Hillary Clinton, 74, former US Secretary of State and Democratic presidential candidate, has explained for the first time why she prefers to wear pantsuits in public. Clinton told CBS in an interview that “salacious photos” of her with her skirt pulled up during a trip to Brazil in 1995 were the reason. The images were later used by a Brazilian company in a lingerie advertisement, against which the US embassy officially protested. As a result, Clinton decided never to wear skirts in public again.

I say that after I can’t say it in a marriage.” Berben has been with stuntman Heiko Kiesow since 2007. A marriage was not considered.

In the end, I want to say: Be smarter than I was.” He also advises against drug use.
