NC court lets Sinema’s 'homewrecker' case proceed against former senator

A North Carolina federal judge ruled that Heather Ammel’s alienation-of-affection lawsuit against former Sen. Kyrsten Sinema can move forward, finding sufficient connection to the state after noting Ammel’s residency and Sinema’s communications with Ammel’s husband, which the court described as advancing a romantic relationship. The ruling allows the NC “homewrecker” claim to proceed even as Sinema contends she has no meaningful ties to North Carolina.

Former Sen. Kyrsten Sinema acknowledges a romantic relationship with her former security guard, Matthew Ammel, dating to 2023–2024, as Heather Ammel — Ammel’s ex-wife — sues in North Carolina for alienation of affection.
