Doug Emhoff, husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, has acknowledged having an extramarital affair during his first marriage. Emhoff admitted that the affair, which involved his daughter's nanny, Najen Naylor, led to the end of his marriage to his first wife, Kerstin. The affair reportedly resulted in Naylor becoming pregnant, although she did not keep the child. The affair occurred around 2009, and Naylor later moved to New York. Emhoff's acknowledgment came after the Daily Mail published details of the relationship, which were initially reported by right-wing activist Laura Loomer. Emhoff stated in a statement to CNN that he took responsibility for his actions and that he and his family have worked through the issue. The affair occurred several years before Emhoff met and married Harris.
