Former Tiffany’s exec sues trash-talking soccer mom

A New Jersey soccer mom is defending her husband’s honor by filing a lawsuit against an unknown woman who badmouthed her youth-coach hubby for “fixing tryouts” and “engaging in misconduct relating to sportsmanship during the season,” a new lawsuit says.

Former Tiffany’s Co. executive-turned-stay-at-home mom Siobhan Winograd charged the unnamed busybody – named in the suit only as “Ridgewood Soccer Mom” – with “tarnishing” her picture-perfect family’s reputation “within their small community” and stirring “up public contempt for [her] and her family.”

Attorney Michael Winograd and his wife started volunteering for their 10-year-old son’s traveling soccer team in 2011 and have been subject to a pattern of anonymous harassment ever since, the Manhattan Supreme Court suit says.

“Defendants filed anonymous written complaints with the village travel soccer organization claiming that [Winograd’s] husband had fixed the tryouts for the team,” the suit states.

The anonymous accuser continued to send complaints to the Ridgewood soccer organization and others in the local soccer community – and then in January 2014 an ugly email from “ridgewoodsoccermom@gmail.com” was sent to her hubby’s law firm alleging he was “bullying” the soccer organization, according to the suit.

“The situation stems from the ego of [Michael Winograd] and his belief that his needs trump the needs of the club,” the email read, according to the suit.

The email also referenced a formal grievance Siobhan Winograd filed against the soccer organization in October 2013 accusing the organization of financial irregularities and improper board elections, the suit states.

The suit names “Ridgewood Soccer Mom” and the person behind it, “John Doe,” as defendants and seeks unspecified damages.

There was no response to an email seeking comment.
