Full Headline: Rep. Matt Gaetz's communications director resigns amid probe into allegations regarding Gaetz's sexual relationships
Luke Ball, who had been serving as communications director for Rep. Matt Gaetz, resigned Friday amid a federal investigation reportedly looking into sexual relationships the Florida Republican representative had.
Ball had worked for Gaetz since 2017, when he joined his office as an intern. He later worked for his 2018 congressional campaign and became the congressman's press secretary, and later communications director, in 2019.
"The Office of Congressman Matt Gaetz and Luke Ball have agreed that it would be best to part ways. We thank him for his time in our office, and we wish him the best moving forward," Gaetz's office said in a statement.
The federal investigation is looking into whether Gaetz and a Florida associate provided cash or others things of value to women they had sex with after connecting online, The New York Times first reported Thursday evening and a source familiar with the matter confirmed to ABC News.
