EXCLUSIVE: 'Joe Biden stole Jill from me': Her first husband tells how she CHEATED with Democrat candidate he once considered a friend and that they have LIED about how they started dating for years
ZitatJoe Biden and his wife Jill had an affair that broke up her first marriage, her ex-husband told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview
Bill Stevenson says that their story about how the presidential candidate fell in love with Jill after a blind date is made up
The way the Bidens tell their story, Joe saw a picture of Jill in March 1975 — after her marriage crashed — and they went on a date and have been together since
But Stevenson claims he andhis then wife met Biden in 1972, when they worked on then-New Castle County Councilman Biden's first campaign for the Senate
At the time Biden was married to his first wife Neilia who died with their daughter Naomi in a car crash between the election and Biden taking his Senate seat
'Jill and I sat in the Bidens' kitchen,' Stevenson said. 'We worked on his campaign'
Stevenson said he first suspected Biden and Jill were having an affair in August 1974; He was then 26, Jill was 23 and Joe was 31
'One of her best friends told me she thought Joe and Jill were getting a little too close,' he said
That October he got confirmation when a man informed him Biden was driving his wife's car and the two of them got into a fender bender
Stevenson said: 'I asked Jill to leave the house, which she did... I considered Joe a friend. I'm not surprised he fell in love with Jill'
