David Letterman Apologizes to His Wife Regina Lasko -Photos and VIDEO

[David Letterman Apology to Wife, Regina Lasko, Video]

Last week, talk show host David Letterman used his show to come clean about his reported affairs with female staffers. Naturally, he did this only after he received threats from Robert “Joe” Halderman, a former Late Show producer, who tried to extort $2 million from the host.

Despite efforts to remain serious, Letterman’s audience continued to laugh as he revealed the exortion plot against him.

And although the American public seems to have forgiven Dave’s infidelity, his wife, Regina Lasko, does not seem to agree.

While taping two shows on Monday, PopEater reports that Letterman issued the following on-air apology to his wife:

Via Radar:

“…the other thing is my wife, Regina. She has been horribly hurt by my behavior, and when something happens like that, if you hurt a person and it’s your responsibility, you try to fix it. And at that point, there’s only two things that can happen: either you’re going to make some progress and get it fixed, or you’re going to fall short and perhaps not get it fixed, so let me tell you folks, I got my work cut out for me.”

Seriously Dave? You think the best way to apologize to your wife for playing hide-the-salami with your 20-something staff members is to remind everyone again of what you did?

It’s getting as ridiculous as Spenser and Heidi demanding privacy.

David Letterman Extortion Story – Video

A CBS producer was arrested yesterday after trying to extort $2 million dollars from David Letterman. Robert Halderman, a 51 year old Emmy Award winning producer who was behind “48 Hours,” threatened to go public with torrid tales of Letterman’s work related sexual conquests. The “Late Show” host pursued police involvement and handed over a fake check.

After the incident PopEater reported that David decided to go public before the media got a hold of it and ripped him apart. Smart. Very smart. During last night’s show he explained the entire situation that started about 3 weeks ago and admitted to having sex with some of his colleges.

“In the back seat of my car, there’s a package that I don’t recognize. What this is, is a guy is going to write a screenplay about me and he’s going to take all the terrible stuff that he knows about my life and he’s going to put it into a movie unless I give him some money,” Letterman explained to the audience.

He continued on explaining that Halderman was arrested.

“This morning, I did something I’ve never done in my life,” Letterman told viewers. “I had to go downtown and testify before a grand jury. This whole thing has been quite scary,” he said. “I had to tell them how I was disturbed by this. I was scared for my family. I felt menaced by this man.” Then, Letterman added, “I had to tell them all the creepy things I had done.” The audience roared with laughter. “Now why is that funny?” Letterman asked.

“Now of course we get to what was it was – we get to all the creepy stuff,” Letterman said, taking a more serious tone. “I have had sex with women who work for me on this show.” Letterman said the grand jury asked if the accusations were true.”Yes, I have,” was his answer.

“Would it be embarrassing if it were made public? Perhaps it would – especially for the women,” he joked. “But that’s a decision for them, if they want to go public and talk. It’s been a very bizarre experience,” Letterman added. “I feel like I need to protect my family. I need to protect myself and I hope to protect my job.”

What’s the big deal? So he dipped his pen in the office ink. Who hasn’t. I bet someone is “dipping” right now on the copy machine on the second floor somewhere out there. It’s no like he kicked a kitten, stole Taylor Swift’s moment of glory or slapped a nun.

UPDATE – Name dropping has begun. Stephanie Birkitt has been spilling the beans. She was a former employee of the Late Show and Joe Halderman’s latest girlfriend. Photos of Stephanie Birkitt are below.
