a home, or an address, or a utility bill,” claimed Benson. “For me to be able to get them in the school district that is appropriate, I have to register them as being homeless. I can’t give my mom’s information, or they can’t go to that school.”
A Georgia-based attorney tells FOX411 that if someone signs a prenuptial contract, they’re unlikely to receive more financial support without a long, drawn-out legal battle.
“If there’s a prenup that says that she doesn’t get any property, then she wouldn’t get anything, except for what she put in her name,” Mary A. Stearns-Montgomery, founding partner of Atlanta’s Stearns-Montgomery & Proctor explained. “There are plenty of millionaires who only pay $4,000 a month in support.”
For his part, Kris Benson added, “No one wins a ‘he said, she said’ contest. I've built my reputation for years, being fair and reasonable, and the people that know me and the situation will never waver no matter what is said – true or false," he said. "As to specifics though, I'll refrain from making any comments and take the high road.”
Kris Benson’s attorney did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
But Anna Benson insisted that all she wants is a home for her children.
“My heart is broken, because I really loved him,” said Benson. “But now, I just want to be a mother. I don’t need some mansion – I don’t need any of that. I just want a place for my kids.”Jacked from Fox News

When are women going to learn. Stash money. Start businesses. Get your own. The problem is they assume this life style will last forever.
Men get tired of women who don't contribute. What is funny they downgrade when dating another woman. That should tell trophy's wives something. You look good but that won't keep a man.
GET A DAMN JOB like the rest of us! Lazy cow!
Did I read "these kids"? What the hell is wrong with women now a days. I would never say "these kids". What happen to my children?
I totally agree with the first poster. While these broads are out there with personal trainers and shopping their asses off, you need to be stacking some money. Shaunie and Juanita need to get together all of these athletes' wives and hold a convention. Rather than just approaching your man and hitting the roof, play it cool instead. Keep fucking and sucking, him, all the while, be stacking money and getting your attorney and affairs in order.
There is no reason in 2012 for a woman not to handle her business. I'm not married, but when I am, I damn sure plan to have a secret account. How many stories do we have to hear about where this happens to women? If you land a baller, first off, expect his ass to cheat, second, over time you need to be able to put at least $100k away. If this guy made $38mil over 11 years, there is no reason you couldn't manage to put together some bread for yourself.
she's dumb for believing him. a man who cheats has serious character flaws, he's clearly can't be trusted. but on the flip side, it really lets you know the heart of man, that he has millions in his accounts, but couldn't pay off a half a million dollar home for his children's sake. cold hearted men need to be poisoned and killed off.
I agree save half of what he gives you for ur monthly expenses or allowance so when the man wants to leave u have ur rainy day fund.. Also go to school and get a DEGREE that will make u money like EDUCATIONS..
According to her,she comes from money but she used to strip for a living.
Fact: her husband got traded from the Mets,she accused the Mets of Reverse racism in trying to have an all Latino team because their manager at the time was Latino.
She gets $4000 for child support and she is homeless.....She needs to have a seat!!!! It may not be a mansion but she better get a condo and sit the eff down!
I agree with the first comment, save your money. She should have stayed in the house and got a good lawyer. Prenuptial can broken in certain circumstances. If he's worth 36 million she should get 10K or more in child support. Why no spousal? she should get that at least for a few years. She was a dumb stripper with a bad attitude.
I WISH I was getting 4,000 stacks a month in child support! WTH is wrong with this biatch??? With a decent job and that kinda of money she good. Go back to school, do something ANYTHING! 4G's a month and complaining. SMH. You signed the pre-nup and didn't save up!
