Rielle Hunter is blabbing in her new book about the night she first bedded former Sen. John Edwards at a Park Ave. hotel, calling it “the most extraordinary night of my life.” Click below to read the rest of the story.
Hunter flattered the one-time presidential hopeful at the Regency Hotel in February 2006 with the line, “You are so hot,” and Edwards quickly lured her up to his room for a night of “surrender” and “zero sleep,” she writes in the trashy, forthcoming tell-all.
Hunter opens the juicy anecdote with the moment she arrived at Edwards’ door.
“The connection I felt when I walked in the door had only grown and the amount of energy between us was huge and unstoppable,” Hunter says in “What Really Happened,” which was excerpted by Radar Online on Tuesday.
“And then a moment came while we were talking when something in my heart clicked and I surrendered.
“I took off my teacher hat, let go of all my resistance to him and let him lead.
“And lead he did,” she says.
“He led me toward the most extraordinary night of my life. There was a lot of talk, a lot of laughter and zero sleep.”
The steamy tidbit was the latest dig at Edwards’ deceased wife, Elizabeth, who died of cancer in 2010, just months after her husband admitted to fathering a daughter with Hunter.
Elsewhere in the book, Hunter slams Elizabeth Edwards as a “witch on wheels” who drove her husband to cheat.
Recalling their conversation on the night of that first tryst, Hunter claims Edwards poured his heart out to her.
