Rielle Hunter wants John Edwards to pay $17,910 a month in child support for her daughter, Frances Quinn Hunter, according to the National Enquirer. Private financial negotiations between Hunter and Edwards reportedly broke down last week when her demands for the 22-month-old child were more than the former senator and presidential candidate was willing to pay.
Edwards has never publicly acknowledged that he is the girl's father, but did admit to an affair with Hunter at a time when his wife, Elizabeth, was battling cancer.
Now, legal documents obtained by Radaronline.com appear to show communication between Hunter and her attorney, Frank Louis, preparing to sue Edwards for $214,920 in annual child support.
The documents indicate Hunter is not employed -- and do not factor in any income from her -- but say she spends $2,100 a month on babysitting and will pay $1,500 a month for private preschool.
It is unclear how Hunter now affords her $11,560 in monthly expenses, but it has been speculated that she is living off a temporary financial agreement with Edwards. The documents also prompt questions as to why Hunter would need a full-time nanny if her child is in preschool and she does not work.
Hunter's other monthly expenses for herself and daughter – whom the lawyer refers to as "Quinn" -- seem extremely high: $600 for clothes, $800 for vacations, $800 on restaurants and $500 for entertainment. What kind of vacations the mother and daughter take that would cost $9,600 a year is not explained.
One also questions how one woman and a toddler can eat at restaurants to the tune of $800 a month, especially in light of the $1,000 a month they spend on groceries at home.

I don’t get it. She looks like she was in an axe fight and didn’t have an axe. sd
Awfully high maintenance for a trailer trash slut, and an ugly one at that. At least Tiger's babes were classic sluts & generally very good looking!!! LOL!!!
On the other hand, it is great to see John Edwards now on the receiving end of financial extortion, after raking in millions as an ambulance chaser and destroying the lives of many doctors in the process. In fact, I wish that Riella Hunter would increase the monthly amount by 10X, just to see the Breck girl Edwards sweating bullets. Or whatever he sweats when he gets nervous!!!
Hey, John, your lover needs a neck job. Better shell out!
True. I am sick of hearing about these creeps and their sluts trying to exhort money from them on the backs of children or they were wronged.
It’s about money and money only.
Right. He plays, he pays, PERIOD. No sympathy for the RAT
B@$TARD.
“I think they are both despicable human beings - which again encourages me to support a National Health System requiring IQ and STD tests before awarding government approved copulation and conception permits.”
- Then again..maybe IQ isn’t all that revealing when it comes to how morals play out in the real world..

The story should say 18K per month. That is a FAR more accurate way to round it.
It’s actually TAX FREE defacto alimony!! You don’t claim Child Support on your taxes; daddykins pays for the taxes up front on it!!
I’m no fan of Mr. Hair either, but CS laws are outrageous here and in Canada. We have debtor’s prisons for CS and most of the time it goes to implants for the exs and not for the sake of the children. My husband’s children are sent in undersized rags for their visitation by ex-wife; she’s a child protective worker and makes much more than my husband does; hubby pays 50% to her directly via CSEU of his NET income in CS. Nice work if you can get it!
