Former aide to John Edwards, Andrew Young, and his wife Cheri continued to offer up their side of the story on Tuesday’s “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” even detailing the alleged sex tape of the former senator.
Andrew declined to discuss the contents of the videotape, only saying that the woman is pregnant in the video, but Cheri was more than willing to talk. She told Oprah that the man on the tape, who they say is without a doubt John Edwards, is naked, performing sexual acts and is aware that he is being videotaped. The woman in the video is holding the camera. When asked how a man running for president could participate in such a tape, Andrew called it “narcissism gone wild.”

Cheri referred to the alleged sex tape as “her security,” saying that after her husband lied about being the father to Edwards’ love child, she and Andrew felt they couldn’t get out. “We had no idea what the next month would bring,” Cheri said on the show, discussing how they moved around with Edwards’ former mistress Rielle Hunter, living in California and building a house in North Carolina. “We didn’t know how we could tell the truth.”

Andrew once again attempted to explain his reasoning for taking the fall for Edwards, saying, “I got seduced by the politics, the money, the whole thing.”
