John Edward’s mistress said in an interview with ABC News set to air Friday that the former vice presidential nominee’s marriage already had problems before she entered the picture.

“Their marriage was ruined before I got there. Years before I got there,” Rielle Hunter told Chris Cuomo.

Hunter claimed she went to Edwards’ hotel room because she “believed I could help him.”

“The full truth has good and bad in it, and I feel for both my daughter and for all the kids involved,” Hunter says. “Their father is not a demon and there mother is not a saint, and I’m not a homewrecker. We’re real human beings and there was a real dynamic that was going on and we all made mistakes.”
