Rielle Hunter and John Edwards Split Up
ABC News ^ | 06/26/2012 | By RUSSELL GOLDMAN

Posted on 06/26/2012 8:21:04 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Rielle Hunter and John Edwards ended their controversial relationship last week, just days after her new book debuted and she went public about how they met, hid their affair and had a baby girl together.

"We are a family, but as of the end of last week John Edwards and I are no longer a couple. Not at all," Hunter told ABC's George Stephanopoulos on "Good Morning America."

When asked if she still loved Edwards, Hunter replied, "I do."

Stephanopoulos asked if Edwards still loved her and she said, "You have to ask him. I think he does. I mean I feel that he does."

Nevertheless, the couple split, she said, worn down by the scrutiny and pressure brought on by their high profile affair that began while Edwards was running for the 2008 presidential nomination.

"For me, for my part in it, it's because I'm no longer interested in hiding, hiding our relationship, not living out," she said. "I don't know if you've noticed, but we've had a lot of media scrutiny. It's complicated and it's hard. It wears you down after a while."

Hunter, 48, wouldn't say whether one of them made the break.

"That's private. We decided together to end it. It's hard. It's painful," she said.

The interview began with Stephanopoulos asking Hunter, who has had a baby girl named Frances Quinn with Edwards, whether knowing what she knows now, would she do it all again.

"Would I do that again?" repeats Hunter almost incredulously. "No way. Absolutely not."

She rejected a suggestion that the relationship may have been a mistake.

I think it dawned on her that she had won the ‘BIMBO of the Year’ award. Monica was even laughing at her...

She should have split the book royalties with Mr. Pretty Hair.

Surprising. I thought she had an outside shot at becoming FLOTUS. Maybe the consultants decided she was too toxic.

In 2013 the MSM will start doing re-hab on John-Boy and Spitzer, they will be major players in the 2016 race.

My womanly intuition tells me he objected to things she wrote in the book, ie. she shouldn’t have trashed Elizabeth, and then he refused to marry her.

I doubt this is permanent. They will get back together. She wants him. ;)

No worries Rielle, I’m sure there are other lowlife husbands out there with a dying wife in the hosital you can have another baby with.

Edwards is a poster child for men for what not to do in the world.

Every generation has them and Fate set him up nicely to be an example to us all.

If what goes around, comes around, Rielle had better look for some really high quality karma catcher's padding and headgear, once she's finished basking in all this fame and fortune, of course.

I bet the silky pony has a few more pitches coming at him, too. Better to screw up like he has in private, not while running for POTUS.

She can live well on the child support for the next twenty some years. She knew exactly what she was doing when she got pregnant.
