Janice- Here's the story from this week's Time: In the summer of 1995, sources have told TIME, Willey was in the midst of a brief relationship with a British-born soccer coach whom she made the target of a bizarre ruse almost straight out of an Aaron Spelling production. In an interview with the FBI, Willey's former confidant Julie Steele has claimed that the onetime socialite told her lover, Shaun Docking, she was pregnant with his twins--even though Willey had told Steele she was not pregnant. Willey's motive? She wanted to get back at him for Fourth of July plans gone awry, Steele told the FBI. The plot grew more serpentine. Shortly after her announcement, Willey told Docking, who at 30 was 18 years her junior, that she would have an abortion. Then, on the morning of the "scheduled" procedure, she informed him she had changed her mind. Not long after, Willey had Steele call Docking and tell him she had suffered a miscarriage. According to two sources in close contact with her at the time, Willey never confessed to Docking that the pregnancy had been invented. Willey's lawyer did not return TIME's calls last week. I think Julie Steele has been discredited with changing stories concerning Willey's Clinton explanation at this point. There is also an article in Time discussing Nathan Landow's relationship with Willey.

All I can say is, the plot thickens!! Why am I surprised? But if Steele is the source of the phony-pregnancy-with-twins story, it is pretty hard to know whether it is believable. How old is Willey, anyway? Was she 51 in 1993, or is she 51 now? I find it a little hard to imagine even a 49-year-old woman concocting a pregnancy ruse. I think there are are almost no natural pregnancies at 49, isn't that correct? As far as seeking legal redress AT THE TIME, I think Duncan or whoever just posted about this issue is accurate on that one. Willey had intended to take this story to the grave with her, as she said on 60 Minutes. This is quite plausible, since it is only because Linda Tripp said something about it publicly that it attracted the attention of Paula Jones' legal team, and they subpoenaed her, I believe.
