Tim Scott revealed that the mystery woman he brought on stage at the end of Wednesday’s debate is his girlfriend Mindy.
The South Carolina senator’s campaign confirmed to DailyMail.com that the pair are dating after a touching moment as the Republican showdown ended in Miami.
It put an end to furious speculation about his love life.
Amid a high-voltage debate with several personal attacks, Scott stayed out of the line of fire and was instead seen clamming up with his girlfriend for what appears to be his first time appearing in front of the media.
Tim Scott has revealed that the mystery woman he brought on stage at the end of the debate was his girlfriend.
When asked in the spin room after the debate what Mindy is like, Senator Scott replied, “She’s great.”
He did not respond to a follow-up question about whether her participation in Wednesday’s debate was a “soft-launch” to make their relationship more public.
It’s also unclear whether Mindy will make more public appearances on the campaign trail, as many of the other Republican candidates are bringing their families and spouses along for the ride.
Scott told reporters that he has been dating Mindy for “several months.”
