Christian Walker, the son of U.S. Senate candidate Herschel Walker, has gone on a tirade accusing his father of several indiscretions including cheating on Christian’s mother and fathering several children outside of his marriage, and even encouraging an ex to get an abortion despite him currently taking a pro-life stance on the campaign trail.
Walker’s social posts came after a bombshell report from The Daily Beast that showed evidence that Walker not only encouraged, but paid for an abortion his ex received back in 2009. Christian is a prominent right-wing figure in his own right, and has hundreds of thousands of followers on platforms like Twitter and TikTok.
His dad had his support at one point, with Christian appearing at Herschel’s campaign event to speak for him, but he has harshly changed his tune.
In one tweet, he said Herschel “left us to bang a bunch of women, threatened to kill us, and had us move over 6 times in 6 months running from your violence.”
Christian seemed motivated to speak out after Herschel responded to The Daily Beast, denying the report. He also noted that Herschel’s run for Senate was heavily discouraged by his family, but they were ultimately ignored.
Christian also recorded a video addressing his family situation. “You know my favorite issue to talk about is father absence. Surprise! Because it affected me.” He also added that some of the evidence shown in The Daily Beast piece, a get well card from an abortion clinic, has “literally his handwriting” on it.
“We could’ve ended this [campaign] on day one, we haven’t. I haven’t told any stories, I’m just saying don’t lie. Don’t lie on my mom, don’t lie on me and don’t lie on the lives you’ve destroyed and act like you’re some moral family man,” Walker said.
