Here is an interesting high-profile interview on "Oprah" this Thursday: Elizabeth Edwards.
This is, the show informs, a TV first.
Here's one take-away quote, or two:Winfrey: Is it a day by day thing?
Edwards: Neither one of us is out the door so I guess it's day by day, but
maybe it's month by month.
Winfrey: So you are still living together?
Edwards: Still living together.
Winfrey: Are you still in love with him?
Edwards: You know, that's a complicated question.
On the former mistress' baby:Winfrey: The other woman has a baby.
Edwards: That's what I understand.
Winfrey: And there is great speculation that your husband, John Edwards, is the father of that baby.
Edwards: That's what I understand. I've seen a picture of the baby. I have
no idea. It doesn't look like my children but I don't have any idea.
Winfrey: You must have thought is it or is it not?
The conversation continues in the June issue of O, The Oprah Magazine:
On the other woman:Edwards: This person is very different from me, and really very different from
him. We're basically old-fashioned people. So, this was a pretty big leap for
him. Maybe it's being so different is what was attractive.
On her own mortality:Edwards: It's not as frightening. If there's an ever after—please, please,
please—I would be leaving part of my family, but I can do and join another
party, and wait for that day when we're all together again. In some ways it's
something you yearn for.
