“I really had to dig down deep and think hard about what was right for me, what was right for my family,” the Democratic presidential hopeful told Tyra Banks during her apperance taped Monday and set to air Friday. “I never doubted Bill’s love for me ever, and I never doubted my faith and my commitment to our daughter and our extended family.”
Still, she admitted, she grappled with feelings of anger and embarrassment.
“The momentary feelings — you know, you are mad, you are really upset, you are disappointed — all of that goes through your mind …” Clinton said. “I have found you really shouldn’t make decisions in the heat of those moments.”
After surviving such a high-profile affair, Banks noted, women must come up and say, “My husband is stepping out on me,” and ask, ” What is Clinton’s advice?”
“I say you have to be true to yourself,” Clinton said. “No one story is the same as any other story. I don’t know your reality. I can’t possibly substute my judgment for yours. … You have to do what is right for you and that may not be what anybody else believes.”
On a lighter note, the N.Y. Senator also proposed launching a reality show to come up with a new tle for “First Lady” should Bill inherit the role.
“Here are some of the things that have been suggested, like ‘ First Mate.’ His Scottish friends say ‘First Laddy.’ But we need ideas,” she said. “I’ll just keep calling him Bill.”
