Second man on the moon Buzz Aldrin, 81, has re-entered the dating atmosphere with a woman 30 years his junior — and his estranged wife has branded the younger woman a “predator,” Page Six can reveal.
Aldrin is dating former Borders event-marketing exec Michelle Sucillon, 51, we’ve learned. He filed for divorce from third wife Lois Driggs Cannon in June, after 23 years of marriage.
Aldrin met Sucillon at a signing for his book “Magnificent Desolation” at an LA Borders in 2009. They began dating more recently and were spotted “making out like teenagers,” to the shock of Acela train passengers Saturday.
Cannon told us, “He’s not [officially] divorced yet. It is kind of scandalous. We’ve had a great life, and I don’t blame Buzz, I blame the girl. She’s a predator, that’s my opinion.
“He filed for divorce in June. The book signing where they met was in 2009, and I was there. She was kind of aggressive. But he didn’t start seeing her then. He’s been seeing her for about a year. There are women out here in Los Angeles that go after men, they go after celebrities. Women should leave married men alone,” Cannon said.
“He’s 81 and having kind of a midlife crisis in old age … I still think Buzz is the most wonderful man in the world, and I still love him.”
She added, “I would hope we get back together … but I can’t tell him what to do. I think most wives warn their husbands of predatory women … I am a very moral person.”
Messages left on Aldrin’s phone and e-mails sent via his Web site were not returned last night. Sucillon didn’t get back to us.
Cannon added, “We worked for over 20 years making Buzz into a brand. He wants to take that business now and give it to his children.” (Aldrin is being sued by Cannon and daughter Lisa and he’s countersued). “I hope for a reconciliation,” Cannon said, “but Buzz has to give up this idea of being a young man again, wanting the young girls to feel young.”
