Women who date celebrity men while they're under suspicion

I was reading this story about the woman who dated Michael Le Vell through his recent ordeal and it reminded me of Abi Titmuss and her constant presence throughout the John Leslie saga. She later went on to a moderately successful career in modelling and stage acting I believe, with many speculating at the time that this was all she was ever in it for. This woman involved with MLV seems to have wasted little time in selling her story now that he's ended their relationship.
Is there a type of woman who latches onto celebrity men when they're under a dark cloud of suspicion, hoping to ride it out and grab some glory if/when the man is cleared? Or are they just women who genuinely fell for these men, and love has shitty timing? I know I've given only two examples but I'm sure there are more that escape me right now so any suggestions would be helpful. Gender reversed situations would also be welcome but I can't say I've ever noticed one like that myself.
(I would hope the mods see fit to leave this where it is as it's more of a subject about human psychology than the showbiz tittle tattle side of things, and the whole thing would be sidelined in the showbiz forum by people sharing their third hand stories about how Le Vell and Leslie are definitely closet gays anyway)

This woman seems more like a bitter and angry woman lashing out in the best way she thinks she can, ny selling her story to the press, rather than someone with an ulterior motive or garnering fame herself.
Also, the media will have had a lot to do with Abi Titmus fame, they will have decided she was a darling and brave and ooo look she scrubs up well too.
Michael Le Vell's girlfriend is just cashing in while she can, it's a very dull, embarrassing (for her) kiss n tell, I hope she made enough money out of it.
I think Taglet's post above raises an interesting point.
The leaked video of the threesome didn't do her any harm either.
Michael l Vells girlfriend on the other hand chose to start dating him whilst he was accused of a crime and I found this quite odd because she doesn't have the knowledge or the history with him to "know " he was not guilty . I do think from a defence point of view they would think he would look better in the media with the support of a woman particularly as he and his wife had separated and she wasn't there to support him.
I think many now carry their own handcuffs to save time.
Think Dale Winton is pretty safe but not sure he's beating the gold digging females off with a stick
I suspect this is close to the truth, although I wouldn't be at all surprised if she was fully aware of the deal and played along with it - perhaps her pitiful 'woman scorned' kiss and tell was part of the deal too?
Or perhaps I'm just horribly cynical.
I cant work it out myelf, but for those saying that the women face all sorts of tittle tattle and abuse and people saying things about them (the implication being that they wouldnt put themselves through that unless they had a genuine relationship), some people thrive on that, they dont care if its negative attention they just want drama and conflict around them
I do feel very embarrassed for people like her though, selling a story like that, this is private stuff surely?
Doesn't she have a stage acting career or am I confusing her with someone else?
