News report accuses Texas AG Ken Paxton of affair with married ‘Christian influencer’
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a key Trump ally now running for U.S. Senate, is accused of having an affair with a “Christian influencer” he met last year, according to a report from a UK-baed media outlet.
The Daily Mail reported Friday that Paxton had been “caught in a shocking sex scandal” involving Tracy Duhon, a 57-year-old author and mother of seven. She’s the former wife of a Louisiana-based businessman who owns the Premier Automotive dealership group.
Christian influenver Tracy Duhon, the mother of seven, had an extramarital affair with Texas Attorney Geeral Ken Paxton
Paxton, 62, met Duhon at the 2024 Kentucky Derby when she was still married, and the pair stayed at the home of a mutual friend during the visit, according to the Daily Mail, which cited “multiple” unnamed sources allegedly familiar with the incident.
Citing those same sources, the Daily Mail reported that Paxton and Duhon often took trips together without their spouses’ knowledge, including jaunts overseas.
Two months after the Kentucky Derby, Duhon filed for divorce from her husband, according to the report.
Paxton’s wife, Angela, a Republican state senator, filed for a divorce of her own in early July, stating in a tweet that she sought the breakup of their 38-year marriage on “biblical grounds.”
“I believe marriage is a sacred covenant and I have earnestly pursued reconciliation,” Angela Paxton wrote. “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.”
The Daily Mail report is only the latest political baggage for Paxton as he takes on incumbent U.S. Sen. John Cornyn in next year’s GOP primary.
The Texas House voted in 2023 to impeach Paxton over allegations of bribery and abuse of office, however the state Senate ultimately decided not to convict. Among the complaints of misconduct were accusations that Paxton had an extramarital affair with a woman he later recommended for a job with a key political donor.

CA shouldn't be the only state with slime-balls in the state house.
