Former senator Kyrsten Sinema admitted in court filings to a romantic and intimate relationship with a married member of her security detail who lived in North Carolina, but asks a federal judge to dismiss a North Carolina-based alienation-of-affection lawsuit, arguing most interactions occurred outside the state and she had no knowledge of the guard’s North Carolina residence until late 2023. The filings describe several encounters across California, New York, Washington, DC, Colorado and Arizona, and note campaign-finance payments related to the guard amid broader coverage of Sinema’s post-Senate activities and political shifts.
