In this episode of The How to Cheat Podcast, I dive into the legendary affair of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lucy Mercer Rutherfurd—how it started, how he got caught, and how his marriage with Eleanor evolved into something…different.
Episode Highlights:
- How Lucy Mercer went from Eleanor’s secretary to FDR’s lover
- The love letters that nearly ended FDR’s marriage (and why you should never keep evidence)
- How FDR’s daughter helped cover up his later rendezvous
- Eleanor’s own “friendships” (was she better at cheating than him?)
- Why some marriages work better as partnerships than romances
FDR and Eleanor had a marriage by agreement—publicly together, privately independent. Could more of us handle that setup? Let’s talk about it.
