Rielle Hunter and John Edwards Split Up

[monmouth]

Rielle Hunter and John Edwards ended their controversial relationship last week, just days after her new book debuted and she went public about how they met, hid their affair and had a baby girl together.

"We are a family, but as of the end of last week John Edwards and I are no longer a couple. Not at all," Hunter told ABC's George Stephanopoulos on "Good Morning America." When asked if she still loved Edwards, Hunter replied, "I do."

Stephanopoulos asked if Edwards still loved her and she said, "You have to ask him. I think he does."

Nevertheless, the couple split, she said, worn down by the scrutiny and pressure brought on by their high profile affair that began while Edwards was running for the 2008 presidential nomination.

1. Alternate juror #3 rejoices. n/t

[monmouth]

2. Haha, yes, I bet she does rejoice. Forgot about her..n/t

[AngryOldDem]

6. I'll bet that's the reason.

John has moved on.

[littlewolf]

8. LOL always hunting .... heh

Remember if someone will do it with you ....
they will do it to you ....

[hamsterjill]

13. Absolutely!!!

Wise words.

Next, we'll be hearing that Edwards is being treated for his sex addiction, right? Anything to keep his name in the public forum.

And Rielle Hunter's book publishers are going "cha-ching, cha-ching" because there will probably be people who actually WILL buy the book. As for me, I'll wait for the movie! LOL

[monmouth]

15. Starring Lindsey Lohan, I'm sure...LOL...n/t

[GObamaGO]

23. If LiLo survives that long.

[ornotna]

58. I'm sure John would give it a go

But according to her, no way. "He's a Democrat, so that counts him out for me already."

[AngryAmish]

3. noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[Fawke Em]

4. Maybe it's because she called the dead mother of his children

a "witch on wheels" in several interviews?

Hmmmm.....

[seabeyond]

12. that would assume edwards gave a shit. i am not quite there. nt

[Fawke Em]

14. He might not have, but his children might.

His kids might have put pressure on him to "move on."

[seabeyond]

18. again, lol, i am not there either.

but, who knows.

[Capt. Obvious]

46. Ha!

Now his children can guide his moral compass?

[Fawke Em]

68. Well, someone needs to!

[crimson77]

54. After this I'm begining to believe true love doesn't exist, If Kim and Kanye break up I'm done.

[kwassa]

64. If Rielle and John can't make it work, who can?

[AngryOldDem]

5. NOW will they both go away and leave the rest of us alone??? n/t

[Blue_Tires]

66. +infinity

[southernyankeebelle]

7. She is nothing but a home wrecker. He is nothing but a cheater. Sad the only innocents

are all the children. If she really loved Edwards she wouldn't write terrible stuff about Mrs Edwards. Mrs Edwards might not have been perfect but she was married to the cheater for 30 yrs. In the end he should of been there for her.

[CleanLucre]

9. they were together?

[Iggo]

44. ^^^ This ^^^

[CleanLucre]

47. May Elizabeth Rest In Peace

[UTUSN]

10. One of the two scumbags is on The View, says doesn't believe in infidelity!1 n/t

[seabeyond]

11. i think telling the world she is a "slut" would have done it for me.

[4th law of robotics]

16. Did he call her a slut?

[seabeyond]

17. "She's a 'crazy slut,'

"She's a 'crazy slut,' " former aide Andrew Young says Edwards told him.

http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20589887,00.html

[4th law of robotics]

19. Classy.

[seabeyond]

22. no expectations of classy, either. nt

[rivegauche]

55. The two of them are peas in a sleazy, nasty pod. nt

[1monster]

34. On the other hand, Andrew Young isn't exactly a grand example of integrity either.

Maybe if we all close our eyes, put our fingers in our ears and sing "lalalalalalala" at the top of our voices, they'll go away?

Probably not. Rielle Hunter, especially, seems to court the spotlight and doesn't seem to care that she is reviled by all as, at best, unsavory...

[seabeyond]

35. true all that. nt

[cwydro]

33. Whoopi kicked her ass on The View.

I missed the whole interview, and can't find it online dangit!

I saw the first part, but not the end.

[seabeyond]

36. and this is actually what our conversations are about, lol. good for whoopi.

but then, a pattern with whoopi is going after the woman and half way defending the man. to me, they are equal pos. so, i guess it depends on the position whoopi took

[cwydro]

41. She blasted her for "trashing a dead woman"

She asked her, "Did you not think that might not be a good idea?"

Unfortunately I missed the rest.

[seabeyond]

56. ahhh. nt

[sinkingfeeling]

20. So mom was right. You have an affair & a kid and the guy isn't going to

marry you.

[Botany]

21. I wish their child well and I hope that John Edwards' family find some peace but ....

.... it is now time for both Rielle & John to go away and stay away forever.
John can help build homes for the needy and both of them can concentrate
on their child's wild being but as i said before it is now time for them to be
gone from the public scene forever.

P.S. If you see John please ask him for my $200.00 back

P.S.S. I guess Ms. Hunter's publicity tour didn't sit well w/ John. Fuck 'em both.

P.S.S.S. John Edwards said yes to Kerry to be on the ticket knowing he had or was
going to have a child w/ a women who was not his wife. Rielle and John's
child was born in 2004? I just read that. Fuck you John Edwards!

[GObamaGO]

24. She conceived her child in May of 2007

Not in 2004.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

25. What a shame...they seemed like such a nice couple.

Note to Stephanopoulos: Please don't ask Edwards if he still loves her. We don;t need to know.

[seabeyond]

26. so many things about this picture that make me say

parent to a daughter? oh, good luck little girl.

my son loved his barney.

[BlueIris]

29. To paraphrase a great American, "When you're a mother, you should behave in ways..."

"...that show that is the role you value."

Nothing about that photo says, "I value my child (and the emotional experiences she will have now that everyone and his brother in her second grade class can call it up on the Internet whenever they feel like it.)"

She is awful.

[seabeyond]

30. that is a good way

to express it.

[BlueIris]

32. I was paraphrasing Elizabeth Edwards.

Who was asked to comment on that godawful photo during the Larry King interview a couple of years ago.

[seabeyond]

37. interesting .... blueiris

thanks.

i really have not followed along. and rarely participate in these threads.

[OriginalGeek]

42. (blatantly stolen from someone here)

[EmeraldCityGrl]

61. Her 15 minutes are over...

do us all a favor and fade into obscurity from where she came.

[seabeyond]

65. both. i cannot believe the things that get to be news today. 24 hours to fill

and the nets to fill.... lots of trash fillers.

[Enrique]

28. on the bright side they're both available now n/t

[Amerigo Vespucci]

51. I think society refers to their type as "quite the catch."

[zappaman]

52. Is there something horrible about this photo?

Seriously, what am I missing?
Is it the creepy unicorn peering out from behind the pillow or what?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

62. John Edwards' mistress, not wearing pants, surrounded by stuffed animals

I can fucking HEAR that "SCREE, SCREE, SCREE" Alfred Hitchcock Psycho shower music just LOOKING at the Hunter GQ pics.

[PCIntern]

59. She's not wearing any underpants...

Just saying...

[hlthe2b]

27. I so want to say something really FOUL about each of them and both of them...

but neah, not worth the effort.

I'll say something nice for the children, however. I hope that life treats you better than you have had it the past few years.

[Auntie Bush]

31. I also feel sorry for their poor little daughter is she is the innocent victim of these two lousy

parents. I wonder if she'll ever forgive them when she finds out there duel treachery?
How awful to find out your famous when your only about 6 years old. Why does everyone always want to take pictures of me Mommy?

[JHB]

38. So what? n/t

[BeyondGeography]

39. Riellity bites

[Beacool]

40. I'm shocked, I tell you, shocked that this love story has come to an end.

What starts bad, ends bad.

Two weasels. I pity the beautiful child they had together. What parents has fate given her!!!!

[mfcorey1]

43. Used and discarded. Just what she deserves.

[Freddie Stubbs]

57. She also deserves scorn and ridicule

[LynneSin]

45. She's nothing more than a golddigging idiot

Sure, Edwards was just as responsible (and btw he's slime too). But Hunter went into this relationship knowing that Edwards was a married man. If she had any class she would have just walked away. Where I come from we call women like her 'Celebrityfuckers'. If John Edwards was just a regular guy with a 9-5 job and a mortgage she wouldn't even looked at him.

[cwydro]

49. So true.

I can't stand him either...but she's a nasty piece of work.

That poor child gets to read all this when she grows up.

[florida evans]

48. A nation mourns...

[MineralMan]

50. More evidence that blind hero-worship is a dangerous thing

when it comes to political candidates.

[Blue Owl]

53. Maybe Santorum was right -- there are bleh people after all

n/t

[Raine]

60. Gee who in their right mind didn't see that coming? Oh yeah Rielle ...

Dumb goldigger got used and then discarded like a used butt rag. Little enough justice after she deprived Elizabeth of dying in peace and still continued her nasty hateful bitterness toward a dead woman.

[NoPasaran]

63. They say you should not speak ill of the dead

But John Edwards is still living. So fuck him. Fuck his coal black heart. Scumbag.

[Marrah_G]

67. The losers in all of this crap are the children. nt
