Two married Florida state senators admit to having extramarital affair

Two Florida state senators admitted they were having an affair after a website exposed their relationship.

Sen. Anitere Flores (R-Miami) and Sen. Oscar Braynon (D-Miami Gardens), both of whom are married, confessed before the legislative session began Tuesday they had cheated on their spouses.

“We do not want gossip and rumors to distract from the important business of the people,” the senators said in a joint statement to the Sun-Sentinel.
“That's why we are issuing this brief statement to acknowledge that our longtime friendship evolved to a level that we deeply regret,“We have sought the forgiveness of our families, and also seek the forgiveness of our constituents and God.”
