John Edwards Has Proposed to Rielle Hunter, National Enquirer Says
AOL News ^ | January 6, 2011 | Christopher Weber

John Edwards has proposed to his mistress Rielle Hunter, The National Enquirer reported Thursday.

A source told the tabloid that the disgraced former senator asked Hunter to marry him shortly after issuing a statement last year admitting that he was the father of her daughter, Frances Quinn.

Edwards, a one-time presidential candidate, "is buying a luxury $3.5 million beachfront home where they can live happily ever after with their love child," the Enquirer said.

The couple will wed this summer, according to the tabloid.

It was the Enquirer that first broke the story of the affair between Edwards and Hunter, who worked on his presidential campaign. The Huffington Post pointed out that while the Enquirer accurately reported the romance, the publication posted a nearly identical story last year about a planned Edwards-Hunter wedding -- which was later denied.

The way she got him will someday be the way she will lose him.

Not nice. Her husband’s a scumbag, and I didn’t like her politics, but she doesn’t deserve the ad hominem...

As his wife, she doesn’t have to testify against him.

It’s unexplainable when you think about it.

Sooo, we have a guy who cheated on his sick wife, with a woman who was willing to have sex with a married man who has a wife with cancer and now the two of them will get married

He is the democrat party poster boy and epitomizes everything the democrat party is about.

The fictional character of Alison Poole is based on Reille.

Interesting photo. I would have read them both as shallow fakes then, too.

As disgusting as Edwards is, I kind of hope he has a happy rest-of-his-life. If only so he can stay off of the headlines. That guy gives me the creeps.

His wife is barely cold in the grave and he is engaged to another woman. The only thing worse would have been to divorce her just before she died.

It's pretty pathetic when the National Enquirer scoops the rest of the media.

I don’t think the memory of Elizabeth Edwards deserves any special reverence. She was willing to ignore her husband’s infidelity if she got to be FLOTUS out of it. Nope, she not her memory gets any quarter here.

What about his kids with Elizabeth? With whom will they live? The youngest is only about 10 yrs. old, right?
