Edwards Off Paternity Hook… For Now

John-EdwardsDespite the wishes of her sister, former John Edwards bedmate Rielle Hunter doesn't want the haircut-and-pants to take a paternity test to determine whether or not he is the father of her baby. "Hunter said through her attorney that she would not take a genetic test 'now or in the future.' The attorney, Robert Gordon, called Hunter a 'private' person who is 'not running for public office' and would not comment further on the media frenzy engulfing her. 'She wishes to maintain her privacy and her daughter's privacy,' he said in the statement. 'Furthermore, Rielle will not participate in DNA testing or any other invasion of her or her daughter's privacy now or in the future.'" [Washington Post]
