John Edwards Caught With Mistress And Bastard Child????
Filed under: Baby Blabber > Politik > Barack Obama
Looks like John Edwards' name might be crossed off Barack Obama's VP short list!
The National Enquirer reports that they caught the former Presidential candidate sneaking into a Beverly Hills hotel 2 a.m. Tuesday morning, July 22nd, so he could see his Santa Barbara based mistress and his love child!
Edwards was reportedly in LaLaLand to meet with the city's mayor about homelessness.
Did Johnny boy use the mayor to get out to the West Coast?
Juicy!
The Enquirer cites a months-long investigation to advance its claim that Edwards was visiting the woman he was effing while his wife was battling cancer and the bastard child he fathered.

Potentially explosive stuff!

ok people, first yes his wife has gained weight but that's what chemo and cancer drugs do to people…keep the comments for the scumbag not the wife and secondly poster i think 199 his wife is very much alive…
Perez, wash your mouth out! It's a "child," not a "bastard child"! How come your so selective with who you call that name? You'll have to start calling all the Jolie-Pitts bastards too.
If Elizabeth Edwards were still alive, she'd slap John silly.
The affair may have started while she was alive, but what's the harm now that she's gone?
She'll never even know she wasn't loved. Maybe its better that way.
Elizabeth Edwards, may she rest in peace, was a true hero to many cancer survivors. Her surviving husband's dalliances diminish only his political future, and not her memory. Still, John Edwards is the Cad of the Decade.
To sm, #65 poster, you are spot on. And to the others that clued into the fact that ALL politicians need to feed their ego and a lot of them use sex for that. Edwards and Clinton should team up and they can be called "The Double, Double Dippers", if you know what I mean.
Thank goodness Elizabeth wasn't alive to see this. Maybe John and Rielle will find happiness together. Isn't that what Elizabeth would have wanted?
If this is true, it will be the biggest story Perez has ever broken!
Maybe it's b/c I'm from NC and absolutely LOVE John Edwards, but I dont think this is true. It can't be.. he seems like such a genuine man. If it is true, then shame on him! Poor Elizabeth..I can't believe she has to go through all of this.. and his children too!
HA! You're relying on National Enquirer now?! Was this story before or after the one about the woman giving birth to aliens??
i can emember reading online about edwards doing the nasty and making a kid without his wife in 2004, then other people online were like: oh, no, bs. time tells.
I always had a suspicious feeling about him too…Too bad, his poor wife, sick and I am sure always faithful and there he goes and runs around, he could of done better than that also I think…I feel bad for his wife who stood by him while also sick during his stupid campaign.
this was first reported back in october of last year! not sure how his team kept it hidden so well over the past months. in the first report months ago, it was also claimed that someone (another married man) on his campaign team actually took the fall for him when this woman became pregnant…
Doesn't surprise me, that marriage was a sham anyway. You could always tell when Edwards was running for some office somewhere. The 1st thing he would do is trot out his sick wife as a way of gaining public sympathy. No offence but that ladies life has been hanging by a thread for the last 30 years. Then once he loses, because he always does, he tucks her away in some kennel then continues with his adulterous affairs. He's doing this for years. Everyone including the media knows it.
Perez, how can you publish such Bullshit? The Nat'l Enquirer? WTF man? This is garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage, garbage! The terrible thing is there are idiots out there who will believe you! You're just propagating fabricated trash. You should be ashamed.
I always thought Edwards was gay!? Who knew?
N
he's definetly frank sinatra's love child?
The National Enquirer better get their lawyers ready. The father of this child came forward last time and it wasn't John Edwards. Geesh. Why pick on him? He isn't even running anymore.
please stop using 'Bastard child' or such like it is archaic and bigoted.
Since when is the Inquirer a source of news anywhere? You're only spreading BS probably started by the right wing hate machine. Wake up Mario!!!!!
Bastard? You are so fucked up in the head. You would hate for people to discriminate against gays and minorities and yet you love throwing around words like Bastard and Homewrecker. You're our moral barometer now? Whatever.
Maybe he should have asked McCain how to cheat on your wife, dump her when she is injured and marry an heiress. It's ok for McCain, he is a republican and therefore a hypocrite.
It's so true. NY post reported that while she was living in NYC he was rendevousing with her at hotels while Elizabeth was battling cancer a third or fourth time. He needs to come clean with this and no he won't be VP because of this dirty little scandal which the mainstream press is aware of but isn't reporting. The stupid little coverup with his former staffer Andrew Young was so thinly veiled and moronic.
Re: zk – Really? Being from NC he didn't do one single thing for the poor except lip service while he was Senator.
Don't worry - I'm sure you are just one of the many who fall victim to politicians glorious lip service with out really researching the facts.
Re: no – Not likely. Political figures have the absolute hardest time building a case for libel due to their willingness to make them selfs public figures.
If Bush or Clinton didn't sue for Libel for all the stuff written about him then absolutely no other politician would have a chance.
Re: WHORE – mature.
Re: tulip – 2 wrongs don't make a right cupcake. Not that I blame Edwards, his wife looks like refrigerator with a bloated head on top. I bet you're a beast too, most democratic women are. Face it sweetheart, they are all either feminists with 12 inch long clits or dykes whose idea of beauty is a crew cut and styling the hair coming out of their nose. A real pack of pooches.
fucking scum bag, cocksucker, bastard, pig, cheating, phony, hypocrite, bullshit politician……what, oh…he's a democrate…..nevermind
So let me get this right - his wife is battling cancer AND the bastard child! Wow…she must be tough.
Learn how to use commas dickwad.
What a piece of shit you are Perez. Salcious piece of garbage.
I hope this story isn't true, for Elizabeth Edwards' sake.
However, coming from the National Enquirer, of all places, you can bet this story is FULL OF INACCURACIES & EXAGGERATIONS.
If the Enquirer was staking out the hotel, how come no photos?
Hey, it's okay for him to have a mistress and father a baby all while his wife is dying of cancer.
After all, he is a Democrat and looks good. Just like the Kennedys.
Now if this was McCain, you'd be hearing about it endlessly in the media.
For those who doubt the veracity of the Enquirer's story, just look at the recent history of this publication — particularly on the OJ and Lewinsky stories. They scooped the mainstream media and were right the vast majority of the time. There is simply no proof that they print items they can't back up — and they have a very sharp legal team that fact checks these stories with a fine-tooth comb. So, get over it, Edwards is a dog — pure and simple and it's finally caught up with him. It was a well-known story in DC and LA that he was and is a skirt-chaser — "bigtime," as a smarter VP candidate once said.
What's the harm? Before Elizabeth Edwards died it was a little scandalous but now that she's gone? Why can't John have a happy family with Rielle Hunter? Doesn't that baby deserve a father? Isn't that what Obama spoke about last week?
John deserves to be happy. He stood by his wife faithfully before she died and he deserves to move on live with his life. Elizabeth would've wanted him to find someone else.
What an ass!! Doesn't his wife have cancer? He should be taking care of her and not his hoe!!!!!!!!!!!
uh….FAKE
the N. E.? really? that so fake
Is this some scam to make us think he's not gay?
I'd hope he wouldn't cheat on his wife. She's got terminal cancer and will probably die soon.
Suck it KELLY! Republicans cheat on their wives and start wars killing thousands of innocent people all in the name of oil!
You're quoting from The National Fucking Enquirer?! Since when do they ever tell the truth about anything? But, if it is true, who can blame him for fucking around? His wife, Elizabeth, is a big, fat, ugly slob who is probably gonna die of cancer soon.
Huge battle going on at Wikipedia. Hillary Clinton for VP supporters keep adding back in the info to Edwards bio and John Edwards for VP supporters keep taking it out again. Who do you support for VP? I like Edwards. I don't think this issue is really germane.
Re: no – The Enquirer has been following this for a long time. They know what they are doing - it's true!!! He is a scumbag!!!!
Re: DeLayne – You are a scumbag
Re: Sadie – You might want to read more. His wife is not dead - dumb dumb…
Re: ceec – The press is covering for him. Who is reporting this besides the Enquirer. If the story is not true then Edwards could and would sue for libel and he would win. What is he waiting for, the Enquirer first printed a story abut this affair and illegitimate child in December. If it is not true Edwards would have his lawyers all over it. He is a lawyer himself, you think he does not know his rights. Besides, what you hear and read in mainstream media is what the publisher wants you to know nothing more, nothing less.
Re: Lizzy – Elizabeth Edwards is not dead, so will not be rolling over in her grave.
Oh please. Like National Enquirer tells true stories.
I don't recall poor Eliz being dead. Maybe John E. has her locked in the pit, in his mansion.
looks like another scandal…..
…the enquirer?
Re: ihate – you have misplaced anger issues, tell you father how you really feel about him and how he ruined you. Your weak mind is the first thing everyone notices about you.
This has been known for ages. Some other guy associated with Edwards claimed to be the dad, but it is his. There have been rumors about it for quite a while. Glad he did not get the nomination. What could be worse than fooling around on your dying wife??
I knew this was true when it broke last year; but the cover-up was good, and the mainstream media isn't in the business of conducting sting operations. The National Enquirer has broken A LOT of juicy stories that then go on to become HUGE national media stories. Let's not forget that not only is John Edwards a cheating bastard, because his wife is currently battling cancer; but also because they lost a child, which is a huge, huge strain on a family. (So lay off calling Elizabeth fat; she's had a lot of trying times in her life.) Having said that, I hope she leaves him. He certainly does not deserve the nomination and I'm glad his cheating bullshit is finally exposed. We need decent public servants, not these morally bankrupt hippocrits. Poor Elizabeth. Please don't stand by your man.
The major networks have picked up this story. Apparently Bob McGovern, the guy who rented the rooms and picked up Edwards, is talking to the New York Times. Its all over for Edwards, Folks!
Sadly the National Enquierer is usually correct.
If this story is true, John Edwards' biggest sin is his lack of good taste. Did you see the picture of Rielle Hunter, she is really ugly. His wife Elizabeth is 100 times prettier and has more class. Plus, how come in the 21st century so many men don't bother using a condom, knowing what the consequences can be. I guess men are really stupid when it comes to SEX.
Re: Iknew – I pretty much loathe the Edwards' but you just laid down some righteous truth. Elizabeth DID stick with pretty boy and after their son Wade died she was the one who had to have two (2!!) kids until Johnboy finally got his replacement son. I feel so sorry for that poor unwanted little girl and I hope she'll be ok after Elizabeth dies. John can fuck off till Hell freezes over!
Share this with dad…..
Slate has a huge article today on why the media refuses to report this story. Thanks, to free agents like Perez for keeping our media honest!
He got out of the race just in time.
Naaa Enquirer not a reliable source - sorry - leave the man alone - his wife has cancer… geez
Ah, don't call the child a "bastard child." It's never the kids' fault! Please!
Ha Ha Ha! I love this! Except, I thought he was gay…
Huge New York Times article coming on Monday! Perez scooped the mainstream media again! Yeah Perez!
Definitely shows he is qualified to be VP to Obama!!!!
democrats cant survive without a daily bj from dumb ass whores
