Bill Clinton & Elizabeth Hurley |
In an interview on Wednesday, the 52-year-old actor denied having ever met the former president and added that he had never given him Ms Hurley’s phone number. ‘I’m not denying I said these things. I don’t remember saying these things’, he told HuffPostLive. ‘They’re the rantings of a guy that it has been well-chronicled had a very severe problem’.
Ms Hurley, 48, had earlier dismissed the allegations, which emerged in a tape released to Radar Online, as ‘ludicrously silly’.
SIZEMORE WITH HIS MANAGER CLARIFYING ISSUES |
‘Totally untrue. In the hands of my lawyers. Yawn’, she wrote to her 450,000 followers on Twitter.
Sizemore has had long-term problems with drugs, including crystal meth, and has served nine months in jail on drugs charges.
He has previously claimed that he and Ms Hurley had had a three-year fling after meeting on the set of 1992 action movie Passenger 57. In the rambling audio clip, he can be heard claiming that he set Mr Clinton up with his former lover in 1998, when she was still dating Hugh Grant.
The affair began, Sizemore alleges, when he went to a White House screening of the Steven Spielberg film Saving Private Ryan, in which he appears.
Sizemore claims Mr Clinton asked him for Miss Hurley’s number, and when he resisted told him: ‘Give it to me. You dumb m***********.
‘I’m the Commander-in-Chief of the United States of America. The buck stops here. Give me the damn number.’
Mr Clinton, now 67, supposedly called Ms Hurley immediately and tried to persuade her it was really him by saying: ‘Elizabeth, this is your Commander-in-Chief.’
He is said to have added: ‘Listen Elizabeth, this is the president! Don’t have any time for this ****. I’m keeping the world from nuclear war all the time.
‘I’m sending a plane to pick you up.’
Later that day Ms Hurley is said to have arrived at the White House and disappeared into a room with Mr Clinton. Sizemore says on the audio recording: ‘Bill turns to me and he goes, “I owe you one”.’
Ms Hurley supposedly stayed at the White House for the next four days.
Sizemore claims he later asked her if Mrs Clinton was an issue and she told him: ‘No, they sleep in different bedrooms.’ He claims that Miss Hurley was told by Mr Clinton in 1998 that he and Mrs Clinton loved each other but had been having separate romantic lives for years.
The relationship supposedly continued for a year until Mr Clinton told Miss Hurley: ‘I don’t do love and I’m beginning to think I might love you’, but nothing came of it.
Sizemore believes the tape was made before he went on Celebrity Rehab in 2010. RadarOnline has previously run footage of him smoking a crack pipe.
The tape was the first of an expected series of attacks on Mr Clinton’s past, in particular his infidelity, in the run-up to his wife Hillary’s expected run for the presidency in 2016.
He admitted to cheating on Mrs Clinton with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky but there are rumours that there were more women in his life.
Miss Hurley dated Hugh Grant from 1987 to 2000, sticking by him even when he was caught with prostitute Divine Brown in 1995.
She has an 11-year-old son with US businessman Steve Bing and was married to textile heir Arun Nayar for four years until 2011. She was engaged to cricketer Shane Warne but they split last year.
