Joseph Cerniglia, the suicide chef had a fondness for the taste of pastry, actually it was his pastry chef he had a fondness for.
The 39-year-old chef had been in a romance with Jessica Marotta (above photo), his pastry chef, before he took the fatal leap.
"They loved each other very much," said the pastry chef's mom, Ana Marotta.
"My daughter is devastated," Ana said about her daughter Jessica, she went from waitress to co-owner of Cerniglia's Campania restaurant.
Many people wanted to blame Gordon Ramsay for the suicide of Joe Cerniglia but it appears those people are dead wrong.
It seems that Joe Cerniglia was having an extra marital affair with Jessica Marotta, and it was that affair that eventually destroyed his marriage with his wife.
Because of all this, perhaps the name of Jessica Marotta seems to be an important factor in Joe Cerniglia's suicide and not Gordon Ramsay's.
It was Gordan Ramsay in a 2007 that warned Joseph that his restaurant was "about to swim down the Hudson."
As it turned out it was Joesph who was floating down the Hudson instead.
