Paxton Divorce Case Files
A whole lotta nothin'
Back in September, several media outlets and groups sued to have the records unsealed in the divorce of Senator Angela Paxton and Attorney General Ken Paxton.
Angela Paxton filed for divorce in July on “biblical grounds” and accused her husband of adultery. The divorce petition noted that the couple had stopped living together more than a year ago. The case was sealed shortly after the divorce was filed at the request of the Paxtons.

However, it may be possible that this request was not awarded as AG Ken Paxton is still registered to vote at the McKinney address and also voted at that address as recently as November 4th of this year. Current Revolt reached out to AG Paxton’s team who confirmed that the McKinney address was his home and that his belongings were there.
Fox interviewed family law attorney Jennifer Hargrave who said that the Paxtons agreeing to unseal the divorce case records likely indicates a settlement may be on the horizon. These discussions would be private and not available to the public, much to the dismay of many media outlets.
