Jason Campbell denies ditching bride at altar

Chaos in the Dominican Republic at this hour, as Oakland Raiders quarterback Jason Campbell is denying rumors that he left his longtime girlfriend at the altar on Saturday. What we know is that there was supposed to be a wedding between Campbell and fianc?e Jenny Montes at a swanky Dominican resort on Saturday, but it was called off ? the Washington Post says ?just hours? before the scheduled ceremony. Campbell is saying that?s not true, that it was postponed way before that. But then there?s the 162 guests who arrived expecting a wedding, only to be told it was off.

In phone conversations with the Washington Post Tuesday, Campbell declined to go into details but said the two came to a decision to ?put things off? after discussing it for a couple of weeks. ?I love her enough not to leave her at the altar,? he said. ?I love her enough to talk to her before it gets that far.?

Campbell, who said he was still in the Dominican Republic with Montes and her family, denied Internet rumors that he had called off the wedding at the last minute.

But the Post also wrote:

The 162 guests ? who flew to an exclusive Dominican Republican resort for the celebration ? were informed at a welcoming party that the marriage was off, but did not receive any explanation why.

Campbell was the Raiders? starting QB last season until breaking his collarbone in October, and was eventually replaced by Carson Palmer. Campbell?s contract with the Raiders expires next month, when he will become an unrestricted free agent.

The couple had a wedding web site, which has been taken down. Photos of them together here.

Robert Littal of Black Sports Online:

Do I believe Campbell?

No.

Jenny has his initials tattooed on his back, so I doubt she was happy about pulling the plug on the wedding, but Campbell has made his statement and I respect him at least acknowledging the rumors.

How many former waitresses do you know who get engaged to a NFL Player and plan a lavish wedding in the Dominican Republic make a mutual decision to call off the wedding last minute?
