Burkett’s wife Kimberly, 32, was so upset about Joe’s cheating that she took an overdose of Valium.

Kimberly Burkett’s attorney told the Enquirer, “Kimberly believes Lara stole her husband – and now they’re trying to steal her little girl.”

To add fuel to the fire, her two lovers, Burkett and Ware, got into a brutal battle over her in Baghdad!

Passions got so hot in the combat zone that one of her lovers, Joe Burkett, brawled in a Baghdad “safe house” with her other lover, CNN war reporter Michael Ware, a source said.
