Kristi Noem Divorcing Husband of 34 Years After Late Spring Decision, Mother Says

Kristi Noem is divorcing her husband of 34 years, Bryon Noem, according to her mother Corinne Arnold. nypost.com reported that Arnold made the statement in an interview at her home next door to the Noem ranch. Arnold said Noem confided her plans in late spring.

She learned the news at a family birthday party for one of the couple's grandchildren, where Noem confirmed the split and named a lawyer from Sioux Falls. Photos released earlier this year showed Bryon Noem, 56, wearing enormous fake breasts while chatting with a fetish performer from the bimbofication scene.

com reported in late March that Bryon had chatted with women in that scene and participated himself.

President Trump fired Noem from her DHS job on March 5. The dismissal came one day after she declined to answer a question during a congressional hearing about whether she had sexual relations with Corey Lewandowski. Bryon Noem sat with her in the hearing room.

Noem had claimed that President Trump approved a $220 million DHS ad campaign featuring her. Arnold stated that Noem would never have an affair with Lewandowski. No divorce filings have been made public.
