Dina Matos is the ex-wife of former New Jersey Governor James McGreevey. James McGreevey was forced to resign after admitting to an extramarital affair with a male employee. The affair reportedly took place in 2004. Theodore Pedersen, a former aide and driver of McGreevey's, claimed that he, Matos and McGreevey participated in threesomes before McGreevey took office.
Dina Matos and James McGreevey were separated in 2004. Their divorce was finalized in 2008. The couple agreed to joint custody of their daughter and McGreevey will pay $1,075 a month in child support. Matos was asking for an additional $2,500 a month in alimony, but a judge ruled against it.
