Chelsea Clinton Spotted For The First Time Days After Her Dad Bill Clinton's Affair With Monica Lewinsky Reemerges

Chelsea Clinton was seen for the first time just days after the infamous affair between her dad, the former President Bill Clinton, and Monica Lewinsky resurfaced.
The mom of three went for a jog by herself around the Hamptons neighborhood. She was seen sporting a shirt from Hillside Country, a red hat, bike shorts, and Brooks running shoes while getting her workout in on Thursday.
Chelsea was photographed calm and relaxed in the rare outing as her dad’s scandal gets thrown back into public consciousness ahead of Ryan Murphy’s Impeachment: American Crime Story — which is scheduled to air next week on September 7.
"Impeachment: American Crime Story will…explore the overlooked dimensions of the women who found themselves caught up in the scandal and political war that cast a long shadow over the Clinton Presidency," FX chairman John Landgraf teased.
The upcoming television special will take a deep look at Bill's sex scandal with then-White House intern Lewinsky, played by Clive Owen and Beanie Feldstein.
Chelsea's outing comes just days after mom Hillary Clinton appeared unhappy alongside Bill at their annual beach gateway in the Hamptons. Hillary was spotted walking several feet in front of her husband during what was supposed to be a romantic sunset stroll.
The energy surrounding the couple seemed intense as they were escorted by the Secret Service.
On the weekend, Bill made an appearance all by himself at a charity softball game and seemed to be in good spirits. Hillary was nowhere in sight despite them being on their annual vacation together.
Chelsea was only a teenager when the scandal took place, which occurred in the '90s when her dad was in office.
She now has three kids Charlotte, 6, Aidan, 5, and Jasper, 2 whom she shares with husband Marc Mezvinsky. The couple wed in July 2010 at the Astor Courts estate in Rhinebeck, New York.
Earlier this month, it was announced that Chelsea is continuing to write her popular She Persisted children’s series with She Persisted in Science: Brilliant Women Who Made a Difference.
The 41-year-old launched the series in 2017 and reportedly named it after a remark made by then-Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who was trying to silence Sen. Elizabeth Warren during a debate.
Chelsea’s new installment of the series is set to be out on March 1, 2022.
