Weiner back in
Can you believe it? Huma lets Anthony shack up
Just when you thought Huma Abedin had finally had enough, she has invited her admitted sexoffender hubby back home again, The Post has learned.
Anthony Weiner’s long-suffering wife filed for divorce earlier this month, the same day the disgraced ex-congressman pleaded guilty to sexting with a 15-year-old girl.
But Abedin has since renewed the lease on their pricey Union Square duplex and invited back home the man who has repeatedly heaped humiliation upon her, sources told The Post.
The luxury three-bedroom, 1,500-square-foot pad at 1 Irving Place features an “expansive, panoramic view of Union Square Park and the Midtown skyline,” according to a Corcoran listing.
The sext-crazed pol, who had been sleeping on his mother’s couch in Park Slope, was to move out Tuesday, a source said.
“He was supposed to move,” a source at the Irving Place building said. “But they just signed for another year.”
Another source said, “She still hasn’t served him with the divorce papers.”
Weiner, who will have to register as a sex offender as part of a deal with the Manhattan US Attorney’s Office, was spotted Tuesday at about 9 a.m. strolling out of Abedin’s building with their 5-year-old son.
A pal of the couple said that Weiner has been the primary caretaker for the boy, especially while Abedin worked on Hillary Clinton’s failed presidential bid.
“Huma is worried about her son,” the pal said. “That’s her priority, and Anthony plays a very strong role in raising him.”
It’s unclear whether Abedin, 41, is listed on the $11,900-a-month lease alone or with Weiner, who is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 8.
Brokers could not discuss the leasing arrangement because they signed a strict nondisclosure agreement. “We are really worried about this one,” a broker said. “This is a very sensitive rental.”
But Weiner, 52, who has pleaded guilty to one count of transferring obscene material to a minor, may not be around much after Labor Day. He faces 21 to 27 months behind bars for carrying on the lurid exchange with the North Carolina teenager.
“I have a sickness but I do not have an excuse,” he told federal Judge Loretta Preska between sobs on May 19. “I knew that was morally wrong.” Abedin was not in the courtroom.
Weiner’s creepy behavior may have even played a role in the presidential election. The FBI opened an inquiry into his conduct in September and seized his laptop and phones, leading the feds to realize some of Clinton’s e-mails were on his computer. As a result, then-FBI Director James Comey told Congress he would reopen an investigation into Clinton’s private e-mail server just 11 days before the election.
Weiner has long been plagued by a weakness for sexually charged cyber correspondence. The Post reported in August 2016 that he was still sexting women, prompting his wife to announce their separation.
He had texted a crotch shot to a West Coast mom that included his then-3-year-old in bed next to him.
The Weiner sexting scandal began in 2011, when the then-up-andcoming congressman accidentally tweeted a picture of his bulging member out to the public and then claimed his account had been hacked. Eventually, he came clean and resigned from office.
He tried to revive his political career in 2013, running for New York mayor. But the campaign was quickly derailed when 22-year-old Sydney Leathers came forward with proof of their online relationship. Revelations of other sexting partners soon followed.
Abedin and Weiner didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
