9. Lyndon B. Johnson and His Decades-Long Affairs

Yes, that’s right. President Johnson is said to have had at least two extramarital affairs that lasted multiple decades. Beginning in 1937, Johnson and Alice Glass, the wife of a newspaper businessman, began a 30-year relationship that only ended due to her antiwar sentiments at the height of the Vietnam War. Additionally, a woman named Madeline Brown, claims to have been romantically involved with Johnson for 20 years, and that he was the father of her son. Johnson is quoted as once saying, “I have had more women by accident than he [President John F. Kennedy] has had on purpose.”
