Second gentleman Doug Emhoff has denied a shocking report that he slapped his then-girlfriend more than a decade ago after thinking she was flirting with another man.
“This report is untrue,” an Emhoff spokesperson told Semafor, adding that “any suggestion that he would or ever hit a woman is false.”
The Daily Mail reported Wednesday, citing three friends of the unidentified woman, that Emhoff smacked his then-lover so hard in the face that she was “spun around” after an event at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival in France.
One of the woman’s friends told the outlet that she called him “sobbing” after the attack.
It was hard to hear her,” he recalled. “She told me she was with a guy and he hit her.” It was very clear what she was telling me. She said she was with a guy, her date, she was at the Cannes Film Festival, and he hit her. She was in the car with the guy at the time.”
“I didn’t know what to do, I didn’t know whether to call the French police. I couldn’t get ahold of her after calling back.”
The friend said Emhoff may have thought his girlfriend was flirting with a valet employee after she put her hand on his shoulder following a night of drinking. The girlfriend, described as a “successful New York attorney” by the Daily Mail, apparently slapped Emhoff back, the friend said.
The friends provided photos and other interactions between Emhoff and the former girlfriend to the Daily Mail to corroborate their story. ***

How does he know whether he’s hitting a man or woman?

Rocky Emhoff is just a tough dude, especially in a fight with a woman.

The Spox should be asked..
Was the spox there when it happened?
So, we are only taking Douggie’s word for it?
Would he cheat on his wife?
When did he stop cheating on his wife?
The more questions they ask, the worse it looks...

Doug should be asked in front of the cameras..
Have you stopped beating your wife?
have you stopped beating your mistresses?
Is that why Kammy is a drunk?

Well at least he didn’t “grab her pu$$y.” That would be a bridge too far for demoncrats. 🤣

I doubt he ever grabbed Kamala’s, in fact I have no doubt he never even slept with her

I don't know how one goes from Willie Brown and Arsenio Hall ,who were both dapper and suave gents in their day, to the likes of Emhoff. I guess that bathing your liver with copious amounts of boxed wine could account for that unfortunate choice.
