John Edwards' mistress has remained silent throughout months of wild speculation (supposedly because John was paying her to) and even a little trash talking from Elizabeth Edwards. Finally, word has it that Rielle is ready to tell Barbara Walters all about it...
"WORLDWIDE ENQUIRER EXCLUSIVE: John Edwards’ mistress Rielle Hunter
has agreed to sit down for a bombshell interview with ABC News Barbara
Walters, the ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.
“Rielle will break her silence for the first time with Barbara
Walters. The interview will air on ABC in June,” a source told The
ENQUIRER.
“Rielle is so angry with Elizabeth Edwards for trashing her
repeatedly while promoting her book that she’s decided to break from
John. She’s going to defend herself and tell her side of the story!”
As crazy and damaging as the affair was to the Edwards family, the aftermath has been even weirder. First, the lying by John Edwards, then the lovechild. Then, we get Elizabeth Edwards saying that she is standing by him and making Rielle out to be the monster.
Still, if Elizabeth wanted this to go away, would she have slammed Rielle in her book and called her "pathetic?" This interview (if it's not a complete hoax) has the potential to be really embarrassing for John Edwards.
If she reveals that he's been supporting her financially, he's going to get a major black eye. Rielle is reportedly demanding that John take a DNA test to confirm that he's the father. He is refusing ... I wonder why? If it turns out that he's the father, Hunter wants 1/4 of his estate (which comes out to $10M).
