Hillary Clinton said in a new clip from her new series 'Gutsy' that her husband would have never told her about his affair with his intern if the couple were 'not in the public eye.'
The former secretary of state even appeared to make excuses for her husband to keep the affair a secret, claiming sometimes it was 'crueler' to come clean.
'You have said the gutsiest thing you have ever done is deciding to stay in your marriage. If you were not in the public eye, do you think he would have told you?' the 'Gutsy' host Rev. Whittney Ijanaten, a chaplain at UCLA Health who officiates LGBTQ marriages, asked Clinton.
'Oh no,' the former first lady said immediately. 'No because he was so embarrassed, and, you know, really ashamed about it.'

'I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky,' Clinton claimed in a televised speech in 1998.
