Wife of Texas GOP leader files for divorce on “biblical grounds”

The wife of a leading Texas Republican has filed for divorce on “biblical grounds.” Angela Paxton is seeking to end 38 years of marriage to her husband, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who’s a vocal ally of President Trump. The announcement came as he campaigns for the U-S Senate. In a social media post, Angela Paxton said she believes “marriage is a sacred covenant” and that she “earnestly pursued reconciliation. But in light of recent discoveries,” she wrote, “I do not believe that it honors God or is loving to myself, my children, or Ken to remain in the marriage.”
