Teri Hatcher Gets Played by Ryan Seacrest

He set her up.

Teri is as baffled as everyone else by the three-week tabloid magazine cover "affair" in which nothing happened. She told Oprah that a friend had been trying to set her up with Ryan for months, so she finally relented.

She went out with him on two group dates, and for their third date, Ryan called her suddenly and asked her to meet him at a little shack of a seafood restaurant way far away from Los Angeles.

She went, they sat on the beach, and he leaned over and kissed her. She says she didn't know it at the moment, but paparazzi happened to be there too...

Teri said that she and Ryan were both aware that their picture had been taken and then an hour after the date, he called her and said, "I don't think I can do this with you."

And the D-wife hasn't heard from him or seen him since. Talk about being used!
