Jillian Barberie claimed that her “Skating With Celebrities” co-star Lloyd Eisler allegedly jumped out of a second-story window before Kristy Swanson’s boyfriend could catch them having an affair in the mid-2000s.

“I’m just gonna tell it like it is,” Barberie said on Tuesday’s episode of “Hollywood & Divine.” “They were having an affair. And Kristy was with her boyfriend at the time, but Lloyd was married and his wife was 8 months pregnant back in Canada.”

She recalled a story that occurred during the filming of the show, revealing that Swanson and Eisler were nearly caught in the act by the actress’ star’s then-boyfriend.

“The boyfriend pretended he was in San Diego, but he was actually in Hollywood. [He] called Kristy, she was with Lloyd in bed,” Barberie recalled, noting that Swanson’s boyfriend was actually downstairs when he called. “[The building] knew he had stayed with her, so they gave him a card to get in.”

Barberie said the boyfriend put the card in the door to unlock it, but Swanson had flipped the extra lock.

“[Kristy’s boyfriend] hears all the rustling. They’re on the second floor. Lloyd jumps out of the window and lands on a car,” Barberie added.

Although the news of the affair was highly publicized in 2006, the drastic measure Eisler took to avoid being caught by Swanson’s then-boyfriend is a new twist to the story.

Representatives for Swanson and Eisler did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

Eisler, 63, met Swanson, 56, while filming the first and only season of Fox’s “Skating With Celebrities,” which aired in early 2006. Eisler was the skating pro and the actress was his celebrity partner. They ultimately came in first place.

Prior to the show, Eisler won bronze medals in the 1992 and 1994 Winter Olympics with his pairs partner, Isabelle Brasseur. The pair also won the 1993 World Figure Skating Championship.

Swanson, for her part, is known for her role as the original Buffy Summers in the 1992 film “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” She also starred in 1999’s “Big Daddy” and “Dude, Where’s My Car?” in 2000.

The affair between the pair arose during the filming of “Skating With Celebrities” while Eisler’s then-wife, Marcia O’Brien, was anticipating the birth of their second child together. When O’Brien visited the set of the show, she reportedly “felt a vibe that things weren’t normal” between the two costars.

“Everyone knew there was something going on. It was obvious they were together,” a show source previously told People.

O’Brien confronted Eisler about his infidelity, and he moved out of their home in November 2005. Eisler wasted no time, openly dating Swanson shortly after leaving his wife and having a child with Swanson just one year later.

Eisler and Swanson tied the knot in 2009 and are still together today.
