So Over! Huma Abedin & Anthony Weiner SEPARATE After Latest Sexting Scandal
Aug. 29 2016, Updated 4:03 p.m. ET
Not only is Anthony Weiner’s political career over — but now his marriage is also!
Shortly after RadarOnline.com reported that Weiner, 51, was caught sexting with his son Jordan in bed with him, his wife Huma Abedin announced that the couple is separating.
“After long and painful consideration and work on my marriage, I have made the decision to separate from my husband,” Hillary Clinton’s aide said in a statement.
“Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what is best for our son, who is the light of our life,” she added. “During this difficult time, I ask for respect for our privacy.”
Abedin, 40, remained by Weiner’s side after his 2011 sexting scandal — just one year into their marriage. They welcomed their son later that year, but Weiner wasn't a changed man yet.
He was caught sexting again in 2013, and reports claim Abedin leaned on Clinton, 68, for advice during the trying time.

However, the couple’s relationship was doomed from the start, as Abedin admitted that their first date was horrible!
News of the separation comes just weeks before Clinton is set to face-off against Donald Trump in their first debate.
