The wife of former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn said she is shutting down her popular French blog in the wake of her husband's criminal charges.
Anne Sinclair, who has been writing about life in the United States on her blog, "Two or Three Things Seen in America" since 2008, wrote Monday: "You understand the circumstances which force me to temporarily suspend this blog."
In her message to her blog readers, Sinclair said, "You have sent me very many messages. I cannot answer each one but know that they touched and helped me."
She closed by saying, "See you soon."
Strauss-Kahn, who is awaiting a trial on sexual assault charges, was released on bail from the Rikers Island jail Friday.
He is accused of trying to rape a maid this month in his suite at the Sofitel hotel in New York. He will stay with his wife, Anne Sinclair.
