Vito Fossella's Secret Love Child

Republican representative Vito Fossella of Staten Island, announced that he had an extramarital affair with Laura Fay, and that the two of them have a 3-year-old love child.

In a statement Thursday, Fossella unleashed the details of his affair with Fay, a former Air Force Lieutenant colonel. This all comes after his May 1 arrest in Alexandria, Virginia, for drunken driving.

The 43-year-old is currently the only Republican representative from New York City, and if Fossella's personal life keeps going south, New York, will soon be represented solely by democrats.

Fossella decided to release information about his affair, after The Daily News reported that he had called Fay for help after his May 1 arrest, and had also told officers he was on his way to Fay's home to visit a sick daughter. Afterwards, rumors about his relationship with the woman have risen.

Although there is speculation over an end to the representative's decade long career in the House, Fossella has yet to address his political future, or whether he will seek re-election this fall.
