A regular little lying/cheating strumpet. How ...Islamic[Wash Examiner h/t Weasel Zippers] Rep. Ilhan Omar has filed for divorce amid rumors that she was having an extramarital affair.
Omar filed to end her marriage to Ahmed Hirsi on Friday, TMZ reported Monday. A court filing was later uncovered that confirmed the news.
Omar is accused of having an affair with Tim Mynett, a prominent Democratic political consultant, whose estranged wife alleged in a divorce filing that he had been in a months-long relationship with the Minnesota Democrat.
The allegation of the affair brought added scrutiny to Omar's own marriage. She has faced repeated questions over her marital history after allegations surfaced that she married her brother and committed immigration fraud.
The freshman congresswoman married Hirsi in 2002 during a faith ceremony but did not legally marry until years later. Omar and Hirsi had two children before they separated in 2008. The next year, Omar legally married Ahmed Nur Said Elmi. The two split in 2011, the same year Omar and Hirsi reconciled, but did not legally divorce until 2017. Meanwhile, Omar and Hirsi had a third child in 2012 and legally married in early 2018.
Omar, 37, has denied that she was in a relationship with anyone else. When asked in August whether she had separated from Hirsi or was dating anyone else, Omar said, "No I am not."
"I have no interest in allowing the conversation about my personal life to continue, and so I have no desire to discuss it," she said.
