harris: Kamala Harris feeling the heat? Her husband, Doug Emhoff, forcefully slapped ex-girlfriend for flirting with another man at Cannes Film Festival

Following charges that Doug Emhoff struck her ex-girlfriend, Vice President Kamala Harris‘s earlier condemnations of domestic abuse and sexual assault perpetrators have come back to haunt her. Critics posit that Harris‘ prior statements supporting survivors of abuse have provoked renewed debate in light of the Emhoff charges.

Doug Emhoff, 59, allegedly slapped the woman in the face so hard that she whirled around while waiting in a valet queue late at night after a Cannes Film Festival event in May 2012.

Jane first said in 2014 that she had dated Emhoff, and she repeated the complete tale of his alleged abuse in 2018, when then-Senator Kamala Harris was in the spotlight for grilling Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in a Senate hearing over sexual assault claims.

The pals, who all wanted not to be named for fear of punishment by Emhoff, provided with images of him and Jane together from 2012, as well as other papers and communications verifying the story as reported by the Daily Mail
