In an article for the Vanity Fair magazine, the 44-year-old wrote that the #MeToo movement has made her rethink whether she could consent to the relationship. Lewinsky was 22 when she became involved with the then president, who was 27 years her senior. News of their relationship dominated the US news agenda in the late 1990s, after Clinton initially denied it before admitting to "inappropriate intimate physical contact" with the former White House intern. “Now, at 44, I’m beginning … to consider the implications of the power differentials that were so vast between a president and a White House intern,” Lewinsky said in the article. Lewinsky says she had "limited understanding of the consequences" at the time, and regrets the affair daily.
