Jerry Falwell Jr., suspended as president of Virginia’s Christian-focused Liberty University after a string of embarrassing acts, today said that he has suffered depression caused by a former family friend who had an affair with his wife and has been threatening to expose it.
In a statement exclusively to [the Washington Examiner] Secrets, Falwell revealed his wife Becki’s affair for the first time, said it was short lived and that the two reconciled quickly.
But, they claimed, her former lover has threatened them over the past several years and they are done with it hanging over their heads.
“I’m just tired of it,” said Falwell of the anxiety he’s felt about the affair becoming public and embarrassing his family and Liberty. “It’s just got to end,” he added.
The 1,200-word statement -- shown below -- followed the Liberty board’s decision to put Falwell on paid leave after he posted a “costume party” picture of him on a yacht with his pants partially unzipped and his arm around his wife's assistant.

Stay tuned, this is going to get more tawdry.
