Angela Paxton Files for Divorce from Texas AG Ken Paxton Amid Adultery Claims

State Senator Angela Paxton has officially filed for divorce from her husband, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, citing irreconcilable differences and accusing him of adultery in court documents. The petition was filed in Collin County on Thursday, revealing the couple ceased living together in June 2024.

Both Angela and Ken Paxton released public statements on social media site X following the filing. Angela Paxton stated she was seeking divorce “on biblical grounds,” emphasizing her pursuit of reconciliation but noting that “in light of recent discoveries,” she believes it no longer honors God or her family to remain in the marriage.

Ken Paxton’s statement acknowledged the decision to “start a new chapter in our lives” after facing “countless political attacks and public scrutiny,” expressing pride in their family and requesting privacy.

The divorce filing comes as Ken Paxton is campaigning for U.S. Senate against John Cornyn, and amid his long-standing history of corruption allegations and an impeachment proceeding in 2023, where he was accused of securing a job for a woman with whom he allegedly had an affair. The couple has been married since 1986 and has four adult children and five grandchildren.
