Title: Monica Lewinsky Calls for Apology from Bill Clinton After Scandalous Affair

Monica Lewinsky, the former mistress of 42nd President Bill Clinton, has expressed her belief that Clinton “should want to send her an apology” following their infamous affair that led to her public downfall.

The statement comes ahead of the premiere of Impeachment: American Crime Story, a television series that delves into their scandalous relationship during the late nineties.

During an interview with Today's Savannah Guthrie, Lewinsky, now 48 years old, was asked if she thinks Clinton should apologize to her.

She responded by saying that there had been a long period in her life before things changed where she felt unresolved.

She added that Clinton “should want to apologize in the same way that I want to apologize whenever I can to people I have hurt or whose actions I have hurt.”

Lewinsky, who was just 22 years old at the time, has previously spoken about the traumatic consequences she faced as a result of their affair.

Years after her ex-friend Linda Tripp leaked recordings of her to federal prosecutors, Lewinsky found herself unable to secure employment, suffering from PTSD, and financially dependent on her parents.

Now, in the anticipated TV show, she revisits her relationship with Clinton.

During the candid interview, Lewinsky also mentioned feeling proud as a producer but admitted to being nervous as a subject.

She acknowledged that there is an “enormous amount of emotional truth” portrayed in the dramatization, revealing that she is anxious for people to witness some of the worst moments of her life and the regrettable behavior she engaged in.

Since becoming an infamous figure in the late 90s, Lewinsky has emerged as an anti-bullying activist, highlighting the mistreatment she endured during that time.

She even contributed to the new television series as a producer.

Reports suggest that Lewinsky insisted on including her more scandalous actions in the show, such as a scene where she flashed her thong to Clinton during a social event to get his attention.

The affair between Clinton and Lewinsky lasted for two years before being exposed in 1998 by Matt Drudge on his website, the Drudge Report.

The scandal erupted after Tripp recorded a phone conversation with Lewinsky, in which she discussed the affair.

Lewinsky began working as an intern in the White House in July 1995 before becoming an employee of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs.

She obtained the internship through a family friend and relocated to Washington, D.C., shortly after graduating from college.

When news of the scandal broke, Clinton denied the affair while Lewinsky had to retreat from the public eye, seeking refuge in her mother's residence.

Clinton famously stated, “I did not have s**ual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky,” during a televised White House news conference on January 26, 1998, with Hillary Clinton standing beside him.

However, evidence of the affair was later uncovered by Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr.

In July 1998, Lewinsky received immunity in exchange for testifying about her relationship with Clinton before a grand jury.

She and Clinton eventually appeared before the grand jury, with Clinton admitting to an inappropriate relationship.

The House impeached Clinton on December 19, 1998, but he was acquitted by the Senate on February 12, 1999.

While Hillary Clinton's decision to stand by Bill after the affair received extensive media coverage, she reportedly does not play a significant role in the new television series.

In recent years, Clinton has publicly addressed the affair, describing his participation as a means to alleviate his own “anxieties” in the Hulu documentary “Hillary.”

He also revealed that the couple underwent “painful” marriage counseling following the scandal.

As the premiere of Impeachment: American Crime Story approaches, the spotlight is once again on the Clinton-Lewinsky affair, prompting discussions about apologies and the lasting impact it had on those involved.
