John Edwards proposes to mistress Rielle Hunter, buys $4.5M beach house
NY Daily News ^ | Feb 10th, 2010

What a guy - John Edwards is reportedly making his mistress his missus.

The disgraced 2008 presidential contender has proposed to his baby-mama, Rielle Hunter, and is even setting her up in a swank $3.5 million beachfront mansion, The National Enquirer reported Wednesday.

The supermarket tabloid - which so far has been usually on target on the Edwards affair - says the cheatin' pol popped the question last month, shortly before he issued a statement claiming paternity of the couple's two-year-old daughter, Frances Quinn.

Six days later, Edward's cancer-stricken wife, Elizabeth, confirmed she had separated from her dog of a husband - paving the way for the ex-senator to make Rielle, 45, his wife.

"John knew Rielle had been waiting for a proposal for two long years," the Enquirer said it was told by a source. "Since they've gotten involved, she's followed every order he gave her, going on a cross-country cover-up, hiding away during her pregnancy and after giving birth for the sake of his presidential aspirations."

"Rielle never uttered a peep about their affair publicly, and remained loyal to John," added the source. "John felt she deserved to know that he wanted to raise their child together, and wanted Rielle in his life as his partner."

“What about the report that he beat up Elizabeth which is what triggered their split?”

I didn’t hear that rumor. I would guess that it was the other way around though.:0)

I guess Elizabeth was “too old” for him; isn’t she about five years older than he?

Hope she divorces him quickly and gets the other half of his blood money that Liz won’t get.

I hope I get the money

Everybody should keep in mind the fact that the Democrat Party saw fit to choose this total POS as their Vice-President. Conservative commentators should remind America of this fact every single day.

The poor child. At least she now has a daddy that has finally claimed her.

Does Edwards have any other kids?

As much of a creep I think he is, it would not surprise me one iota if he’d not already foreseen this the day before he got married and shysterly protected his assets. He didn’t get to be a multimillionaire shyster lawyer by lying alone...there was some nefarious skill involved also.

I'm thinking of another adulterous man who also dumped his ailing wife for someone far more attractive in oh so many ways $$$$$$.

That would be John McCain.

looking for his *Barbie*

The problem I am having here is that I don’t see what is so “that” about her. She is far from Barbie.

I don’t think it’s so much about her looks, but her adoration of John Edwards he lapped that up like a
St. Bernard Puppy.........

Same thing with Sandford’s Argentina Soulmate, I don’t think she was anything to look at, but she adored Sandford

As a married woman I love and respect my husband, but adore?
absoloutley not...I adore one and one only GOD above Creator of heaven and earth....
