COLUMBIA, S.C. — The wife of South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford moved out of the governor’s residence with their four sons Friday, a little more than a month after he admitted to a yearlong affair with an Argentine woman.
First lady Jenny Sanford and several other women moved bags, a suitcase and armloads of suits and dresses from the governor’s mansion in Columbia before departing in sport utility vehicles. Three of the four boys were present, carrying tote and duffel bags.
Jenny Sanford said she was heading to the family home on Sullivans Island, 120 miles southeast, for the upcoming school year. “From there, we will work to continue the process of healing our family,” she said.
