Megan Barry: Nude Photos of Nashville Mayor Found on Bodyguard"s Phone?
Earlier this month, Nashville Mayor Megan Barry confessed that she engaged in an extramarital affair with Sgt. Robert Forrest, the man she paid at the time to serve as her personal bodyguard.
In making this admission, Barry said she intended to remain in office.
But a new piece of this burgeoning scandal may make it difficult for her to do so.
“I know that God will forgive me, but that Nashville doesn’t have to,” Barry said during a news conference three weeks ago, adding:
“And I hope that I can earn their trust and I can earn your trust back, and that you will forgive me.”
Barry, who is in the middle of her first term, said the affair began a few months after she started her job.
Both Barry and Forrest were married at the time of their relationship, which both now insist is over.
However, the controversy surrounding their dalliance may only be beginning… and this is why:
On Thursday, state investigators discovered one naked photo and one partially nude photo of a woman on Forrest’s cell phone.
According to court documents, these photos were snapped while Forrest’s timesheet stated he was working… and also during the time in which he and Barry were knocking proverbial boots.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has NOT identified the woman in the photos…
… But an agent says (via a sworn affidavit) that the black purse in one snapshot matches the black purse Barry is seen holding in a different photo found on Forrest’s phone.
These two pictures were shot last May and October, on days that Barry’s travel schedule shows she was on separate Washington trips.
In response to this latest aspect of her scandal, Barry said she’s unaware any such photos of her exist and that the allegations surrounding them are “very troubling and infuriating if true.”
We’re not really sure what she means.
We think she’s saying that she never posed for said photos or have anyone permission to include them in emails.
(Authorities discovered the snapshots while coming through Forrest’s email, which included 260 deleted chats between Forrest’s phone and Barry’s phone number, as well as 35 deleted call logs.)
“While I have not seen the photos in question, if they were of me, they were taken without my knowledge or permission and a complete invasion of my privacy,” Barry said in a statement this week.
Forrest was paid overtime on each of the days the photos were taken, according to the court documents.
And this is where the scandal moves from something for celebrity gossip websites to laugh over to something for that may cause authorities to file charges.
Was Barry using tax payer money to finance her affair?
Did she give preferential monetary treatment to her lover?
(Forrest’s overtime pay increased by 83% since Barry took office, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says. The agency compared that with a colleague whose overtime increased 49%.)
“Nothing in the affidavits released today … indicates that I have committed any actions that violate the law,” Barry said in her statement Thursday.
She added: “If any violations of the law occurred, they were in violating my personal rights.”
Yeah, that’s it, Megan Barry.
You’re the victim here.

Connie Britton Exits Nashville: What Did She Say?
Rayna James is no more, you guys.
After months of speculation, we finally got official confirmation that Connie Britton has left Nashville in her rear-view mirror.
That confirmation came in the form of the character dying due to complications from a car crash.
She had only barely survived a knife attack from a deranged stalker before being hurt in the car crash.
The horrible thing about all of it was that viewers were fooled into thinking Rayna was going to pull through and sing another day.
The final scene with Deacon, Maddie, and Daphne singing a song to her was too much to handle.
She woke up one last time, before flat lining.
It’s great when TV series can surprise their audience, but this was a twist too far for most fans.
Connie Britton took to Instagram to wave goodbye to her character in a post that would make anyone cry.
The lengthy Instagram post reads:
Thank you, Rayna Jaymes. For your magic and your dignity. And thank you to all the creators of Rayna Jaymes, for there were many. Callie Khouri, who gave her life. Deacon, Maddie, Daphne, who shaped her as her family. Teddy, Tandy, Lamar too.
Juliette, Scarlett, Bucky and the ones who crafted her into a business woman. Along with countless other compatriots and combatants. And then, of course, the crew of “Nashville” who brought her to life, every crew member in every department who made Rayna live each week.
And then there’s the music. T Bone, Buddy, Tim, Frankie and all the brilliant songwriters who gave Rayna a voice. There was no music, and no Rayna, without you.
But finally and most importantly, the fans. You made Rayna. You supported her and loved her and gave her inspiration just as she was able to inspire you. You were the energy source, the power behind her heart and soul and life.
Rayna lived for you. And, from the depths of my heart, I thank you, for her and for me. It has been an honor to be a part of that creation. And as I know she would want it, the show must, and will go on. Long live Rayna Jaymes. #RIPRayna #NashvilleCMT
Nashville moved to CMT after ABC swung the ax on the series last May. Fans persisted to find the series a new home, and they succeeded.
There were rumblings before Nashville Season 5 even premiered that Connie was only signed on for half of the season and would depart after that.
However, Britton recently revealed on Ellen that she would be around for a lot more than just the initial half of the season.
Unless she’s showing up in flashbacks, that appears unlikely.
The series has been on a creative upswing since Marshall Herskovitz Ed Zwick replaced Dee Johnson.
The show has been less sensational throughout this season and has managed to make the characters likable again.
Heck, even Maddie Conrad has not been completely annoying.
What do you think about all of this, Nashville fanatics?
Sound off below!

Nashville Season 5: A Go on CMT!
Nashville fans have a reason to be singing a happy tune today.
As has been rumored ever since Nashville Season 4 went off the air on controversial fashion, the fun drama has found a new home and has been renewed for Season 5.
It will move from ABC to CMT this fall.
“CMT heard the fans. The wave of love and appreciation they have unleashed for Nashville has been overwhelming,” said Brian Philips, President of CMT, in a statement, adding:
“Nashville is a perfect addition to our evolving line-up of big music specials, documentaries, and original series. We see our fans and ourselves in this show and we will treasure it like no other network.
“Nashville belongs on CMT.”
Earlier this spring, ABC announced that it had canceled the Connie Britton-anchored series.
But then the supposed series finale last month ended up a major cliffhanger, with the fate of Hayden Panettiere’s Juliette in the balance due to a possible plane crash.
Fans were left outraged and confused.
But producers then made it clear that they only chose this route because they were confident another network would pick Nashville up for a fifth season.
So here we are.
You will also be able to watch Nashville online via Hulu.
“CMT and Hulu are the perfect combination for our iconic and beloved series Nashville and we want to thank the incredible fans for their unwavering support – #Nashies, you helped make this possible,” said Kevin Beggs, Chairman of the Lionsgate Television Group.
“We also want to extend our appreciation to the State of Tennessee, City of Nashville, and Ryman Hospitality for their unending support.
“They have been a key ingredient to the continued success of this show and we’re thrilled to extend our partnership for a fifth season.”
Added Patrick Moran, executive vice president, ABC Studios:
“We always had faith that we would find a way to bring Nashville back to its devoted fans, and we’re very proud to be in partnership with CMT and Hulu to extend the life of this series.”
