On the cover of its June 2, 1987 edition, the celebrity tabloid "National Enquirer" published a photograph of Rice sitting on Hart's lap. The pair were pictured on a dock during a yacht trip to Bimini that Hart, Rice and others took before he announced his campaign for President of the United States. Hart is wearing a T-shirt bearing the words "Monkey Business", the name of the yacht. The photo was published alongside the headline "Gary Hart Asked Me to Marry Him". It was published weeks after Hart suspended his campaign, but has been subsequently collectively confused as the reason for Hart's exit. There are allegations that the photo was a set up by Republican operative Lee Atwater to discredit Hart.
