SEX SCANDALS
- Susie holder - wife's best friend since childhood
- Carrie Fulton Philips - 15 year affair
- Augusta Cole - impregnated then forced to have abortion
- Rosa Hoyle - gave birth to illegitimate son
- Grace Cross - Warren's secretary during senate years
Carrie Fulton Philips blackmailed Warren during his presidential campaign for the 1920 election. Harding sent her to China along with $50,000 in cash so she wouldn't reveal his scandal.
Rosa Hoyle later committed suicide when Harding wouldn't leave his wife for her.
