In a surprising revelation, CNN anchor Jake Tapper recently opened up about his brief romantic connection with Monica Lewinsky during the late 1990s. While the two only went on a few dates, Tapper shared some candid details about their time together, offering a glimpse into their short-lived relationship. The news came as a surprise to many, as both have maintained relatively private personal lives despite their high-profile careers.
Tapper mentioned that he and Lewinsky met in Washington, D.C., when she was at the center of the scandal involving then-President Bill Clinton. Despite the media frenzy surrounding her, Tapper described Lewinsky as intelligent, kind, and funny. He also acknowledged the challenges she faced during that time and expressed admiration for how she handled herself in the aftermath of the scandal.
Although their dating life didn’t develop into anything long-term, Tapper emphasized that Lewinsky had been through an incredibly difficult period, and they parted ways amicably. Today, both are successful in their respective fields, with Tapper as a well-known journalist and Lewinsky becoming an advocate for anti-bullying and a vocal critic of public shaming in the digital age.
