Report: Edwards to Admit Fathering Ex-Mistress' Child
(CBS/ AP)
Edwards acknowledged the affair last summer but has previously denied that he fathered the child, whose name is Frances.
As WRAL notes, longtime Edwards aide Andrew Young initially claimed paternity but is now writing a book in which he will say Edwards is the girl's actual father.
Hunter testified last week at the federal courthouse where a grand jury is investigating whether campaign funds were illegally used to buy her silence.
The sources told WRAL Edwards could acknowledge paternity before the investigation concludes.
