She denied it in a deposition.
That is how Karrasch described her relationship with the governor.
"I think it is pathetic if people think something is going on sexually. Nothing sexual ever went on. We are platonic friends. I am too busy with my children to have an affair with anyone."
"I have never seen him be other than a perfect gentleman." she added. "Not only with me, but with other people. He has been a loyal and faithful husband to his wife."
Gibbons was not accused of being unfaithful when he divorced his first wife, Toy, in 1983.
They divorced after 17 years of marriage. Gibbons balked at paying alimony, but a judge ordered him to pay $600 a month for two years. He also paid child support for their two children, Jennifer and Chris, until they turned 18.
Karrasch said she decided to make her feelings public in part because her children are devastated by the accusations and have been hounded by reporters at school.
She said she hates the limelight and just wants people to leave her family alone.
"My daughter was afraid to go to school because they were outside our door," she said.
"This is extremely painful on our kids. You can take potshots at me all day, but not at my kids."
