John Edwards' Alleged Love Child -- Revealed!

0723john.jpg

The National Enquirer has released the first picture of five-month-old Frances Quinn, rumored to be the love child of former senator John Edwards and mistress Rielle Hunter. "Extra" is going inside the magazine's bombshell claims -- from the $5K-a-month Virgin Islands home John allegedly paid for so Rielle could hide there -- to the supposed sexual encounter the night the two first met.

"I'm pretty courageous by nature," Rielle told "Extra" of her first encounter with Edwards in a NY bar in 2006, when she approached the Senator about filming a documentary about him. "The public persona was so different than the man sitting in front of me," said Hunter.

The Enquirer claims the two slept together that first night -- and their relationship intensified on a five-day African trip. Then there's the mag's claim that John begged Rielle not to abort her baby. "We've had the facts all along," says the Enquirer's Dorothy Cascerceri. "The Enquirer is sticking by its story that John Edwards does in fact have a love child."

I agree with DISGUSTED, but the damage has been done. The only person really hurt here is MRS. EDWARDS. The media once again could not give a damn about her, her illness or her feelings. Just make money on news story’s.
Maybe we are to blame also. After all, we buy the tabloids and read the articles. Didn’t we all click into this article to read the latest? Shame on us. Me include.

The one thing Elizabeth Edwards may always be certain of is that her husband will lie to her again and again and again.

It is shameful that the tabloids and tabloid TV are splashing this all over the news. Mr. Edward’s wife has a Terminal illness-that is unbelievably hard to deal with and then for her to go through this troubling time in her marriage privately on top of that would be enough to overwhelm anyone but now you people splash her private life all over everywhere so you can profit from it-please show some compasion and respect. I personally don’t care if Mr. Edwards has had an affair or not, the only people that need to care are the people involved. Let them work it out themselves privately! Let’s see if you print this!!

Extra Shame on you and ALL the others!!! drilling this into the ground. WHAT about Mrs. Edwards? She knows ok? Let it go and let her deal with her final days in peace. The media is one of the things wrong with this country. It’s all about the money, not the people it hurts. Mrs. Edwards and her children DON”T need the crap you smear everywhere to be the last memories they have together.

Wouldn’t it be so nice and ironic if John Edward’s wife out lives her disease. That would put a wrench in this whole mess. My thoughts and prayers go out to her and their children.

Did you hear how stupid she sound on EXTRA. “HE was very real”, “So real”, “He was very real”. Well, so Is his wife very REAL. She has a lot of nerve going on EXTRA but I guess she got paid good money. Imagine how his wife feels knowing her husband is waiting for her to die. He sure showed his true colors and support her his wife. It’s a shame.

I do not know what KT was talking about when he mentioned “globe trotting” and I think KT is an a-ss for saying,” who would not turn down a fling if their wife was going to die”. I know alot about Rielle and she does not need Johns money to take care of the baby,she has alot of money.Who mentioned MURDER, I guess KT was talking about an abortion and that was never mentioned in Angie’s comment. KT sounds like a fool.

If you were globe trotting you wouldnt turn down a fling if your wife was going to die. Lots of people have affairs, at least he is taking care of the baby and odviously stoped a MURDER of a precious baby. What is the diffirence if you kill a n old person or young person

Rielle Hunter and John Edwards are disgusting. Why would they not use birth control if they were going to become involved in an adulterous affair. His children will find this out and they will never be able to forgive him. I believe Edwards wife should leave him and take all his money.
