According to Perez Hilton, cancer survivor Elizabeth Edwards has kicked hubby John Edwards to the curb. She decided to pull the plug on her 30 year marriage for his cheating
ways.
Over the summer, John Edwards scandalous affair with Rielle Hunter rocked the political world. Edwards being a Gemini, probably thought he was way too clever, and could hide his mistress. NOT!!! His affair was exposed by popular gossip rag, National Enquirer. He’s thought to have had a love child with Rielle Hunter, the crazy New Age lady as well. (karma’s a bitch Rielle!)
Their friend, Hargrave McElroy, says, “She couldn’t say, ‘Well, maybe we’ll work through this for years, or maybe we should separate for two years.’” The cancer “forced her to choose whether to move forward.”
John, however, claims he ended the affair with money-seeking Rielle Hunter a year ago, though that doesn’t explain why he was caught recently sneaking out to go visit her. And, as The National Enquirer is reporting, that’s not the only time Edwards has visited the ho this year!
McElroy adds, “There was anguish — excruciating anguish — for her in dealing with this. She was angry and furious and everything, but at one point she had to make a choice: Do I kick him out, or do we have a 30-year marriage that can be rebuilt.”
Edwards career is over, all thanks to his infidelity and his CONSTANT lying to the public about it. We wish Elizabeth Edwards the best. Be strong.
I think he cheated - he told her and she forgave him. Then he went back and cheated AGAIN - and then he got caught by the National Enquirer. That’s what is probably unforgivable here. That baby is probably his baby - and the affair was longer than he originally admitted - and Elizabeth feels life is too short - she needs to be happy.
I think this site posted a prediction a while ago (if my memory serves) that he would lose his career in politics, lose his marriage - and then be sort of a broken man should something (god forbid) happen to her. That made sense to me. It’s bad enough to risk the presidency, to risk a marriage - but to cheat on a woman dealing with cancer is the lowest of the low. He should be miserable. She is a lovely woman - and has done great work on many important issues for this country.
Can you imagine if her were the democratic candidate now and this story came out this weekend? John McCain would be president.
