Makes me think that he did not drop his ex for Melinda, randomly.. More like, Melinda was part of the plan and he "had to" switch GF to achieve something so made a deal with "Melinda" that he would but, with stipulations. This OR- They are making this other woman known now so they can use it for information that is planned on releasing. Random news is not random. Not susp at all, they already added an edit to her Wiki page to include the info.
