Heather Ammel, the ex-wife of a member of former Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema's security detail, is suing Sinema for having an affair with Ammel's ex-husband, Matthew, causing the breakdown of their marriage.
Matthew Ammel began serving as Sinema's security detail beginning in 2022 and Heather is suing Sinema under a North Carolina statute called alienation of affection, a legal claim that allows spouses to seek damages when a third party is alleged to have maliciously interfered in a marriage. Ammel is seeking monetary compensation for the harm she says was caused to her marriage by Sinema.
