Monica Lewinsky is back in the spotlight—literally—as she opens up about her past experiences on the Reclaimingpodcast. The 51-year-old recently spoke about the affair she had with former U.S. President Bill Clinton, who was married to Hillary Clinton at the time. The affair took place in the 1990s while Monica was a White House intern.
According to USA Today, she shared during the episode, “I fell in love with D.C. and the White House and the job and the environment and then, very unfortunately, I fell in love with my boss who was married and also the most powerful man in the world.” Monica added, “What followed was an inappropriate relationship that lasted for two years.”
She continued, per the outlet,“What I thought was happening in those two years in D.C. and what I thought this relationship was, I’ve come to understand it in different ways…I think that it was something where there were real emotions involved, but I think I believed that there was a future. I think I believed that I mattered a lot more than I did.”
