Herschel Walker son’s responds to report claiming senate candidate paid for ex-lover’s abortion

The only named child of controversial Georgian Senate candidate Herschel Walker has spoken of a report that the pro-life candidate secretly paid for the abortion of a former lover.

Christian Walker, 22, the son of the former NFL star and his college sweetheart, Cindy Grossman, said on Twitter: “Every family member of Herschel Walker asked him not to go to the office because we all knew (some of) his past.” . ‘

He continued, “Everyone. He decided to give us the middle finger and air all his dirty laundry in public, all the while lying about it.”

Walker’s campaign has denied the new story in which the former soccer star is accused of paying for a partner’s abortion in 2009.

In response to The Daily Beasts Shocking new article published Monday in which the woman in question showed the report a personalized check and card she had received from Walker, a spokesperson for his campaign called a “false story.”

Christian also tweeted: “I know my mother and I would really appreciate it if my father Herschel Walker would stop lying and making fun of us.”

He added: “You weren’t a ‘family man’ when you left us to beat a bunch of women, threatened to kill us and moved us more than six times in six months fleeing your violence.”

His closing statement read: ‘I don’t care about someone who has a bad past and takes responsibility. But how dare you lie and pretend to be a “moral, Christian, sincere man.” You have lived a life where you DESTROY other people’s lives. How dare you.’

Walker responded to his son’s messages, saying, “I LOVE my son no matter what.”

Christian responded by writing in a now-deleted tweet: “You have 4 kids we know and you weren’t in the house raising ONE of them, you were cheating and lying.”

He added, “If you loved your kids, you’d raise them instead of running for a Senate seat to boost your ego.”

In turn, Christian has extreme pro-life views on his social media channels.

In May, he joked in a TikTok video that women fighting for abortion rights don’t have to worry about reproductive rights because they’re too unattractive to have sex.

He said in a December 2020 tweet: “Liberals hate women who are not male-hating lesbians or weekly abortion patients.”

A month later he wrote: ‘It’s not my job to pay for your abortion because you couldn’t close your legs. My taxes should go to useful things.’

Attorney Robert Ingram, who represents Walker, told the website: “You just want to spread stories to attack black conservatives. You target black conservatives.’

Georgia’s Senate race is one of the most closely watched in the country as Republicans try to regain control of Congress.

Walker will face incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock in the November election.

Walker said in May 2022 that he is against abortion without exception. He told reporters, “There is no exception in my mind. Like I said, I believe in life. I believe in life.’

He continued, “You never know what a kid is going to be. And I’ve seen some people, they’ve had hard times, but I always said, ‘No matter what happens, hard times make hard people.’

Walker has called for more funding for single parent adoption and support.

The woman, who is not named in the report, showed a reporter a September 2009 receipt for the proceedings.

That same month, the woman received a check for $700 and a get well card with the messages “Rest,” “Relax” and “Recover.”

According to the Daily Beast, the woman was also able to prove that she was in a romantic relationship with Walker.

After the article was published, Walker said he planned to sue the Daily Beast and the lawsuit would be filed Tuesday.

He wrote in a statement published on his social media channels: “This is an outright lie and I deny it in the strongest possible terms.”

“This is another abhorrent ax job from a journalist disguised Democrat activist who has obsessively attacked my family and tried to take me down since the start of this race,” the statement read.

It continued: “He harassed friends of mine and asked if I was the father of their children. He called my children a “secret because I didn’t want to use them as props for a political campaign.”

The statement concluded: “Now they are using an anonymous source to defame me even more. They will do everything they can to stay in power. It’s disgusting, gutter politics.’

Walker said in August 2022 that abortion was “something people don’t worry about” in relation to the November midterm elections, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

Despite this, he released a statement in September highlighting his opponent’s pro-choice record.

Walker said of Warnock: ‘Raphael Warnock wants to protect the killing of babies until birth. We have to do better.’

Last month, Walker approved Senator Lindsay Graham’s proposed nationwide ban on abortions after 15 weeks, before most women know they are pregnant.

In June, while secretly interviewed by a liberal activist posing as one of his supporters, Walker repeatedly denied ever paying for an abortion.

Shortly after the Daily Beast article was published, right-wing activist Erick Erickson tweeted: “I thought we all knew this. Old news and people also change over time.’

Erickson later clarified his comments by saying, “The Walker thing may not have been made public, but I’m about 100% sure one of his opponents told me it was a rumor.”

He added: “I thought it was public, but maybe it wasn’t. It has certainly been discussed in quiet discussions.’

In the 2008 book Breaking Free, Walker revealed his mental illness. He said he had been diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder. In that report, Walker talked about as many as a dozen personalities — or “changers” — he constructed as a defense mechanism against the bullying he suffered as a stuttering, overweight child.

The National Alliance on Mental Illness describes the condition as “alternating between multiple identities,” leaving a person “gaps in the memory of everyday events.” It notes that men with the disorder often exhibit “more violent behavior than amnesia.”

In his book, Walker acknowledged violent urges. He wrote that he played Russian roulette and recalled pointing a pistol, loaded with a single bullet, at his head at his kitchen table in 1991. “I wasn’t suicidal,” Walker explained, but “just saw mortality as the ultimate challenge.”

Throwing a turning point story, Walker said that in 2001 he decided that “it was time to stop running and face some harsh realities.” He cited therapy and his Christian faith as influences.

His turning point: driving his car to confront a man who had “confused my schedule” and thinking about what it would be like to shoot the man. Walker changed course, he wrote, after seeing a bumper sticker that read “SMILE. JESUS ​​LOVES YOU.’
