Reactions flooded social media Friday following news of former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's divorce from her husband, Bryon Noem.
Bryon's alleged affair and "bimbofication" fetish were reported in April.
Noem's mother, Corinne Arnold, provided additional details to The Daily Mail, disclosing that Bryon moved out of their Castlewood, South Dakota, home. She also described events after Kristi discovered his reported "secret double life" online.
Social media users responded critically to both the divorce and the revelations.
Attorney Tom Ryan commented on X, "The MAGA Family Values cry has always been a fraud."
Newsmax White House producer Marisela Ramirez posted on X, "I feel like there had to be an alternative to 'final blow'."
Progressive attorney Frank D. Russo shared on Bluesky, "The latest from the clown car of the Trump regime."
"Where do they find all of these people? This is pathetic," he added.
Liberal commentator "Patty" questioned on Bluesky, "Kristi Noem divorcing husband what happened to staying together for Christian values?"
