The mayor of Nashville apologized Wednesday for having an affair with the head of her security detail, a police officer.

Megan Barry, 54, a Democrat who was elected mayor of Tennessee’s bustling capital in 2015, disclosed the affair to the media.

The officer was identified as Sgt. Robert Forrest Jr. of the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department. Their affair began in mid-2016, the newspaper reported.

According to the newspaper, Forrest accompanied Barry on trips to Paris, Athens, Washington, New York, Denver, Oakland and other cities in the past year.

Forrest racked up around $33,000 in expenses for the trips and more than $50,000 in overtime in 2017 on top of an $84,500 salary, the Tennessean reported.

Nine of the trips were only Barry and Forrest, including a Greece trip in September, according to the newspaper.

How did they figure that overtime anyway? Piece work?
