A former intern claims she also had a secret fling with David Letterman.

"I was madly in love with him at the time," Holly Hester told TMZ.com. "I would have married him. He was hilarious."

The NYU alum told TMZ that the relationship started in the early '90s when Letterman, now 62, called and asked her on a date to the movies. It ended after a year because of their age difference, she said. A rep for Letterman has not commented on the report.
