Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., is facing scrutiny over his family-friendly image after conservatives reminded the public that he served his 9-month pregnant ex-wife with divorce papers in 2016. Gallego had posted a video on social media highlighting his role as a husband and father, but critics were quick to point out his past actions.

Controversy Over Divorce

Galleo’s divorce records, which were unsealed after a court battle, reveal that his then-wife was ‘likely to give birth any day’ when he served her with divorce papers. Conservatives and a former Jill Biden spokesperson have criticized Gallego’s attempt to portray himself as a devoted family man, given his past behavior.

Galleo’s current wife, Sydney Gallego, has defended her husband, stating that they did not meet until years after his divorce and that their family has a strong relationship. However, critics continue to question Gallego’s character and his use of campaign funds for personal expenses, including family travel and luxury purchases.
