Linda Tripp compared Monica Lewinsky to a child during a 2017 Daily Mail interview. She recalled, “Monica looked like a young woman. She was lovely. She’s smart and witty. But she was a child in every sense.” Tripp even claimed, “She was obsessed with Bill Clinton. And what she was reading as a romance was something completely different to him. I knew how he operated, this was nothing new to me.” In that same interview, Tripp alleged that Lewinsky called Clinton’s secretary, Betty Currie, “20 times a day.”
Tripp shared, “Monica was so obsessed that there was absolutely no possibility of changing that. She believed that they would grow old together.” Tripp also confessed, “At first I found her a little on the bimbo side but I came to realize that none of that is true. She is a smart, witty, caring, giving person who happened to be in the throes of an enormous obsession.”
Despite initial reservations, Tripp claimed that she liked Lewinsky, only snitching to protect her. Tripp told the Daily Mail, “I became fond of her and it pained me to do what I did. But I knew I had to do it.” Ultimately, she claimed, “I desperately wanted there to be some accountability for what he was doing.” She said, “‘With Monica, it just put me over the edge. The kind of abuse of a kid was just so unconscionable. It was horrible, even for him.”
