Monica Lewinsky opens up old wounds in "The Clinton Affair"
CBS "News" ^ | November 14, 2018

A new documentary series offers an emotional look behind the mask of someone who has stood stoic in the public eye for decades. In the A&E series, "The Clinton Affair," Monica Lewinsky is more forthright than she's been in years about her relationship with former President Bill Clinton.

In the A&E series, which premieres this Sunday, Lewinsky talks about the highs of her time at the White House. At one point she describes how she felt being called in by Clinton, "I don't think my heart had ever beat as fast."

And the lowest of lows, when she was confronted by FBI agents about the affair.

"I remember looking out the window and thinking the only way to fix this was to kill myself, was to jump out the window….I just I was mortified and afraid of what this was going to do to my family," she said.

Lewinsky, for her part, is focused on healing from the memories of that traumatic time.

"However wrong it was, however misguided, for who I was in that very moment at 22 years old. That was how it felt," Lewinsky said.

“Seems like these wound openings always seem to coincide with a Hillary presidential run.”

Yep, wonder how much Hillary is paying her to get this “old” news out there, so she can just focus on running.
