In an interview with an ABC affiliate in New Orleans, Gennifer Flowers revealed that former President Bill Clinton offered to visit her in 2005.

Flowers, of course, revealed during Clinton’s first campaign that she had an affair with him while he was the governor of Arkansas.

“I picked up the phone and it was him,” Flowers said, “He wanted to come by my house and talk to me.”

“I said, ‘No you can’t come over here,’” she continued. “He said, ‘I’ll put on a hoodie and I’ll jog up there.’ … And I said, ‘No, I want you to leave me alone.’ And that was that.”

“How did they find you?” asked the TV host.

“Are you kidding me?” Flowers laughed. “They know. It’s easy for the President of the United States to find out things like that. I mean he has all those resources.”

Erik Ortiz of the New York Daily News reports that President Clinton’s office “didn’t immediately comment” on the claim.
