Huma Abedin, Hillary Clinton's top aide, is 'working hard' to repair the relationship with her chronically sexting husband Anthony Weiner, according to a report on Saturday.

The fact that Abedin is willing to forgive Weiner is all the more remarkable given the role he played in arguably costing Huma's boss, Hillary Clinton, the presidency.

In September, DailyMail.com revealed that Weiner was engaged in a sexting relationship with a 15-year-old girl.

That revelation triggered a federal investigation, during which agents seized Weiner's laptop.

That laptop contained emails linked to Clinton, and those emails prompted FBI Director James Comey to announce that he had re-opened the investigation into Clinton's private email servers just days before the election.

Though the investigation into Clinton was later closed, pollsters believe that Comey's announcement helped sway enough undecided voters to cost Hillary the presidency.

Abedin, 40, filed for divorce from Weiner, 52, last year after the former New York Congressman and failed mayoral candidate was discovered to have exchanged explicit text messages and photos with a 40-year-old woman – with one of the texts showing a photo of him aroused as his toddler son was lying down next to him.

Now it appears that Abedin is ready to forgive her bad boy husband, the New York Post reported.

'Huma has been working hard on her relationship with Anthony,' the Post quotes a source close to her family.

'He has been spending 80 to 90 percent of his time at the [Manhattan apartment] they share,' the source said.

'If there is a disagreement, he goes to his mother's apartment in Brooklyn.'

'Both [his and her] families are hoping they will reconcile.'

The Post cited another source close to Hillary Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, who corroborated the report.

The source said that the initial separation was 'more for optics for the campaign and [under] pressure from Hillary's camp.'

Given the number of times that Weiner has gotten into trouble over online relationships with women, his wife's willingness to forgive may strike some as astounding.

Abedin reportedly is willing to cut her husband some slack given that she 'takes it into consideration that there's been no affair, or physical contact that anybody is aware of.'

'He never met [the women],' a family friend told the Post.

'A lot of [their] friends believe this is an illness, that he is sick.'

Weiner (seen on the left in New York as he is aided by crutches) is said to be spending a great deal of time at home with his wife, even though they are rarely spotted together. Abedin was seen recently hobnobbing with celebs in Los Angeles, including musician David Foster (right)

Abedin was seen recently during a visit to Disneyland with a friend, actor Tony Goldwyn of the hit TV show Scandal.

Photographs of Goldwyn spending quality time with Abedin and her son, Jordan Zain, ignited speculation of a romance, but those rumors were quickly shot down by Goldwyn's wife who insists that Huma is a close family friend.

The family friend quoted in the Post said that Abedin has no interest in seeing other men.

Instead, she is focused on saving her marriage.

'They clearly have rebuilt a life together,' the friend said of Abedin and Weiner. 'How romantic it is, I can't tell you.'

Last September, DailyMail.com revealed that Weiner was sending text message to a 15-year-old girl - like the one above

Weiner carried on a months-long online sexual relationship with the teen during which she claimed he asked her to dress up in 'school-girl' outfits for him on a video messaging application and pressed her to engage in 'rape fantasies'

In August, the New York Post reported on sexual chats between Weiner and a 40-year-old woman, during which the former congressman sent her provocative shirtless photos of him while his four-year-old son was curled up next to him in bed

Weiner's history of indiscretion dates to 2011, when he grudgingly resigned from his position in the US House of Representatives after accidentally tweeting a nude photo of himself that he meant to send to another woman.

At the time, Weiner and Abedin had been married for less than a year.

Then, as he was running for New York City mayor in 2013, more sexually explicit photos were leaked, which Weiner sent to a 22-year-old Indiana woman named Sydney Leathers.

That scandal effectively brought his comeback campaign to a stop.

The most recent scandal came happened this past August, when it was revealed that Weiner continued to sext other women.

One of the photos obtained by the New York Post shows Weiner lying next to his son in one photo sent to another woman.

That was the straw that broke the camel's back for Abedin, who immediately announced her separation from Weiner in the final months of Clinton's campaign.

A few weeks later, DailyMail.com revealed that Weiner was sending sexually charged texts to an underage girl.

DailyMail.com broke the story in September: Weiner carried on a months-long online sexual relationship with the teen during which she claimed he asked her to dress up in 'school-girl' outfits for him on a video messaging application and pressed her to engage in 'rape fantasies'.

The information prompted an FBI investigation, during which computers were seized and the discovery of emails led to the re-opening of an investigation into then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton just days before the election.

Investigators found thousands of emails related to the FBI's probe into Clinton's private email server while looking into Weiner's laptop.

Clinton and her husband Bill have since blamed FBI director James Comey's decision to launch the probe, just before the election, as one of the reasons she lost.

Weiner kept a low profile following the shocking revelations in October.

In October, he sought treatment at an all-male sex rehabilitation center in Tennessee.

He checked himself into The Ranch, a 2,000-acre recovery facility near Nashville, Tennessee, in early October, where he was seen horseback riding.

Stays at the facility cost up to $30,000 a month.

The New York Post previously reported that he cut short his rehabilitation for sex addiction at the ranch because he 'ran out of money'.

Abedin and Jordan spend the holiday season in the Hamptons, with her mother Saleha Mahmood Abedin, and sister Heba Abedin.

During the same time period, Weiner was seen wandering Manhattan alone.

Meanwhile, Abedin appears to have rebuilt her relationship with Clinton following the scandal.
