Monica Lewinsky Recalls Her ‘Terror’ As She Opens Up About Finding Joy After Affair With Prez Clinton | News

Monica Lewinsky has revealed how making the ‘terrifying’ decision to step back into the public eye has helped her to ‘reclaim’ the narrative about her life, following the infamous fallout over her affair with then-president Bill Clinton.

The American activist, who recently turned 50, spoke candidly on the Today show about how the ‘younger generations’ played a huge part in helping to change the attitudes about her story, resulting in her 40s being the ‘best decade’ of her life.

Opening up to host Savannah Guthrie on Tuesday, Monica admitted that she felt ‘incredibly grateful’ to now be seen as a respected writer after initially having to shy away from the limelight in the years after her part in the political scandal that sent shockwaves across the globe.
