Security Guard Confirms Late-Night Encounter Between Former Sen. John
Edwards, Tabloid Reporters In Beverly Hills Hotel
Friday , July 25, 2008
ADVERTISEMENT A hotel security guard told FOXNews.com he intervened this
week between a man he identified as former Sen. John Edwards and tabloid
reporters who chased down the former presidential hopeful after what they're
calling a rendezvous with his mistress and love child.
The Beverly Hilton Hotel guard said he encountered a shaken and ashen-faced
Edwards - whom he did not immediately recognize - in a hotel men's room
early Tuesday morning in a literal tug-of-war with reporters on the other
side of the door.
"What are they saying about me?" the guard said Edwards asked.
"His face just went totally white," the guard said, when Edwards was told
the reporters were shouting out questions about Edwards and Rielle Hunter, a
woman the National Enquirer says is the mother his child.
The guard said he escorted Edwards, who was not a registered guest at the
hotel, out of the building after 2 a.m. Edwards did not say anything while
he was escorted out, said the guard, adding that at times the reporters on
the scene were "rough on him," sticking a camera in his face and shouting
questions.
The guard did not recognize Edwards at the time of the incident, but said he
concluded it was the 2008 presidential hopeful after hearing reports about
the incident and finding an Enquirer reporter's notebook at the scene.
The guard said during the chase the reporters had dropped the notebook,
which he picked up. "This book has everything in it on him," he said,
referring to Edwards. The guard later confirmed Edwards' identity after
being shown a photograph.
A former campaign staffer, speaking on condition of anonymity, told
FOXNews.com he wishes he were "more surprised" to hear reports Edwards was
visiting Hunter. "I'm definitely upset by it. I wish I was more surprised,
though."
Edwards this week has repeatedly refused to comment on the Enquirer report.
Asked about it on Thursday at an event in New Orleans, he said: "I have no
idea what you're asking about. I've responded, consistently, to these
tabloid allegations by saying I don't respond to these lies and you know
that ... and I stand by that."
Enquirer Editor-in-Chief David Perel told FOXNews.com his reporters caught
Edwards visiting Hunter and her baby at the hotel earlier Monday evening.
Perel said Hunter and Edwards have been occasionally getting together so
Edwards can see the baby. Hunter came to Beverly Hills with a male friend,
Bob McGovern, said Perel. Hunter and her companion reportedly booked two
rooms under McGovern's name, and McGovern picked up Edwards to bring him
back to the hotel.
Perel said Enquirer staff had been given information about the planned
Edwards-Hunter meeting, and the tabloid sent reporters to the hotel in
anticipation of Edwards' arrival. According to the Enquirer, Edwards was
first spotted being dropped off at the hotel at 9:45 p.m. PT, about 25
minutes after reporters watched McGovern leave the building in his BMW.
Edwards went to Hunter's room and the two left the hotel together and
returned 45 minutes later, Perel said. Edwards reportedly entered her room
and stayed there until after 2:30 a.m. PT.
FOXNews.com could not independently confirm the Enquirer's allegations.
Perel also declined to identify where the Enquirer received the information
about Edwards' alleged visits.
Perel told FOXNews.com that after leaving Hunter's room, Edwards took an
elevator to the basement, where he was confronted by two Enquirer reporters.
He ran into the bathroom, where he remained until the security guard
arrived.
The Enquirer says it has videotape showing Hunter entering the room where
she met Edwards, and shows Edwards leaving the same room. However, the
Enquirer has thus far declined repeated requests by FOXNews.com to release
any photographs or videotape evidence of the incident.
Linda Simonetti, Director of Public Relations at the Beverly Hilton, said
she has "no information that he was there or that this incident occurred."
As recently as last month, individuals vetting vice presidential candidates
for Barack Obama had listed Edwards as a potential running mate. Edwards was
viewed as a candidate who could help Obama appeal to white, working-class
voters who had favored Hillary Clinton in the primaries.
Edwards, who was John Kerry's running mate in 2004, endorsed Obama in May,
saying the presumptive presidential nominee held the same views he did about
uniting a divided America.
Before and during the Democratic primaries, Edwards urged all candidates to
boycott planned debates on FOX News, even though he had made prior
appearances on the channel. One of those debates was to be sponsored by the
Congressional Black Caucus.
Last October, the Enquirer reported that several sources said a former
campaign worker on Edwards' campaign had been having an affair with the
former North Carolina senator. In an e-mail allegedly written by Hunter to a
friend, she wrote that she is "in love with John," but it's "difficult
because he is married and has kids."
Edwards' wife Elizabeth, whom many have credited as being one of the driving
forces behind Edwards' campaign, announced in March that her breast cancer
had re-emerged after going into remission following a 2004 diagnosis.
Hunter has said that the father of her child is former Edwards campaign
official Andrew Young. The 41-year-old married father of three has also said
he is the father.
