The Clinton–Lewinsky scandal was a sex scandal involving Bill Clinton,the president of the United States,and Monica Lewinsky,a White House intern. Their sexual relationship began in 1995—when Clinton was 49 years old and Lewinsky was 22 years old—and lasted 18 months,ending in 1997. Clinton ended a televised speech in late January 1998 with the later infamous statement:"I did not have sexual relations with that woman,Ms. Lewinsky." Further investigation led to charges of perjury and to the impeachment of Clinton in 1998 by the U.S. House of Representatives. He was subsequently acquitted on all impeachment charges of perjury and obstruction of justice in a 21-day U.S. Senate trial.
