Former U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema has confirmed a romantic relationship with her former security detail, Matthew Ammel, that began during her time in office. This acknowledgment comes amid a lawsuit filed by Ammel’s ex-wife, Heather, who claims Sinema’s involvement led to the couple’s separation. Sinema’s declaration states that their relationship became intimate in late May 2024, while her attorney argues that her actions do not warrant legal responsibility in North Carolina, where “alienation of affection” lawsuits are permitted. The lawsuit, which alleges Sinema’s interference, was moved to federal court after initially being filed in state court.
