Former McGreevey Aide Claims Trysts With Ex-Governor And Wife

The New York Post is reporting that the estranged wife of former New Jersey Gov. James McGreevey must have known he was gay, because they shared their bed with a handsome twenty-something aide:

In an explosive interview with The Post, the McGreeveys' longtime man-in-the-middle, Teddy Pedersen, recounted explicit details of alleged, titillating, three-way sex romps he had with the now-divorcing duo, starting during their courtship and continuing into the marriage.

Pedersen - who said he has already spilled the beans on the steamy ménage a trios arrangement under oath in a deposition for the couple's divorce battle - hinted that he thinks his presence was required to get Jim's motor running for Dina.

Matos McGreevey's basic claim in her divorce war with the former Garden State gov is her argument that he covered up his homosexuality and tricked her into a loveless marriage.

Pedersen - who is named in Matos McGreevey's court papers - agreed to talk about the reputed unconventional relationship after Dina repeatedly sounded off to the media last week about Eliot Spitzer's sex scandal and blasted the fallen pol as a hypocrite.

"It's frustrating to hear her call Gov. Spitzer a hypocrite while she's out there being as dishonest as anyone could be about her own life," said Pedersen, 29.

"She's framed herself as a victim - yet she was a willing participant, she had complete control over what happened in her relationship," he said.

"She was there, she knew what was happening, she made the moves. We all did. It's disgusting to watch her play the victim card."

It never ceases to amaze me how ludicrously naive, and hung up, Americans still are about sex. These sort of 3-way tryst are far more common than most people assume. And the young guy is not "gay", he's clearly "bi" -- like both sexes -- a through that apparently never occurs to many gay-bashers online. Remember the Kinsey report? Practically half -- 1 out of every 2 guys you see! -- has done it with another guy at some point in his life. There are 3-4 times as many bi guys as there are gay ones ... and most of them are happily married.

I say "happily", because even while married, they still enjoy time with both sexes. My two best friends in college (a man and a woman) were both bi, and they got married, and would both occasionally have a 3rd person over to spice things up between them. They'd tell me details often of their exploits, sometimes even with other married couples. I also have several other friends who are married, but still enjoy the occasional tryst, all with the full knowledge -- and very often full participation -- of their spouses.

Due to social pressure, everyone lies, and everyone keeps private thoughts, urges, and feelings to themselves ... especially when it comes to their sex lives. So don't assume that the public faces that people put up to society are the full story -- especially when it's a public persona like a high profile politician. No matter what public face they put up in front of the camera, there is always way more going on behind the scenes than meets the eye.

Why did the Huff Post put up a photo of the third bedroom liaison that makes him out to be seventeen years old?
Could it be that the post wanted people to think the third was under age, and that this was a crime.

You guys are just as bad as FOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if it is true what he says , in my opinion he is a pig, and now he tries to have moneytary gains out of
this nasty threesome. I don't care and from me he won't get another click or a penny. All three are in my opinion pigs. Has nothing to do with sexual orientation. No women should ever lower herself to
keep a marriage going that's dead and molded.

You poor puritanical Americans. Give over already. You are gluttons for sleaze. Other nations laugh at your naive and love hate relationship with down and dirty sex.

you got down and dirty sex mixed up with marriage and a vow. If you want down and dirty sex, that's fine but don't involve your children that have to read the next day headlines about their parents. Give me a break. Have the courage to stay single , you can have all the dirty sex you want.

Ever contemplate the possibility that we are right and the great numbers of unwashed are wrong? That we have a better fix on the importance of right and wrong in life instead of being ignorant of the impact of these devastating morality plays on families and children? If we are puritanical, you must live in a real sewer, bud.

Wouldn't this make her memoir a fraud?

Remember how much crap James Frey (A Million Little Pieces) got when it turned out his book was "embellished". I wonder if she will get the same treatment

Regurgitate BS from the NY Post with an add at the bottom of the page for "I Fucked Your Wife" ringtones. Nice HuffPo, real nice. Just change the name to The Enquirer and no one will notice the difference.

Considering the (character??) of McGreevey and what he's done and continues to do to his wife and child ,I'd guess this is just another dirty smear to her !!
What a disgusting person ! I am willing to bet the little Snake Pederson is being Paid by McGreevey's new Rich boyfriend !! After all you know they've been trying to discredit her in their favor in a custody battle .

Actually, I thought it was the boy toy who called her out because he was sick of her lying in commenting on the Spitzer case. Maybe he was paid but since McGreevey is on some form of religious retreat (or he was), I'd doubt the ex-gov put Pederson up to this.

I read in another article that Pederson is saying McG showed very little interest in him in bed, and he didn't even think McG was gay. ?Che? Pederson now has a girlfriend. Think mebbee he's doing some damage control?

This guy Teddy Pedersen is a sleezbag; the reason McGreevey resigned was because even after trying to place him in a series of cushy jobs (that he refused to even show up to), the guy tried to blackmail McGreevey for $2 Million.

McGreevey has been out of office for over 3 years -why is this news? This just shows how desparate the republicans are to find a democrat who HASN'T had an affair with the opposite sex. They're just trying to manufacture a string of sex scandals like the (real) ones that cost them both houses.
