The Queen of Talk has landed the first television interview with the former mistress of one-time presidential hopeful John Edwards.

According to The National Enquirer, Rielle Hunter and Oprah will sit down for a chat that will air on The Oprah Winfrey Show during next month’s ratings driven May sweeps. Rielle has been in chats to spill on her affair with the long-married Southern senator with ABC’s Barbara Walters and Diane Sawyer, but she thought Oprah was “more spiritual and would get her,” according to a tipster.

“Rielle is super excited to have Oprah come into her home. She’s excited about giving her account of how she met John, how the affair began and what’s in store for her future. Rielle also wants to clear the air about the GQ photos – she’s basically doing it to get the truth out and tell her side of the story.”

Ironically, Hunter is heading to the same woman who provided a shoulder to Edwards’ wife. Just last May Oprah visited the Edwards’ North Carolina home and interviewed the cancer-stricken Elizabeth Edwards about her best-selling book, the couple’s troubled marriage, and her husband’s affair with Hunter — which ended with the arrival of a lovechild.
