Trouble in Kamala Harris’ Marriage: Husband Doug Emhoff Blamed for Hurting Her Election Chances Amid Shocking Allegations
The former Second Gentleman, Doug Emhoff, is being blamed for his wife Kamala Harris’ embarrassing loss in the 2024 presidential election.
Sources say their marriage is now in trouble, with Harris reportedly seeing Emhoff as a burden. While Harris leaned on him right after the loss, insiders claim her attitude has changed, and she’s now rethinking his role in her political future.
Now out of her vice-presidential duties, Harris is considering her next steps, which might include running for Governor of California in 2026 or taking a high-profile legal job in New York, which would mean splitting her time between the East and West Coasts.
Sources say Harris is debating whether Emhoff should join her for another campaign, as he didn’t help her during the presidential race. One insider claimed, “Doug didn’t help Kamala during the election. His past scandals, like getting his child’s nanny pregnant and assaulting an ex-girlfriend, hurt her image.”
Although the couple, married since 2014, appeared united at public events like Jimmy Carter’s funeral and Donald Trump’s inauguration, sources claim their marriage is facing difficulties behind the scenes. An insider said, “Things don’t seem perfect in their marriage, even though Doug tries to present himself as a supportive husband.”
The source added that Harris has relied on men to advance her career before, referring to her past relationship with former San Francisco mayor Willie Brown. “But what does Doug do for her now?” the insider asked.
Some believe Harris may skip running for California governor, seeing it as a difficult and unrewarding job, but she may aim for another presidential run in 2028. However, it’s unclear if the Democratic Party will back her.
Harris’ former communications chief, Ashley Etienne, shared that Harris isn’t giving up easily. “She told me she’s not going to disappear quietly,” Etienne said.
GOP strategist Matt Gorman, however, doubts Harris will secure the 2028 Democratic nomination, especially with the party struggling after losing the House and Senate. He suggested Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, among others, might be a stronger contender.
