Politics | John Edwards Rielle Hunter 'Repulsed' Rielle Hunter Knew What She Was Doing: GQ Edwards mistress got a look at photos that later 'repulsed' her By Marie Morris Posted Mar 16, 2010 1:55 PM CDT Copied In this Feb. 3, 2010, photo provided by GQ, Rielle Hunter holds Frances Quinn, her 2-year-old daughter fathered by John Edwards, at her home in Charlotte, NC. (AP Photo/GQ, Mark Seliger) Rielle Hunter says she was blindsided by the sexy photos accompanying her GQ interview, but video evidence suggests otherwise. The photographer who captured the pants-free portraits even offered John Edwards' mistress a look at the images, as shown in a video released by the magazine. "Rielle is a smart woman," reporter Lisa DePaulo said today on Good Morning America. "She knows what she wore and what she was doing in the photo shoot." Barbara Walters said on The View yesterday that Hunter said she "cried for 2 hours" after seeing the GQ photos and "thought they were repulsive."
