Toronto Mayor Candidate's Girlfriend Speaks Out

As you may have heard by now, Adam Giambrone, a member of Toronto's city council, dropped out of the mayoral race due to a shocking sex scandal, where he cheated on his live-in girlfriend with a woman 12 years younger than him. Being the youngest city council member ever, at 32, his mistress, a 20 year old university student, read in a newspaper, as a result of an error, that her lover was married. This article lead her to coming clean about their fling. Their whirlwind affair began when Kristen Lucas was just 19, but hit a rough patch when she found out she was not his only partner, and that Adam would tell the press his steady girlfriend would be the one in the papers as his partner; as you can guess, this was horribly embarassing for Kristen. The straw that broke the camel's back was when Sarah McQuarrie, the "official girlfriend" was overheard by Kristen's stepmother as saying that Kristen was crazy, based on a few derogatory Facebook messages. So Kristen came to the press, and told them about their relationship, which was met with Adam claiming they had an "inappropriate" relationship, but that it wasn't sexual, even though she has said they had sex several times in his office. When Adam came clean about her, he also admitted to affairs with other women outsid Kristen and Sarah. Now, Kristen's family is worried about her wellbeing, while Adam has dropped out of his race to be mayor.

After reading this article, I have quite a strong perception, which would be the only one at fault here is Adam Giambrone. Kristen Lucas was not "the mistress" in her own eyes, as she thought she was the only one. People also forget the big age difference, which leads to their being a person in the relationship with too much power, which isn't fair or healthy. I do have to wonder, though, what kind of person this Sarah McQuarrie is, as from what I've read, she sounds quite wretched, if you ask me. Overall, I think this is less about one mistress, and more so about a promiscuous man who is now being punished for cheating on his girlfriend, and more importantly, setting a bad example as an influential member of the community. Kristen Lucas' interview can be found here , and I hope you enjoyed this article.
