Monika Lewinsky admits she is too gullible for dating apps as she dishes on love life after Bill Clinton affair

Former White House intern Monika Lewinsky has opened up about her love life, revealing that she 'still has a lot of issues.'. The 51-year-old activist, who famously had an affair with President Bill Clinton from 1995 until 1997, has an active dating life but has struggled to find 'the one.'. In a new interview, Monica noted that she has found dating tough at times, but that most of her romantic encounters come through being set up by friends because she's not on the apps.

'I'm not on the apps,' she shared. 'I am like, I can't. I'm going to be catfished. I am so gullible. I think it's a level of trust that is just not quite there yet.'. 'I date,' Monica continued to Rolling Stone. 'I have relationships, situationships, all the things. I've had connections with some extraordinary men. 'I've been really lucky. Not lucky enough that it's been with someone where it's worked out at the right time. It just hasn't.'.

Monica's infamous affair with former president Clinton eventually led to his impeachment. On August 17, 1998, after multiple denials, the former leader appeared on television and finally confessed he was 'solely and completely responsible' for the relationship. Monika Lewinsky has opened up about her love life, revealing that she 'still has a lot of issues'. The 51-year-old activist famously had an affair with President Bill Clinton from 1995 until 1997.

Monica has talked about the affair numerous times since it was made public. She initially retreated from the public eye, admitting she was left feeling suicidal after being hounded by reporters and ridiculed on talk shows. 'I just couldn't see a way out, and I thought that maybe was the solution,' she said years later. She admitted it was 'terrifying' to make the decision to step back into the public eye, but it has helped her to 'reclaim' the narrative about her life, following the infamous fallout over her affair with then-president.

After spending time away from the public, Monica made a grand return in 2014 with a personal essay for Vanity Fair. She has since dedicated a large portion of her time to advocating against online bullying and working to help create a safer social media environment. In 2019, she then signed on as a producer on Impeachment: American Crime Story, Ryan Murphy's series chronicling her affair with Clinton and his impeachment trial.

She went on to launch her own production company, Alt Ending Productions, in 2021 - signing a first-look deal for scripted dramas with 20th Television. Speaking to Rolling Stone, Monica said of her love life: 'I've been really lucky. Not lucky enough that it's been with someone where it's worked out at the right time. It just hasn't.'. Monica was in her early 20s when her affair with Clinton was exposed.

In his memoir, which was released in November, Clinton admitted he never apologized directly to Monica over the scandal. In Citizen, he wrote about a 2018 interview on NBC's Today Show when he admitted he was 'caught off guard' by questions on the subject. At the time, host Craig Melvin brought up the #MeToo movement and asked whether the Monica affair would warrant his resignation if it happened today.

Clinton said no and insisted that he had to fight an illegitimate impeachment. Craig followed by quoting a Monica column about how the #MeToo movement had changed her view of sexual harassment and asked whether Clinton also felt differently today. Recalling the exchange, Clinton wrote: 'I said, "No, I felt terrible then."'. '"Did you ever apologize to her?" I said that I had apologized to her and everybody else I wronged. I was caught off guard by what came next.
