One-time Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards promised his mistress they would reunited once his cancer-stricken wife died, the National Enquirer reported.
The Enquirer - which first broke word of the Edwards scandal - also reported that mistress Rielle Hunter refuses to make Edwards take a paternity test because she fears it will jeopardize their future.
Edwards, who admitted the affair earlier this month after repeated denials, remains in contact with Hunter even now, according to the Enquirer.
The North Carolina politician called her after his Aug. 8 confession on national television, reportedly telling her: "We'll be together when Elizabeth is gone."

Sick Sick Sick.
Unless they have this on tape, they’re just hurting Mr. Edwards’ family for no good reason.
Just think, he was almost V.P.
Have they released the tape of him hiding in the bathroom yet? LOL
Well, we all have to move on.....
Good for him.
Just good for him.
Why haven’t we heard from Elizabeth?
We need to shove a stake deep enough into his political heart to make sure that he is never able to resurrect his political career. I'm sorry for his wife and kids but this man craves power and were it not for the tabloids he would continue his over the top behavior which would include attempts at the highest office in the land.
Maybe she is trying to make it a better life for her children after she dies or maybe she knew about it and decided it wasn’t worth the fight since she has other things to worry about that are more important than her SOB husband.
IIRC, I think they do have it from an intercepted cell call. That is what the guy (don't remember his name) from the NE alluded to on Fox awhile back. When pressed how he would have that call, he refused to answer.
I think it was Edwards' behavior which allowed this scandal to be visited upon his family. That said, if I was Elizabeth, I think I'd turn him into a castrati. It's not like she'd get anything but probation given the circumstances.
Sarcasm is my strong suit.
JE is a horndog. Just like his mentor, Slick.
“When pressed how he would have that call, he refused to answer.”
The same way they had Newt on his cell phone. And I don’t mean some “ordinary citizens” getting it “accidentally” on a scanner.
Hah Then Raelle in the tradition of her creepy Dad will fry the Silk Pony.
Would that be the same way that Prince Charles' (when he was married to Princess Diana) was outed telling Camilla that he wished he were her insertable feminine hygeine product?
Well I thought he was light in the loafers.
Apparently not.
Not after crapping them.
After hearing the “We’ll be together...” line. Elizabeth Edwards should divorce his a**. Not for herself but to ensure her children’s stake in his fortune. Otherwise, he will cut those kids out at the request of his paramour.

my guess is that the loony mistress has been the “anonymous source” all along.
It has been documented how she spoke poorly of Elizabeth.
This is more bile she is throwing at the suffering wife.
ditto. She’s trash.
I have no idea where her cancer stage is but I lost my Mom to cancer a few years back and there are times where it is all you can do to stay coherent. She’s probably not going to do anything. His example of family and leadership is disgusting.
Feel sorry for the children. They are going to end up with this new-agey skank as a mother-in-law.
Ugh...that's just gross.
Wonder how much Elizabeth's insurance policy is?
Good thing they don't live in Oregon.
I agree with you - Elizabeth needs to get out NOW for the children’s sake. Hunter will hurt them even more than she is hurting them now... and if she DOESN’T get what she wants, she’ll be even more dangerous.
Elizabeth, please, save your children from this evil creature!! Give custody to your parents, or to some God parents, or anywhere that John can “visit” them supervised from the safety of a loving, stable environment - one that is closed to this golddigging menace.
Yes, and remember, Elizabeth repeatedly said that they were going to go ahead with his campaign because she couldn’t deny the country of John, that America needed him...this was after she KNEW he was a lying, unfaithful scumbag!
For her kids, and for herself. That man is a sack of dung. If he hadn't got caught, he would have been nailing her again before his wife was cold in her grave.

*snicker*
no. But they did get the footage of him flushing himself down the toilet.
maybe that lovely florida couple was accidentally intercepted another cell phone call, but instead of giving it to the DNC, they sold it to the NE
Oh, that’s just disgusting. Waaaay too much information!
I guess her death is just a formality.
You forget he is a shyster lawyer. He’d sue their ass if they couldn’t back it up.
Just as an aside, can anyone explain why the BreckGirl would risk it all on a dog like Rielle?
Camilla Bowles Parker laughs at her.
What a skankaroo.
If this not throwing someone under the BUS not is.
Remember, Elizabeth is a lawyer, too. She should take him for every penny he is worth. Since his political career is finished (thank God!), there is no way she should let him go on planning his life after her death without making him pay and ensuring that the future of her young children is secure. Lord willing, she will survive the breast cancer again and will be around to see him suffer.
Anyways, I doubt this is Silky Ponys first bite of the apple.
A story broke yesterday in the DC area - a personal injury attorney, Stephen T. Conrad, skimmed at least $3.5 million from his clients. He forged the signatures of at least 50 clients on settlement claims. Apparently it came to light when one client happened to call the bar association wondering why he had not received the money awarded him two years earlier.
We could be seeing this played out on Snapped or Forensic Files any day now.
She should be documenting everything. Throw the bum out of the house, change the locks, and seek to have her children placed with her daughter, when she dies.
I hope she is on a macrobiotic diet, and taking excellent care of herself. She needs to live a good long time. And she needs to make sure that this man, who is waiting for her to die, will not be making life medical decisions for her!
Who knew? Mike Schiavo and John Edwards, two peas in a pod!
hmmm.... could be.
I believe it is illegal to intercept phone calls.
More likely that the girlfriend is the source for all their information, and their photos.
STEP mother
She has an adult daughter. The little ones don’t know what this is all about, but I really feels sorry for their older girl. She has been through so much already. She has had to suffer through her brother’s death, her father’s political ambitions, her mother’s illness, and now this mess by her self centered dad. The last thing she needs is to have that crazy Rielle in her life!
Dewey, Cheatem and Howe, and Edwards.
It is sad.
Yep, I never liked Elizabeth, but I don’t wish this kind of treatment for her. No woman is okay with adultery, no matter what they say. Sounds like there is more dirt to come. Edwards might have been the VP pick if not for this. Yikes.
