Funeral for Elizabeth Edwards Planned for Saturday

Elizabeth Edwards' funeral will be this Saturday in Raleigh North Carolina. Big crowds are expected at Elizabeth Edwards' funeral, which is public- although the burial is private. Many people are talking about the accomplishments of Edwards, who was known in recent years because of her husband's infidelities.

She and John Edwards, the former Senator and presidential hopeful, never divorced, but were estranged. John denied that a daughter born to Rielle Hunter named Quinn was his. However, paternity tests later revealed that the Senator who had two young children with his wife of many years was also the father of the young girl.

Now, many are wondering what will happen. Elizabeth Edwards died after a long battle with Cancer. She was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer the day after the 2004 General elections. The cancer was reported to have went into remission, but returned.

Only days ago, friends of Elizabeth Edwards told the media that further medical treatment of her ailment was futile. As such, her days were expected to be numbered.

The accomplished attorney will be laid to rest next to her son, Wade who was killed in an accident when he was 16.

Thank you Elizabeth Edwards for your amazing life and accomplishments. If you plan on attending the funeral for Elizabeth Edwards this Saturday, let us know below.

Elizabeth Edwards Facebook Page Bears Final Facebook Message Before Death

Elizabeth Edwards' Facebook page bears a final Facebook message before her death at age 61 of cancer. Elizabeth Edwards took to Facebook yesterday, after some friends told the press that her cancer was too serious for further treatment.

Her final Facebook message reads:

“I have been sustained throughout my life by three saving graces -- my family, my friends, and a faith in the power of resilience and hope. These graces have carried me through difficult times and they have brought more joy to the good times than I ever could have imagined. The days of our lives, for all of us, are numbered. We know that.”

Elizabeth Edwards suffered from Breast Cancer, and found a lump in her breast during the 2004 presidential election campaign. She was in support of her husband, who was running with John Kerry for the Democratic campaign against Bush 2's re-election. She was diagnosed with stage 2 cancer the day after the general election.

Edwards was sidelined later on when it was revealed that he not only had an affair, but also fathered a child out of wedlock. Edwards' little girl, Quinn, was born out of the affair between John Edwards and Rielle Hunter.

Rielle has not expressed any remorse for the affair. John Edwards' political career is over.

Rest in peace, Elizabeth Edwards. The Facebook message she posted yesterday was a great final message, wasn't it?

Elizabeth Edwards Divorce and Interview Airs on Today

Elizabeth Edwards divorce is surfacing again, as the estranged wife of disgraced politician John Edwards opened up to Matt Lauer about her life. Although John and Elizabeth aren't legally divorced - they don't live together. For those unfamiliar with the situation, John Edwards had an affair with Rielle Hunter. This affair led to the birth of Quinn, Edwards' illegitimate daughter.

Elizabeth has done interviews before, but this time she's going head to head with Matt Lauer in an interview that is set to air this morning on the Today Show.

According to the Huffington Post, Edwards compares herself with Sandra Bullock. In a way she has a point - these two women are amazing and strong, and yet they are defined by their failed marriages instead of their successes.

Sandra won an Academy Award and adopted a baby -but the first thing that comes to mind is Jesse James and his slew of affairs.

Elizabeth Edwards has a book and was a successful career woman all her life, but when we hear her name we think about John Edwards and his scandalous affair and illegitimate child.

However, does speaking out about any affair or situation make it so that people will forget the misfortune? If Elizabeth Edwards doesn't want to be remembered for her husband's infidelity, shouldn't she ... not talk about it?

Still yet, our curiosity fuels the stories. If we didn't care, then she wouldn't have a story to tell. Tune in to the Today show to see what Elizabeth Edwards has to share with the world.

Elizabeth Edwards about John Edwards Scandal

Elizabeth Edwards was the wife of Senator and former vice-presidential hopeful John Edwards. We all know that John was outed by the National Enquirer after having an illegitimate child with his mistress. Even though she had cancer, Elizabeth Edwards had enough and is now separated from her husband of 30 years.

It's stories like the John Edwards story that make the National Enquirer seem almost...credible. They recently broke a story about Al Gore and a masseuse who dubbed him a "sex crazed poodle." The 50-plus masseuse claims that Gore forced himself on her and demanded favors during his massage. She spoke with authorities about the matter. We're still waiting to see what transpires about this story.

Elizabeth is now opening up for the first time since separating from her husband. He's now got another child, his daughter with Rielle Hunter. Rielle was recently seen in the pages of GQ in a suggestive photo shoot.

Mrs. Edwards shows strength and determination. Although devastating, she hasn't let her husband's infidelities define her.

Cate Edwards, John and Elizabeth's 28 year old daughter also spoke out about her mother, commending how strong she remained even though her live had been "savaged" by people she didn't invite in it.

Elizabeth will open up to Matt Lauer. Her book, Resilience is also coming out soon. This book will likely be a big hit because it will tell how she coped with the infidelity of her husband, which is something that many people want to know more about.
