According to the Post, Weiner had been texting the woman from late January 2015 up until earlier this month.

Mr Weiner quit Congress in 2011 after it was discovered that he was sending women sexually explicit messages. However, Weiner’s behavior has not almost been as lucrative of a career choice for the former congressman.
Abedin, who as vice chair of Clinton’s campaign is destined for big things if the Democrat is elected president, stayed with Weiner after a sexting scandal led him to resign from Congress in 2011 and after a new outbreak of online misbehavior wrecked his bid for NY mayor in 2013.
Republican nominee Donald Trump was quick Monday to insult Anthony Weiner, who is set to split with his wife, Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, after the former NY representative was caught up in yet another sexting scandal.
In the documentary, Mr Weiner allowed the camera crew extraordinary access even after the new scandal broke.
MRCTV attempted to contact Leathers regarding these allegation but has not received a response at this time.
“After long and painful consideration and work on my marriage, I have made the decision to separate from my husband”, the statement reads.
The Post did not say how it had obtained the photographs and messages.
The Republican presidential nominee weighed in on the incident on Monday, saying Abedin made a “wise decision”, but said Weiner’s proximity to Clinton could possibly have compromised classified information. She has also bashed President Barack Obama and former President Bill Clinton on her Twitter account.
In this photo taken then-New York Rep. Anthony Weiner and his wife, Huma Abedin, an aide to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, are pictured after a ceremonial swearing in of the 112th Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington.
Weiner was with her and Jordan this weekend in the Hamptons, but left Monday morning. “Who knows what he learned and who he told?”
The clearest sign of this: Abedin had recently not been wearing a wedding ring, a fact that did not go unnoticed by people inside and around the Clinton campaign. That same year, Abedin gave birth to the couple’s son and reportedly sought advice from Clinton. “I know Anthony Weiner well, and she will be far better off without him”, he said in a statement. Weiner lost the Democratic primary.
Since his mayoral bid, Weiner has remained in the public eye, commenting on politics on a local cable news show.
He recently refused to answer when asked whether he was still sexting, telling The New York Times Magazine in an interview published August 16: “I’m not going to go down the path of talking about any of that”.

“Impulsivity is something that a lot of people really struggle with”, said Jeannette Stern, a NY therapist.
