Ex-Senator Sinema’s Secret Affair Revealed in Court Filings
A deposition in a North Carolina lawsuit details former Senator Kyrsten Sinema’s alleged affair with her married bodyguard, Matthew Ammel, including a late-night kiss in 2024 and a first encounter at CNN host Jessica Dean’s New York wedding. The affair is being cited by Ammel’s ex-wife Heather Ammel as the cause of their 14-year marriage’s breakdown, and Sinema is contesting jurisdiction while the case moves toward an evidentiary hearing. The deposition also references other encounters in Arizona and Aspen.
