Peter Goodwin of Virginia cheats on wife with former nanny: court papers
They're headed for a 50/50 split. The married son of a powerful Virginia bowling billionaire had a seamy affair with his kids' ex-nanny — and callously informed his wife he wanted a divorce as she held their baby Christmas Day, bombshell court papers claim. The sordid marital strife now rocking one of the Old Dominion State's most prominent families pits Rolex- and race car-loving scion Peter Goodwin, 40, against wife Cara Goodwin, a 40-year-old popular clinical psychologist. Advertisement 6 Peter Goodwin, the son of prominent Virginia billionaire William Goodwin, is divorcing his wife Cara after having an affair with their former nanny, court papers claim. 6 Goodwin allegedly stayed at hotels around the country with his kids' ex-nanny, Annette Lombard, court papers say. Instagram/Annette Lombard Peter — whose uber-successful dad William Goodwin is a former co-owner of the AMF Bowling chain, among a slew of other mega business ventures — kicked off the pair's divorce battle when he delivered his ill-timed big reveal to Cara over the 2023 holiday at their Virginia estate, according to documents obtained by The Post. Advertisement Cara 'sat in front of him holding their four-month-old daughter' as he told her they were through and fled, screaming obscenities while the couple's other three kids watched, read the court papers filed by Cara in Albemarle County Circuit Court. Within six days of leaving his wife, the dad of four and his blond younger honey, former family nanny Annette Lombard, were romping together at the posh Four Seasons Hotel at the Surf Club in Surfside, Fla., the documents allege. Over the next few months, the illicit pair 'engaged in adulterous acts'' everywhere from Jackson Hole, Wyo., to the former couple's Palm Beach, Fla., pad, the papers say. 6 Peter's Instagram page features dozens of sports cars and luxury watches. Advertisement Lombard, now 27, began working for the couple around age 21, starting in 2019 while she was an undergrad at the University of Virginia, court papers say. Beginning in the spring of 2020, Lombard lived with Peter and Cara and the kids for about a year as she cared for the children during the pandemic, according to the documents. She became so close to the kids that they referred to her as their sister, the filing says. That same year, Peter hired Lombard to also work for him at his office — and eventually promoted her to a vice president of his company. Advertisement But by the end of the year, Cara told her husband of her 'growing discomfort regarding the nature of his interactions with'' Lombard, which he 'dismissed,'' the documents say. 6 Cara claims in court papers that Peter told her on Christmas Day 2023 that he was leaving her. Instagram/parentingtranslator Fewer than two years later, in August 2023, Cara had the couple's fourth child. The next month, Peter 'began expressing strong desire for more independence and time away from his family to focus on his own self-care,'' the divorce papers say. Peter's Instagram page, under the username 'timetodrive5,' features the tagline 'just trying to keep the revs high.' It has dozens of posts of sports cars, race cars and luxury watches, and he has nearly 17,000 followers. Cara's Instagram page meanwhile has the username 'parentingtranslator' and says she has a PhD in child psychology. 6 Peter and Cara have four children together, with the youngest just 4 months old when Peter left Cara, court papers allege. Advertisement The page, which has 135,000 followers, features parenting advice, memes and research. Peter's dad, William, retired as the head of investment entities CCA Industries and the Riverstone Group, which has interests in everything from the Kiawah Island Golf Resort in South Carolina to the posh Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, Va. He has been featured in the press through the years for his philanthropic work, donating tens of millions of dollars to cancer research and to education. William was also appointed to the UVA board by former Virginia Gov. George Allen and again by ex-Gov. Bob McDonnell. Advertisement His son filed for divorce from Cara in January 2025, court records show. Peter admitted to the affair in his response to Cara's allegations in her own documents. 6 Peter is known for his love of the finest things in life. Instagram/timetodrive5 The estranged couple was hitched in 2014 and have two daughters, ages 2 and 9, and two sons, ages 5 and 7, court papers show. They have a prenup agreement. Advertisement Cara is seeking half of their marital assets — including from their companies — child support and $500,000 to pay lawyers and experts as she fights the divorce case, the filings show. They currently share custody of their children after working out an agreement on that front in Feb. 27, 2024, the filing says. A rep for Cara and a representative for Peter separately declined to comment. Lombard did not return Post requests for comment. Peter filed a motion last month to seal the divorce case, which Cara's side is opposing.

Tyla, Finn Wolfhard, Sam Nivola and More Toast to the ‘Power of the Youth' at Variety's Young Hollywood Party
It was all glitter and grooves on Thursday night as the entertainment industry's rising stars took center stage at Variety's Power of Young Hollywood party, presented by Sandisk. The Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills morphed into a buzzing summer celebration, where flashing lights, flowing conversation, and fresh talent collided under the stars. The class of 2025 brought serious star power, with global sensation Tyla, 'Stranger Things' favorite Finn Wolfhard, and 'The White Lotus' standout Sam Nivola leading the charge. But this year's Impact Report cast an even wider spotlight, recognizing a dynamic range of up-and-comers — from 'Anora' star Mark Eydelshteyn to rapper 2Hollis, gymnastics icon Simone Biles and beyond. More from Variety Connie Britton, Sam Nivola Mystery Comedy 'Phony' Ordered to Series at Hulu Sam Nivola Breaks Out: 'The White Lotus' Favorite on Getting 'Lost' in Character, Why Hollywood Must 'Create New Stars' and Getting 'Cut Out' of 'Maestro' Variety Music Innovator of the Year PinkPantheress on Her Songs and Performing at Glastonbury: 'I Didn't Know If I Was Gonna Be Able to Get Over My Fear' Digital creators, TikTok trendsetters and Hollywood's brightest mingled on the lawn, sipping, snapping selfies and soaking up the scene. 'The Pitt' stars Supriya Ganesh and Shabana Azeez, 'Wicked's' Marissa Bode, 'Monsters: The Lyle & Erik Menendez Story' actor Nicholas Alexander Chavez, and internet faves Brittany Broski and Reece Feldman brought the energy. Musicians Ivan Cornejo, Sombr, and Remy Bond helped set the vibe as the night turned into a dance-fueled celebration of what's next in music, film and pop culture. Tyla accepted her award thanking her team — most especially her glam squad, 'for getting me snatched on that cover' — for the honor. She had just finished teasing her next album on the red carpet, and caught up with her guests of honor, her father and brother. 'When I was younger, I did not know what I was doing, and I'm still figuring it out, but I had a lot of passion and a lot of belief in myself,' she said on stage. 'I thank my team for believing in me before there was proof that it was gonna work.' With a smile on her face and her award in hand, Tyla closed her speech with an affirmation: 'Power to the youth, power to the young creatives. We killing it, and we're gonna keep on killing it. We the future!' Multi-platform recording artist and songwriter PinkPantheress kicked off the program earlier in the evening with her acceptance of the Variety Music Innovator of the Year presented by Sandisk award. Comedian and host Alec Flynn introduced the award-winning artist by making reference to the viral trend attached to her single 'Illegal' — a standout song on her second mixtape 'Fancy That.' She also teased a collaboration with Jack Harlow, who recently appeared in one of her TikTok videos: 'Give me a date and I'll make sure it comes out on that date,' the singer told Variety's Angelique Jackson on the red carpet. Wolfhard joked that he 'thought this was a roast' when he appeared on stage to accept his recognition, but ended up maneuvering the speech with ease and gratitude for his expansive career. The 22-year-old actor is the third 'Stranger Things' star to appear on a Young Hollywood cover, behind Sadie Sink and Noah Schnapp. Nivola, meanwhile, utilized his time on stage to echo the same sentiments in his cover story: 'Just fucking make movies whenever you can.' 'I'm absolutely not the first person to say this, but we all have 4K cameras in our pockets and you can get a boom mic for whatever, 50 bucks. The people who came before us and innovated and revolutionized did not have access to even a quarter of the stuff that we have access to… I really just want to say, I hope that we can all kind of use those tools and and continue to make shit — preferably longer than 25 seconds.'Best of Variety New Movies Out Now in Theaters: What to See This Week What's Coming to Disney+ in August 2025 What's Coming to Netflix in August 2025

Rose Byrne Talks ‘Platonic' Season 2 And Having ‘A Seat At The Table'
Rose Byrne has always been a reliable source for hearty laughs, from her wide array of character performances in popular movies like Bridesmaids, Neighbors and Spy - as well as on television, previously with her Physical series, and now with her ongoing Platonic comedy series on Apple TV+. Co-starring Seth Rogen, Platonic is about two life-long friends, Will & Sylvia, navigating adulthood together - which often gets in the way of their personal lives and their separate responsibilities. Heading into the second season, which premieres August 6, Byrne, 46, continues to bring her unique blend of sharp comedic timing and her grounded, relatable acting ways to our screens. Sitting down with Byrne for Platonic season two at the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills, I wondered if she, Rogen and their team had any discussions before crafting the new season, about wanting to make sure that this Apple TV+ series did not evolve in the wrong direction. Byrne said, 'Yeah, I was like, what's going to happen? What are the initial ideas you guys have? What are the concepts that we can come up with, and how do we keep this story going? Like the characters are great and you want to spend time with them - but the first season was so sort of specific about the setup, but I think they really did a great job of like kind of amping it up, too. It feels like they are even more chaotic this season and the friendship is even more dysfunctional, if that's possible.' Being not only one of the stars of this Apple TV+ series, but also an executive producer, what exactly does it mean to Byrne, as a human and a creative professional, to now have such agency, ownership and a say within her work at this stage of her career? 'It's really meaningful,' Byrne said, 'You know, you get a seat at the table. It's awesome. You get to weigh-in on casting and creative consulting and ideas, and your opinions and your feelings. It's always important to see how far you've come, from just an auditioning actress and those early days working and trying to get work, to something like this. It's very important to constantly kind of remind yourself of that.' The Australian-born actress has taken on more than just clever comedies throughout her career. From co-starring with Glenn Close for five seasons on the gritty Damages series and working alongside Brad Pitt on the epic Troy production, to her recurring characters in the X-Men films and in the Insidious horror franchise, Byrne has tackled multiple genres. With Platonic, however, I wondered if there is anything about her acting approach and character development in playing Sylvia that she has been able to 'flex' a different acting muscle with this specific performance, compared to her past roles. Byrne said, 'I mean, this is like a pure comedic performance - and Nick Stoller & Francesca Delbanco, the creators, it's an embarrassment of riches. They write such fantastic stuff for Sylvia. It's so driven by her and her chaos and her indecision, and her finding her footing after having a family. It's so fun to have this writing presented to you and these huge comedic set pieces, whether it's the physical comedy or these awkward, excruciating situations she finds herself in. It's not a dark comedy - it's a comedy, comedy - and that's a different muscle to work.' In recent years, Byrne has also had guest appearances on the hit animated series out of Australia, Bluey, voicing Aunty Brandy, a character that deals with the emotional effects of infertility, but ultimately gets her happy ending with a healthy pregnancy. 'It was so meaningful,' Byrne said of her Bluey experiences. 'I was honored to be on that show. The showrunners on that show are extraordinary, and it's become this global phenomenon. So, I was tickled. I was so nervous to do a voice on that. I couldn't believe it. I've got a lot of 'cred' with the children now.' Having worked within the entertainment industry for so many years now and selecting a variety of projects, I was curious if Byrne has noticed her priorities evolving with her interests in the types of characters and stories that she chooses to get involved with lately. Byrne said, 'Oh, of course. No, I mean, without a doubt - and your priorities shift so much. When I have two small kids, [ages] seven and nine. I'm married to an actor [Bobby Cannavale]. We are constantly kind of navigating our schedules - and that is the biggest priority, trying to figure out that stuff. And of course, trying to seek out challenges and great roles. It's always an evolving thing, this business. It's not for the faint of heart.' Between her well-known performance as Helen Harris in 2011's Bridesmaids to her work now on the critically-acclaimed Platonic series, I wondered if Byrne has seen a shift at all in how comedy is perceived today within our society, and what is 'allowed' to be joked about. 'Well, I love the fact that Sylvia is a messy, unconventionally sort of disorganized woman. She's not a powerhouse in a suit and got a secret life. She's like a bit of a regular, relatable character, which I think you've seen done a million times with men in certain domestic situations, but not necessarily with women. There is something about that ordinariness that is extraordinary. So, I really treasure that.' Platonic is not the first time that Byrne has teamed up with Rogen for the screen. They also co-starred in 2014's Neighbors and 2016's Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising alongside Zac Efron. So, how would Byrne describe her years of friendship and her working relationship with Rogen? Byrne said, 'It's lovely. It's really easy. We just immediately on the Neighbors set, I was like - oh, this really works. We have a good thing. We also got along and became friendly, but we've had this really solid working relationship that's been just a joy. So, I'm delighted to have reinvented it with Platonic.' As I rounded out our sit-down conversation together, I left Byrne with my usual, signature interview question - What would you say, Rose, to Sylvia, if you could speak to her, after playing her for two seasons on Platonic so far - knowing her ways, knowing her wants out of life, everything - what do you feel she needs to hear, being the person that knows her best, from the outside in? Byrne said, 'Oh, let go. Loosen up. It's okay. Let go. Let him be.' I interjected, 'What is she letting go of?' She quickly replied, 'Control. I'm actually very not like this character at all. I'm way more hands-off and she's like very super [claws her hands], particularly with this friendship.' I then replied, 'Well, that just means you're a good actor.' Byrne concluded with, 'I hope so - gosh! Knock on wood.'
