Jerry Falwell Jr., the son of late evangelical leader Jerry Falwell, revealed Sunday that his wife had an affair with a family friend that sent him into a depression he described as “like living on a roller coaster.”

The admission follows Falwell Jr. being placed on indefinite leave from his post as president of Liberty University two weeks ago, after a controversy surrounding a racy Instagram photo he had posted.

In a statement sent to the Washington Examiner, Falwell admitted that his wife, Becki Falwell, struck up an “inappropriate personal relationship” with a Florida pool boy who worked at one of the family’s properties.

People might have forgiven him for having an affair, but they won’t for his wife cheating on him.

‘Pool-boy’?

This would make a great movie script.

Awful.

We haven’t understood the effect of contraception on women’s moral decisions.

Pretty sure if you search "pool boy" and "wife" you're going to find plenty of movies, pornographic movies to be sure, but movies.

Providing for their children is a HUGE part of the morality of women- and of humanity’s survival.

What “the pill” changes in that equation is not understood.

Mr. Falwell, Keep the indiscretions out of the public arena. You know the difference between right and wrong . . . make decisions based on that yourself rather than resorting to the blame game. For all we know your wife was suffering from depression, too. This is a sad time for the ministry; and hopefully those now in charge will focus on the Saving Grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. God could give Jesus the nod at any time to Rapture the Church and there are so many lost souls in this world.

Becki Falwell, struck up an “inappropriate personal relationship” with a Florida pool boy who worked at one of the family’s properties.

This reads like a soap opera plot line. Really Becki, a pool boy, probably named Ramon. You created major chaos in your family for a dalliance with the pool boy.

I don’t think I’ve ever met a “pool boy.” Is that really a thing?

Why would he announce that to the world? Trying to deflect criticism of himself by throwing it onto his wife? (In classic FR manner, I read only the excerpt)
