Monica Lewinsky said former President Bill Clinton should “want to apologize” for their sexual affair in the 1990s.
Lewinsky spoke on Today Tuesday about how she felt in the aftermath of her sex scandal with the 42nd president and how he should feel.
“He should want to apologize in the same way I want to apologize any chance I get to people my actions have hurt,” she said.
The former White House intern discussed how the incident has affected her life in the years since the affair.
“There was a long period, before my life changed in the last six or seven years, where I felt a lot in terms of there not being this resolution,” she told Today. “I’m very grateful that I don’t have that feeling anymore. I don’t need it.”
Lewinsky is a producer on the FX miniseries American Crime Story: Impeachment, which brings her relationship with Clinton to the small screen.

Lewinsky made recommendations on the scripts but is unsure whether she would want Clinton watching the program, she said.
“I don’t even know how to really answer that,” Lewinsky said.
She wanted to make the series as honest as possible and worked hard to include essential moments, she added.

“It is a dramatization, but there is an enormous amount of emotional truth, and I think that’s what was really important,” she said. “I think a lot of people know about this story, but people are going to be very surprised when they watch it, at things they didn’t know happened.”
