Jilted Wife of Fani Willis’ Alleged Lover Drops Bombshell in Court

The estranged wife of special counsel Nathan Wade submitted evidence to a Cobb County, Georgia, court that indicated that her husband had purchased plane tickets for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis so that they could go on romantic trips together.

The Friday court filing reviewed by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution included evidence of trips to Aruba, Miami and San Francisco.

Credit card statements submitted by Joycelyn Wade in her divorce case showed that two tickets from Atlanta to San Francisco priced at $817.80 each.

Other charges, including thousands of dollars paid to cruise lines and tour companies, appeared on the statements, but could not be associated with any specific individuals.

It was also not immediately clear whether Willis reimbursed Nathan Wade for any of the charges or, in fact, whether they stayed in the same room while traveling.

The trips all occurred in 2022 and 2023 — after Willis had hired Nathan Wade to serve as special prosecutor in her racketeering case against former President Donald Trump.

“Since Plaintiff filed for divorce, he has taken trips to San Francisco and Napa Valley, to Florida and even gone on Caribbean cruises, enjoyed a trip to Belize, another to the country of Panama and even just last month took a trip to Australia,” the Friday filing said, according to NBC News.

Should Willis be pulled off the Trump case?

“The evidence is clear that Ms. Willis was an intended travel partner for at least some of these trips as indicated by flights he purchased for her to accompany him,” it continued.

The Journal-Constitution described the “detailed credit card statements” filed by Joycelyn Wade as appearing to “bolster allegations of a romantic relationship between Nathan Wade and Willis.”

Joycelyn Wade’s attorneys have been seeking Willis’ testimony in the divorce case under oath, arguing that Willis has information about Nathan Wade’s finances. Willis has argued that she shouldn’t be forced to testimony because the Wades’ marriage is already obviously over and her testimony would therefore be moot.

The District Attorney’s Office declined to respond to NBC’s request for comment, and Willis did not immediately respond to a similar request from the Journal-Constitution.

One of Trump’s co-defendants in the RICO case had previously accused Willis of improper conduct with her special prosecutor, and a hearing on those allegations is scheduled for Feb. 15.

Another hearing, this one to hear arguments on Willis’ motion to quash Joycelyn Wade’s subpoena that would require her to give a deposition in the divorce case, was scheduled on an emergency basis for Monday morning.

Meanwhile, Commissioner Bob Ellis of the Fulton County Board of Commissioners issued a statement Friday promising an investigation into the alleged relationship between Willis and Nathan Wade.

“Under no circumstances should an elected official contract with or hire someone who they are in a romantic relationship with,” Ellis said in the statement.

Even if the two were not romantically involved, “accepting favors and extravagant gifts from such contractors should also be considered improper,” he added.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them. 

 

Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal. 

 

And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people. 

 

The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.

 

We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.

 

But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight. 

 

The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help? 

 

With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed truth to millions of Americans. 

 

We can do this only with your help. Please don’t wait one minute. Donate right now.

 

Thank you for reading,

Josh Manning
