August 8, 2008 - 1:30 pm
John Edwards says he made a serious error in judgment when he had an affair and is ashamed of his conduct. In a statement, the former Democratic presidential candidate also said he informed his wife about his affair with 42-year-old Rielle Hunter in 2006 and has asked her forgiveness. Edwards said he is not the father of the woman’s daughter and is willing to take a test to determine the 5-month-old baby’s paternity.
