Bill Nye Went On A Bizarre Rant About His Ex-Fiancee And Robert Picardo’s Divorce

So this is kinda weird. TMZ caught up with Bill Nye and they were like, “Hey Bill Nye, are you afraid of spiders?” and Bill Nye was like, “No, I’m not afraid of spiders however I do have some things to say about how Robert Picardo’s ex-wife who is an addict and my ex-fiancee who is a felon who are in cahoots with one another,” and TMZ was like, “GO ON. . .”

Apparently this all has to do with Robert Picardo’s estranged wife, Linda Pawlik, with whom he is in the middle of an ugly, acrimonious divorce. Back in August TMZ obtained court documents that showed Picardo was asking a judge to stop Pawlik from spreading rumors about him and Nye, claiming that they were more than friends — which obviously did not sit well with the science guy.

Still, this is probably the least hard TMZ has ever had to scrape for a story. Hopefully after this Bill Nye learned his lesson of why you never, ever feed the trolls.
