NEW YORK (CBS) Rielle Hunter may be regretting breaking her silence - or at the very least the part where she posed for photos wearing a white shirt and no pants on a bed with Dora the Explorer.

Hunter reportedly "cried for two hours" after she saw the pictures she deemed "repulsive" that accompanied the 10,000 word interview she did with GQ magazine, according to Barbara Walters.

Monday morning on "The View" Walters recounted a conversation she had with Hunter after Hunter saw the photos. Hunter said she trusted the photographer, Mark Seliger, to take classy photos and just "went with the flow."

One of the photographs in question is of Hunter in sweat pants and a shirt lying on a bed with her daughter Francis Quinn, 2.

The GQ interviewer, Lisa DePaulo, said she spoke to hunter Sunday night and Hunter expressed reservations about the photographs but DePaulo hopes "she will come to see those photos as beautiful. I think it's cool that she's pretty and sexy," according to People magazine.

Conde Nast, GQ's publisher, says they're trying to reach the photographer and until then have have no comment.
