Special prosecutor Nathan Wade, leading former President Trump’s 2020 election interference case in Georgia, reached a temporary agreement in his divorce case, avoiding a hearing that could have delved into his alleged romantic involvement with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

This follows accusations by Michael Roman, a defendant in the Trump case, who alleged an improper relationship between Wade and Willis, claiming it could render the indictment “fatally defective.” Wade’s divorce came under scrutiny after court documents suggested financial and personal ties between him and Willis, including shared flights to San Francisco and Miami.
