LONDON (AP) — Iceland’s president on Sunday accepted the resignation of the North Atlantic island nation’s children’s minister, who quit the government over a relationship she had with a teenager more than three decades ago.
Ásthildur Lóa Thórsdóttir stepped down after national broadcaster RUV revealed last week that she had a child 35 years ago when she was 23 and the baby’s father was 16. RUV said the relationship began after the pair met at a church youth group when the teen was 15.
