Nashville’s First Female Mayor Admits to Extramarital Affair. What You Need to Know.

Nashville Mayor Megan Barry has apologized for having an affair with a police officer who served as the head of her security detail.

Barry, elected as Nashville’s first female mayor in 2015, admitted to beginning a relationship with Sgt. Robert Forrest Jr. not long after being elected. Forrest had announced his upcoming retirement on Jan. 17 and officially retired from the police force just hours before Barry disclosed the affair to the media on Wednesday.

“Today I acknowledged publicly that I have engaged in an extramarital affair with the former head of my security detail,” Barry wrote in a statement. “I accept full responsibility for the pain I have caused my family and his. I am so sorry to my husband Bruce, who has stood by me in my darkest moments and remains committed to our marriage, just as I am committed to repairing the damage I have done.” – Source
