Basketball star Tony Parker, the husband of Eva Longoria is suing X17online.com for $20 million over claims he had an affair with french model Alexandra Paressant.

X17online.com ran a series of "false" stories, according to legal papers filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.

The website ran an interview with Paressant in which she claimed she and Parker had a two-month affair.

The story said Paressant told the website she attended Parker's wedding with a group of friends including French football player Thierry Henry.

The legal case said: "X17 had to know that the story was false, or, at the very least, it had to have entertained serious doubts about the credibility of the supposed source."

It continued: "No one from X17 attempted to contact Henry, who... would have told them in no uncertain terms that this woman was not at the wedding."

An after-hours call to X17's Beverly Hills office was not immediately returned.

Belgian-born Parker, 25, married Longoria, 32, in Paris in July.

The high-profile couple defended their marriage in People magazine last week.

"I love my wife. She's the best thing in my life, and I have never been happier," Mr Parker said.

"Tony has been nothing short of the perfect husband," Longoria added.
