Six months after news of affair, Paula Broadwell apologizes

Six months after news broke of her affair with retired Gen. David Petraeus, Paula Broadwell said she's sorry.

"I have remorse for the harm, sadness that this has caused in my family and other families and for causes that we belong to," she said.

With her life under scrutiny, she credits faith and friends, but mostly the strength of her husband, for seeing her through.

"I'm blessed with family, community. That's been a great part of my rehabilitation and wonderful organizations that realize that even if you've made mistakes you can pick up dust off and move on," Broadwell said.

Broadwell spends much of her time now, as she did before, supporting veterans and wounded warriors, through events like this Old Bags Luncheon benefiting Patriot Charities and other organizations like Purple Heart Homes and Charlotte Home Build.

She cheated on her husband, lied and compromised national security. Not interested in her lies.
