Michelle McGee's Father Speaks Out Over Alleged Jesse James Affair

The father of Michelle "Bombshell" McGee, the first woman to claim she had an affair with Sandra Bullock's husband, Jesse James, is speaking out in defense of his daughter.

On Friday, Denny McGee told a local Ohio Fox affiliate that he knew his daughter was having a relationship with the Monster Garage star, but that he was under the impression James and Bullock were estranged.

"She told me that she was going out with Jesse James... the motorcycle guy," McGee told WJH-TV. "I'm like, 'Oh, I thought he was married to Sandra Bullock.' She goes, 'Well, they were, but now they have a thing where they kind of live apart.' "

McGee said his 32-year-old daughter's relationship with James came to a screeching halt after she saw him at the Oscars with Bullock.

"She was under the impression they weren't seeing each other," explained McGee, who said his daughter is currently in seclusion at her home in San Diego. "She felt [betrayed]... she felt like she was going to have a relationship and this happened and she was mad."

"I don't think they're on speaking terms right now," he added.

McGee admitted that his daughter is "a little bit different with the tattoos and stuff," but said she's always been a great mom to her two kids, Elijah, 11, and Avery, 5. So would he have anything to say to James if given the chance?

"I wouldn't want to say anything to him," answered McGee. "I just wish he would've been honest with my daughter from the beginning so this wouldn't have happened."

Three more women, including Melissa Smith and Bridgitte Daguerre, have also claimed affairs with James since the infidelity scandal broke.

Bullock and James married in 2005 at a ranch north of Santa Barbara.
