Ken Paxton’s Wife Files For Divorce in Middle of His US Senate Run in Texas
Ken Paxton’s wife, Angela Paxton, announced on Thursday that after 38 years of marriage, she filed for divorce.
Paxton, the current Attorney General of Texas, recently announced a bid for US Senate.
“Today, after 38 years of marriage, I filed for divorce on biblical grounds,” Angela Paxton, a Texas state Senator said on X.
“I believe marriage is a sacred covenant and I have earnestly pursued reconciliation. But in light of recent discoveries, I do not believe that it honors God or is loving to myself, my children, or Ken to remain in the marriage,” she said.
“I move forward with complete confidence that God is always working everything together for the good of those who love Him and who are called according to His purpose,” she added.

Ken Paxton posted his own statement later Thursday.
“After facing the pressures of countless political attacks and public scrutiny, Angela and I have decided to start a new chapter in our lives,” Ken Paxton said.
“I could not be any more proud or grateful for the incredible family that God has blessed us with, and I remain committed to supporting our amazing children and grandchildren. I ask for your prayers and privacy at this time,” Paxton said.

In 2023, the RINOs and Democrats in the Texas House voted to impeach highly popular Attorney General Ken Paxton.
RINO Republicans held a secret investigation and did not allow Ken Paxton to present evidence. They also made Paxton’s extramarital affair the focus of their impeachment trial.
Ken Paxton addressed the affair he had with a woman named Laura Olson back in 2018 and asked for forgiveness.
Attorney General Ken Paxton is the one man who has stood up against the Democrat-Marxist onslaught in the great state of Texas. Democrats and Secret Sleeper Republicans hate him for this.
In December 2020, Ken Paxton formed a coalition of states to sue battleground states Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, for their unconstitutional changes to the 2020 election laws. The US Supreme Court threw out the case despite its obvious merit later that month. Paxton later told The Gateway Pundit that he still believes the Supreme Court had a constitutional obligation to hear the case which they ignored.
While serving as Attorney General in Texas Ken Paxton defended 12 lawsuits related to election laws. Democrats hate him for this. They want to flip Texas with their proven methods used in other swing states – mail-in voting, no ID check, no signature check, bloated voter rolls.
