VIDEO: Elizabeth Edwards Discusses Paternity Test on Larry King

Elizabeth Edwards showed poise and class when talk show host Larry King asked her Wednesday night about a paternity test to determine if her husband, ex-U.S. Senator John Edwards, is the father to the 18-month-old baby of Rielle Hunter, the sexy videographer the handsome politician has acknowledged a past fling with.

"I -- my expectation is at some point, something happens," Elizabeth said of the pending test. "And I hope for the -- for the sake of -- of this child that -- that it happens, you know, in a quiet way."

The baby, Frances, was born last year, but the ex-presidential candidate had earlier claimed he stopped having sex with Hunter long before the child was conceived.

"We're getting the children ready for a new school year," she said. "Everything seems to be going pretty smoothly at my house."
