'I dumped him': Nancy Mace uses Fox News interview to smear 'unfaithful' ex-fiancé

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) used a Fox News appearance to smear her former fiancé for alleged infidelity.

Fox News host Howard Kurtz broached the subject of Mace's recent break-up in an interview that aired on Sunday.

"You've recently been asked about breaking up with your fiancé," Kurtz noted. "What happened?"

"Well, a bunch of media wrote about it, but, you know, infidelity can be a very painful thing," Mace revealed. "I caught him being unfaithful. He was on a dating app, and so I dumped him."

The lawmaker gave the same advice to other women.

"I would encourage any woman that's in the same situation, just walk away and try to make the best life that you can for you and your family and do the right thing," she insisted. "But it's been a very, very painful couple of weeks for me and my children."

For his part, former fiancé Patrick Bryant said he never cheated on Mace. He told DailyMail.com that he downloaded the dating app to delete an old profile.
