Edwards' Mistress Broke, Living In New Jersey, Reports <em>Enquirer</em>

The new issue of the National Enquirer has an update on Rielle Hunter, the women with whom John Edwards admitted having an affair, who also claims to the mother of his love child.

The Enquirer broke the story, and now they report Hunter is broke and living with a friend in New Jersey after her sponsor died of cancer:

After her $15,000 monthly payments stopped with the death of money man Fred Baron, John Edward's mistress blonde divorcee Rielle Hunter abandoned the lavish $3 million home that was being rented for her in ritzy Santa Barbara, California, sources tell The ENQUIRER.

Now she and her 10-month-old daughter Frances, who she privately says is Edwards' love child, are living with her longtime friend Mimi Hockman in South Orange, about 20 miles west of New York City, according to insiders.

It seems Hockman's indirect support of Edwards goes way back. In 2004 she donated to Kerry's presidential campaign.
