Former MP Mark Field Details Affair with Liz Truss in New Memoir

Mark Field claims his relationship with Liz Truss ended his marriage and critiques her suitability as prime minister in excerpts from his book.

Mark Field, a former Tory MP, reveals an 18-month affair with ex-Prime Minister Liz Truss in his memoir, 'The End of an Era.'
Field alleges that the affair, which began in 2003, led to the breakdown of his marriage while Truss remained with her husband.
He describes Truss as ambitious, energetic, and politically driven but criticizes her leadership abilities and self-awareness as a prime minister.
The affair became public in 2006 but gained renewed attention through Field's book, which is being serialized in the Mail on Sunday.
Truss, who served as prime minister for just 49 days, has not commented on the claims, which also reflect on her political career and legacy.
