Please don't contribute to the urban legends......
I'm not going to read through the about 3000 'AF447' posts to check, but to the best of my memory it started off with Bonin's (the PF) wife who was on the flight.
That has led to all kind of suppositions, like the wife being on the flight deck, the PF being too 'fatigued' after the last day(s) in Rio, and now the captain's 'girlfriend' being added to the 'probable cause'.....
