Doug Emhoff Faces Allegations of Past Physical Assault from Ex-Girlfriend

The second gentleman denies claims of slapping his former partner during a 2012 event in France.

An ex-girlfriend of Doug Emhoff, husband to Vice President Kamala Harris, alleges he slapped her during a 2012 event in France, a claim he denies.
The woman, identified only as Jane, described Emhoff's public persona as a 'fabricated' contrast to his alleged private behavior.
Jane claims the incident occurred after Emhoff believed she was flirting with a valet, leading to a confrontation.
Emhoff has admitted to a past affair but, through a spokesperson, has categorically denied any physical abuse allegations.
The allegations have resurfaced amidst Jane's frustration over the perceived media silence and Emhoff's public image.
