cnn news 2013-07-29

Of course, have the Britain's new princemaking his public debut today. That a lot in depth tonight.

But first breaking news and there's noprince charming in it. Anthony Weiner, the sex thing congressman who resignedin disgrace and is now running for mayor New York, admitting just sendingadditional sexually explicit message more than a year after stepping down fromcongress and not long after a flattering spread in people magazine about hisnew son and rebuild family life. Again, he was doing this for a year after heshamefully resign from congress after he apologized to his constituents afterpublically apologized to his wife. And speaking his wife Huma, she was by hisside when Weiner spoke to reporters today.

Some of these things happen before my resignation,some of them happened after but the fact is that that's also the time that mywife and I were working through some things in our marriage.

Well, explicit message were sent on FormSpring according to website called dirty.com which publish them. We allegedlyusing the online handle Carlos Danger. The question tonight what drove him tokeep at it long after it seemed he was over it long after it wrecked his careerand strained this marriage. A sex relationship expert joined us later theprogram, but first Dana Bash has the latest.

You covered the Weiner scandal when itbroke around two years ago. Did you ever in your wildest imagine think youcould see what you thought today?

No, I mean not a chance. First, let's justgo back in time. I still couldn't believe what happen, happened at that time.But certainly no one the people who were close to him, no one the people whoare around them. It seems very clear that was his wife giving him a secondchance on that he was going to therapy and dealing with it. And what was one ofthe many things that was extraordinary by the press conference today was thatit was Huma Abedin herself, his wife who revealed the news that just a yearago. That he was still engaging in this activity. Listen to what she said.

Our marriage like many others it has itsups and its downs. It took a lot of work and the whole a lot of therapy to getto a place where I could forgive Anthony. It was not an easy choice in any way.But I made the decision that was worth staying in this marriage.

So, Dana, I mean, the timing of this, I amassuming this means he was sending these explicit sexual messages to otherpeople while his wife was pregnant even after his child was born. Is thatcorrect?

It certainly seems that way. I mean if yousort of do the math going back when he resigned on the first place. Huma, thatwas when she revealed that she was pregnant, she was just pregnant. I think shewas in the first trimester. If you look at what was on the dirty.com, it saidthat he was sending these messages in July and August 2012. Their son was bornin December 2011. So, it appeared that way, but we don't know for sure thoseare the dates. But it did make clear that happened well into last year.

There are obviously, you know one of thewhen this press conference ended, when they were walking away, one reporter waskind of yelling out why should anybody trust you. That was a question he didn'tanswer. You know, who Huma Abedin personally. How unusual is it for her speakpublicly like this? Because I don't think I've ever heard her speak like this.

You know, I don't know her well, butcertainly know a lot of people do know her well. She is very well respected.You know, she almost like Cher and Madonna is and the rest of world here in Washington,she is just known as Huma because she is such fixture especially in HilaryClinton's inner circle, she has been for decades now. There has been a lotAnderson, written about how private she is. She certainly is. She is a very tightloyal circle of friends. She is also incredibly politically sophisticated. Notonly did that she learned on the knee of Hilary Clinton, the most famous kindof stand-by-her man, political wife. She also with the goal to a person foranyone who want to get Hilary Clinton, which means that she had to be one ofthe most discerning, savvy figures in politics, so we have to remember thatabout her, as well.
