'Paxton has got to drop out': Internet erupts over details of MAGA AG's alleged affair

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) — a close ally of President Donald Trump – is now accused of having a sordid affair with a conservative Christian influencer, according to a new report.

The Daily Mail reported Friday that Paxton is accused of having secret trysts with 57 year-old Tracy Duhon, who is an author and mother of seven. Duhon — the former wife of Louisiana-based car dealership owner Troy Duhon — reportedly met Paxton at the 2024 Kentucky Derby, and both stayed at the home of a mutual friend during their visit to Louisville. Two months after the Derby, Duhon filed for divorce from her then-husband.

According to the Mail's unnamed sources, Paxton and Duhon took frequent trips together behind their spouses' backs, including to several overseas locations. The Mail reported that one inside source told the publication that Paxton was "enamored" with Duhon's "faith."

The news of the affair comes just months after Paxton's former wife, Angela — a Republican member of the Texas State Senate — announced the end of their 38-year marriage in a tweet. While Angela Paxton didn't specifically mention an affair in her tweet, she said she was seeking a divorce "on Biblical grounds."

Tracy Duhon is a fierce child advocate, a servant leader of two charitable organizations, and the co-owner of Premier Automotive Group, which includes 33 car dealerships across 7 states. Alongside her husband Troy, Tracy has channeled her deep personal grief over the loss of three children into creating positive change. This profound experience led the couple to establish Giving Hope, an international nonprofit dedicated to changing lives through love. Giving Hope manages five food pantries throughout the country, distributing 15 million dollars of food annually, and has funded the establishment of multiple orphanages worldwide.

Her women’s mentoring network, Women of Hope Unite, harnesses the collective power of more than 1000 women to impact women and children of all ages, creating a legacy for future generations. The purpose of Women of Hope Unite is to find the gold in every woman, helping her realize her God-given purpose. This network is expanding its impact through new chapters in multiple states.

“Find the passion that inspires you and the injustice that angers you – for that’s what God has called you to do,” says Tracy. She is set to launch new resources in 2024 that will embody her passions and empower others with her vision.

Tracy and her husband Troy’s strong faith is reflected in their company, GND Media Group, committed to producing quality faith-based entertainment. GND produced the 2014 hit film ‘God’s Not Dead’ and their latest film, ‘The Blind,’ based on Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty fame, released in September 2023.

Tracy considers her husband Troy and their four children: Joshua, Abigail, Avah, and Annahstasia, her greatest gifts on earth. She is sharing her family’s story in an upcoming memoir, set to be released later this year, hoping to inspire other women to begin writing their own stories of living a life of HOPE.

If you’re upset over Paxton’s alleged affair, have I got some news for you.

It involves this one doofus whom you’ve been worshipping since, I don’t know, the past 10 years or so. You might want to look into that if affairs upset you.

We knew Paxton was doing something, of course. I figured he had gotten a mistress pregnant and she was refusing to have an abortion.

How did this woman lose three children?????

And we heard about the divorce awhile back why only hearing about affair now? Was she holding it over his head to gain what she wanted in divorce?

Considering how immoral the Republican Party is now they probably won't even care.

I’m guessing her faith wasn’t the only thing he was enamored with.
