GOP Congressmember Miller Faces Allegations of Domestic Abuse from Ex-Wife

HeadlineJul 30, 2026

Republican Congressmember Max Miller of Ohio is facing allegations of domestic abuse as he runs for reelection. His ex-wife Emily Moreno, who is the daughter of Ohio’s Republican Senator Bernie Moreno, claims that Congressmember Miller burned her chest and stomach by throwing hot water at her; held a gun to her head; and fractured their 2-year-old daughter’s collarbone. Miller is also facing a defamation lawsuit from former Trump spokesperson Stephanie Grisham, who alleges that he abused her, as well, during their relationship before he married Moreno. This comes as Democratic Congressmember Ro Khanna and Republican Congressmember Anna Paulina Luna recently introduced a bill barring federal elected officials from using campaign funds to settle sexual misconduct allegations.
