Married MAGA Rep Addresses Bombshell Aide Affair Claim

A Trump-endorsed Texas congressman has addressed his alleged affair with a former aide who died by suicide last year.

Rep. Tony Gonzales, 45, has been dogged by questions about a reported relationship with his former regional district director, Regina Ann Santos-Aviles. Santos-Aviles was 35 when she set herself on fire outside her home last September, leaving behind her eight-year-old son.

Last November, Gonzales, who is married with six children, said at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin that the “rumors are completely untruthful” following a Daily Mail report on the alleged affair.
