Huma Abedin épouse de Weiner, mais surtout l'ombre d'Hillary Clinton
Mme Adedin se retrouve sous les réflecteurs bien malgré elle en raison des gestes bêtes posés par son époux (faut-il rappeler les nombreuses photo envoyées à d'autres femme sur tweeter?).
Plusieurs articles nous permettent de constater qu'elle a un c.v. très impressionnant. Son patron actuel est Hillary Clinton. On peut imaginer que la Secrétaire d'État américaine a quelques conseils en réserve pour Mme Adedin.
"Known as "Hillary Clinton's secret weapon," Abedin began working for the secretary of state as an intern in 1996, before the first lady herself became a focus of attention as a bystander in the Clinton-Lewinsky sex scandal.
Since then, the Michigan-born but Saudi Arabia-raised Abedin has ascended the ranks, with positions as a personal aide and advisor to then Senator Clinton as well as “traveling chief of staff” during her presidential campaign. She currently serves as a deputy chief of staff to Sec. Clinton. She was named this past fall to Time magazine's "40 Under 40" list of New Civic Leaders, where the profile referred to her as Hillary Clinton's "shadow."
Abedin, who speaks Arabic fluently (her father, who passed away in 1993, was of Indian descent and her mother, a professor in Saudi Arabia, is from Pakistan), is a practicing Muslim. Her husband, who's Jewish, has been known to fast with her during Ramadan.
She's also known for her impeccable style, favoring designers like Marc Jacobs and Prada. Oscar de la Renta, a friend, designed her dress for her wedding to Rep. Weiner last summer.
In a 2007 New York Observer profile (it should be noted that Abedin declined to be interviewed for it) then Hillary Clinton press secretary Philippe Reines called Abedin "one in a million," but conceded "that would mean there are 5,999 others in the world just like her, and there simply aren’t.""
