Charles Phillips and YaVaughnie Wilkins Billboard

A scorned mistress gets revenge via billboard."]
We've all heard of the scorned wife in the extra-marital affairs of men - but the scorned mistress? After engaging in an eight-year affair, YaVaughnie Wilkins, got revenge when she learned her longtime lover, Charles E. Phillips, president of Oracle, and a member of Barack Obama's Economic Recovery Advisory Board, had reconciled with his wife.

Wilkins posted billboards in three major cities which displays her and Phillips in happier times, with the captions “You are my soulmate forever!” and “Charles & YaVaughnie.” The billboards, which cost Wilkins an upwards of $250,000, were posted in Times Square, Atlanta and in San Francisco. Wilkins lives in San Francisco and Phillips, whose homebase is in New York,  owns a home there and Oracle's headquarters are also based there.

Phillips' wife, Karen, filed for divorce in February 2008, but  the couple have apparently  reconciled.

In a statement Thursday, Phillips said, “I had an eight-and-a-half-year serious relationship with YaVaughnie Wilkins. My divorce proceedings began in 2008... The relationship with Ms Wilkins has since ended and we both wish each other well."  

The New York Post apparently went to Phillips' door for a comment on the billboards. When Phillips opened the door he said, "Oh man. I'm sorry," then he closed the door.
