U.S tech entrepreneur, Jennifer Arcuri has reportedly admitted having an affair with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, while he was still the mayor of London.
Boris Johnson avoided a criminal investigation, after the investigating authorities found no evidence that he influenced the payment of thousands of pounds of public money to Acuri, or secured her participation in foreign trade trips that he led.
Asked by the Daily Mail if she had an affair with Boris Johnson when he was still married to his ex wife Marina Wheeler, Arcuri said
“I think that goes without saying …It’s pretty much out there … But I’m not going to talk about it.”
When asked if she loved him, Jennifer Arcuri was quoted as saying
“At the time I cared for him very deeply, but I never used the L word. I wouldn’t have recognised being in love. I cared very much about this man and I think that’s resolutely clear. That’s all I want to say.”
