Kellyanne And George Conway Confirm They’re Divorcing After Having Political Tensions

Kellyanne and George Conway – Call It Quits After 22 Years Together

Kellyanne and George Conway are no longer an item. The couple announced that they would be going their separate ways after being together for over two decades.

In a statement shared on both of their Twitter accounts, the ex-couple made it clear that the split was amicable and that there was no bad blood between them, adding “[we] cherish the many happy years (and four corgis) we’ve shared, and above all else, our four incredible children, who remain the heartbeat of our family and our top priority.”

George Conway, 59, declined to respond to media outlets asking for comments on the news first reported by the New York Post. However, Kellyanne, 56, responded to a Washington Post reporter via text: “be careful with the loose nonfacts and presumptions.”

Kellyanne, a veteran Republican pollstar, rose through the ranks to become one of the most significant faces during the Trump administration. She is known for her frequent TV appearances, including one where she defended a Trump spokesperson for falsely claiming that Trump’s inauguration pulled record-breaking crowds.

Kellyanne and George Conway – The Big Disagreement

In 2001, Kellyanne wed George Conway, a prominent New York lawyer who, in 1994, represented Paula Jones in her sexual harassment lawsuit against President Bill Clinton.

Initially, he supported Trump’s campaign and even mulled over whether he would take a high-ranking job in Trump’s administration. However, in 2018, his perception of Trump’s government soured to the extent he became very vocal about it. This made him gain over a million followers on Twitter, where he wrote several tweets criticizing Trump.

It also led to him getting several assignments, which includes publishing a 3,473-word essay that summer rebutting Trump’s assertion that special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s Russia investigation was “unconstitutional.”

The following year in October, he questioned Trump’s mental capacity and whether he was fit for office in an op-ed he wrote for Atlantic.

“I was angry at Never Trumpers for opposing him and not giving him a chance,” George Conway explained in February 2020. “But their predictions about him turned out to be chillingly correct — indeed, perhaps understated how bad he’d be.”

While some thought this was a front for attention, it grew even more serious when their teenage daughter, Claudia, joined the conversation to criticize both her parents and Trump.

At first, Kellyanne tried to maintain a front that their political disagreements did not interfer with their family life, but this mask came off in her memoir, “Here’s the Deal”, released in May. “For the first time since George and I had gotten serious, I was looking at the possibility that the man who had always had my back might one day stab me in it,” she wrote. “Was that too improbable to consider?”

She added: “I had already said publicly what I’d said privately to George: that his daily deluge of insults-by-tweet against my boss — or, as he put it sometimes, ‘the people in the White House’ — violated our marriage vows to ‘love, honor, and cherish’ each other.” She wrote that as her husband’s social media following grew, “it seemed the flood of reaction and attention he was receiving was magnetic and irresistible.”
