Mindy McCready Says Roger Clemens Affair Was No Secret

"I've lived recklessly. I've made a lot of mistakes."

Mindy McCready is owning up to her faults. The country singer, recently released from her third stint in jail, is sharing her regret over drug addiction, legal woes and her alleged affair with married baseball star Roger Clemens.

"Carrying on a relationship with him is not something I'm proud of," the 32-year-old McCready told the syndicated TV show 'Inside Edition,' explaining that she and Clemens were careless about being seen together. "We never had a meeting in secret. We went on vacations together. We went to Palm Springs. We went to Las Vegas, New York City."

Clemens continues to deny an affair, insisting the relationship was platonic. McCready, who says she met Clemens when she just 16 years old, admits they started off as friends but developed a sexual relationship several years later. She says the demise of their romance came when she realized the famed pitcher would never marry her.



"I wanted him to do right by me," she says, "and when he wouldn't, I broke it off."

McCready is now trying to do right by Clemens' wife, Debbie, saying she has "nothing but remorse and nothing but sympathy for what she (Debbie) had to go through with this situation," adding, "She has my utmost apology."

The news of the alleged affair broke just as McCready was battling several criminal charges, drug addiction, depression and a custody battle over her then 2-year-old son, Zander.

"There aren't words to describe how painful it's been," she says. "So painful, I haven't wanted to live."

But McCready remains hopeful for her future, as she tries to make a comeback, both professionally and personally.

"Redemption is out there for everybody to get," she says. "Just watch me. I'm gonna show you how to do it."

Mindy's a trainwreck. Even if she does make a comeback, nobody will take her seriously after all that has happened, and what will most likely happen. She's just like Britney; everyone thinks she is recovered and will resume her regularly scheduled life and career, but the truth is, in both Britney's and Mindy's cases, issues like theirs don't just go away overnight.

look, they were adults so then they both need to own
what went down...

People are not perfect and marriages aren't either

But people do cheat maybe the fact they aught to be honest and go from there... Guys do expect women
to forgive them ... while if a man has a women cheat on them there is a double standard so don't know

Marriage is work and a lot of faith and trust and sometimes even when you've done what your suppose to it doesn't work ... and you have to say time to
get out but having an affair well women might to end a marriage or because they don't feel valued.
men do it cause they get board or feel traped... or need something on the side...

The simple fact is, if people would just be honest with each other, and not be deliberately hurtful, be a lot less hurt people out there, feeling foolish and vidictive.

If there's an ounce of truth to her claims of being lovers, then what she is doing is sick and hurtful to an innocent party. If it's a lie, then she's just...sick.

C'mon woman, give it a break! All you did was allow a male to shove a blood engorged part of his anatomy into a blood engorged space in your anatomy, and repeat 'til, well I suppose even you know whats next. I don't suppose theres a calculator made that could count the times this has been done. GIVE IT A REST!!!. Ever notice that the human animal is the only one that BREEDS down? Wonder why?

marilonseay - TURN OFF YOUR CAPS, dingdong. Secondly, try a spellcheck and a punctuation check. Great little items to have.

Roger Clemens is a legend in his own mind and Mindy McReady should change her name to Mindy McSkanky. She looks like she has all the sense that God gave a houseplant. Not that Clemens is much better, but at least he doesn't wear cheap looking outfits, like McSkanky.

Sorry, I have never had an affair, and I have been married to one woman one time for the past 38 years. If I was going to have an affair, I would feel bad "before" or "during" the affair, but if not, then I would not feel bad. Hey, if I was inclined to do so, that would just be a piece of A$$. Sorry, story here....sounds like an advertisement.

I think this story is nothing but a tall story she invented! Show me the pictures Miss Lady, that is when I might think about it! If this is not true,look what she has done in this man home with his wife, and if it's true,all the time that has past in this so called relationship should have stayed hidden. This women has something to prove no matter who she hurt!!
