Infamous ‘tot mom’ Casey Anthony is dating a dad of 2 — and she blew up his 20-year marriage to get him: ‘Living the life I want’

“Tot mom” Casey Anthony has been having an affair with a father of two since January — and the notorious murder defendant blew up her new man’s 20-year marriage to be with him, The Post can reveal.

Anthony, 38, has been dating 48-year-old Tyson Ray Rhodes since January.

Anthony and Rhodes met through the gym where they both worked out in south Florida.

They joined a group text with other gym members — but soon began talking one-on-one, according to sources.

Anthony — who was accused and then acquitted of murdering her 2-year-old daughter Caylee — has since uprooted her life in Florida and moved to Tennessee to be with her new beau.

Rhodes has two sons who are both young adults.

The couple was spotted on Wednesday outside her luxury apartment complex.

Rhodes was carrying a set of golf clubs.

After retreating inside, they left again, dressed in workout clothes.

They climbed into his black Dodge Ram pickup truck and headed for a workout at Crunch Gym.

“She doesn’t care if he’s married or not,” a pal of Anthony’s tells The Post.

“That’s his business. All she knows is that he makes her feel good, and she likes that. She was willing to follow him to Tennessee; she sees a future with him.”

“I asked her about it,” the friend continues.

“I was like, ‘Casey, a married guy?’ and she just laughed and said, ‘Oh shut up, I’m living the life I want.'”

Rhodes, an engineer for an aerospace company, has been married for 22 years.

He and his wife, Sandy, moved from South Florida to the Volunteer State at the beginning of the year.

But shortly after the move, Rhodes dropped a bombshell on the mother of his children when he told her he wanted a divorce.

He has yet to file the paperwork, but family sources tell The Post that she was “blindsided” by the news.

Days later, when his wife visited her family in Florida, Anthony swooped into Tennessee to be with her married lover.

On Jan. 26, Rhodes and Anthony were spotted at local restaurant and bar.

They were all smiles as they dined with two other couples.

“They were holding hands and kissing, and he even touched her butt,” says an onlooker.

“She got up to order a drink, and they noticed that people were staring. He said to her, ‘Bring that innocent ass over here.’ He didn’t care.”

Anthony, who worked remotely as a researcher for a private investigator, then decided to move to an apartment just down the street from Rhodes.

His truck has repeatedly been spotted parked next to her Mini Cooper.

A family member told The Post that Rhodes has said Anthony has an “intoxicating” aura , and that he’s very attracted to her.

Rhodes did not return The Post’s message for comment.

It has been more than 15 years since Anthony first entered the public consciousness after the disappearance of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, in 2008.

The little girl had been missing for more than a month before Casey’s mother, Cindy, called 911 to report the disappearance.

During a nationwide hunt for the missing toddler, Casey Anthony was arrested after police caught her in several lies, including claiming that Caylee had been kidnapped by a nanny, Zenaida Fernandez Gonzalez.

Police soon learned that Anthony had spent the previous month dancing on tables and partying with friends — and not looking for her missing daughter.

Six months later, Caylee’s remains were found in a wooded area near the Anthony family home.

Her cause of death could not be determined, but Casey was charged with first-degree murder.

Anthony’s 2011 murder trial was a media circus.

An estimated 40 million Americans watched at least part of the trial — and the verdict was watched by nearly 100 million people worldwide.

The prosecution alleged Anthony, then just 21, killed her little girl so that she could party with friends and have sex with her boyfriend.

The defense countered that Anthony was a loving mother and that Caylee had drowned in the family pool.

In the end, Anthony was infamously acquitted of murder charges.

She was convicted of four counts of lying to law enforcement officers and released from prison in July 2011.

She then immediately went into hiding.

But Anthony has always had an active love life: over the years she has been spotted out in South Florida with a number of romantic suitors.

She has often been spotted out with different men.

But her new beau is different, friends tell The Post.

“She sees potential in him,” says the friend.

“She wants to see where this goes.”
