Dallas Mayor Johnson (who became a repub after being reelected) - details about his divorce are starting to come out.

Normally a couple divorcing details aren't anybody's business. But...

Eric Johnson’s Relationship With City Staffer at Heart of His Divorce

Mayor Eric Johnson’s wife of 16 years alleged in court Tuesday that she “caught him in our house” being unfaithful with a woman employed by the city of Dallas, in February 2021.

The revelation came during the final day of divorce proceedings involving the mayor and his wife, Nakita Johnson, in the 303rd District Court at the George L. Allen Sr. Courts Building. Nakita testified that she confronted her husband that day in February, and he admitted to the affair. “He basically said that it had happened a dozen times or so and didn’t give much more than that,”

Campaign finance reports show that Mayor Johnson paid about $110,000 to the woman’s firm during the 2023 campaign; he ran unopposed.


The court records are sealed but apparently somebody is talking to the media.

From the article, he was questioned about trips he and the woman took to Canada and elsewhere. He claimed they slept in the same room for two weeks but did not have sex! Sure!!
