Lydie Denier said it was love at first sight when she met Chris Stevens, the former U.S. ambassador killed in the Benghazi attacks.

“I thought, ‘Oh my God. He’s going to be the father of my children,’” the actress and author told me yesterday on Herald Radio.

Lydie has written a book honoring her former fiancé titled, “A Voice for Amb. J. Christopher Stevens.”

Sadly for Lydie, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was nowhere to be found ?the night radical Islamic terrorists attacked the U.S. facility in Libya on Sept. 11, 2012.

Lydie said Stevens sent Clinton multiple requests for security prior to the deadly terror attack at the diplomatic facility in Benghazi, but they fell on deaf ears.

Recently, we may have learned why.

The Associated Press reported this month that Clinton made time for at least 85 meetings at the State Department with big donors to the Clinton Foundation, but didn’t bother to concern herself ?with the security of Americans stationed ?in Libya. Even though the Red Cross ?had been attacked in Benghazi — as well ?as a British envoy — by radical Islamic terrorists.

While leading the State Department, it ?appears that Clinton was too busy wheeling and dealing, enriching herself and her foundation.

Given the dangerous climate unraveling in Benghazi, Lydie said Stevens didn’t want to go to Libya in September 2012. She said he preferred to go in November. But Clinton insisted, according to Lydie. Stevens, she added, was the highest-ranking member of the department available.

And now we know that despite directing a U.S. ambassador to be in Benghazi that day, Clinton didn’t take that 3 a.m. call. When terrorists set the consulate on fire and were launching mortars and RPGs, she was missing in action.

She refused to send military backup before, during or after the 13-hour attack that left Stevens, Sean Smith, Winchester native Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods dead.

I asked Lydie about the possibility of Clinton becoming commander in chief come November. She said, “If Hillary Clinton wasn’t able to take care of four Americans over there, how can she take care of millions of Americans here?”

Good question.
