Barbara Walters To Interview John Edwards' Mistress Rielle Hunter!?

Posted by Josh loposer

 

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).

Are you sure he is refusing to take the DNA test? When he was interviewed by the Nightline guy .. (Bob Woodward I think it was?) last fall, Edwards stated emphatically that he would "love to see it happen," referring to the DNA test. He made it very clear he'd take one. Then it was reported the next day that Rielle Hunter, citing "privacy' concerns, was the one refusing to subject Frances to the test. I was just wondering if you'd seen somewhere that he has changed his mind about it.

Yeah saying that the baby didn't look like any of her kids was pretty stupid.  Maybe because you're not the mother??

When you are not very pretty, one should at least be nice, Rielle.  "Hunter" was a good choice in names.
