Edwards Admits to Sexual Affair; Lied as Presidential Candidate

John Edwards repeatedly lied during his presidential campaign about an extramarital affair with a novice filmmaker, the former Senator admitted to ABC News today.

In an interview for broadcast tonight on the program Nightline, Edwards told ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff that he had an affair with 44-year-old Rielle Hunter, but said he loved her.

Edwards also denied he was the father of Hunter’s daughter, Frances Quinn, although the former Democratic presidential candidate said he has not taken a paternity test.

Edwards said he knew he was not the father on the basis of time the baby is born on 27 February 2008. He said his affair ended too soon for him to have been the father.
