Trump-endorsed Ohio Congressman Accused Of Physically Abusing His Ex-wife

According to a report by the Daily Mail, a MAGA representative has been accused of beating his ex-wife and throwing a pot of boiling water at her. The Trump-endorsed congressman’s ex-wife is the daughter of a Republican senator.

On May 7, the outlet cited court filings: “Ohio Republican Congressman Max Miller is accused of years of documented physical abuse against his ex-wife, Emily Moreno, the daughter of Ohio Senator Bernie Moreno.”

Moreno also accused Miller of beating her up on one occasion, where she sustained bruises on her arms, elbow, and torso. She shared the photos with Daily Mail, accusing her ex-husband of grabbing and hitting her.

The outlet reported their messy divorce reached a settlement in June 2025, and they agreed to joint custody of their daughter. The court also ordered Miller to pay $2,500 in child support each month.

"Emily moved on March 4 to overhaul the custody arrangement entirely, citing her ex-husband's 'dangerous physical behavior' in their daughter's presence,” the outlet reported.

Moreno has documented all the abuse she endured in selfies. One of the photos showed her injuries after she was hit by her ex-husband on February 1. The Bay Village Police Department confirmed that there was a report of child abuse on that date. However, more could not be revealed, as the investigation is still ongoing.

Moreno’s attorney told the outlet, “The photographic evidence speaks for itself. These images, combined with the documented history in court filings, directly contradict years of Mr. Miller’s denial,” Moreno’s attorney told the Daily Mail.”

However, on X (formerly Twitter), Miller denied the allegations. He wrote, “The moral of the story is this. My ex-wife needs help. She is more focused on hurting me than loving our child. She does not need ‘journalists’ that do nothing more than copy and paste what they receive from terrible lawyers, convincing that this will help them in court…it won’t.”

Emily Moreno is the daughter of Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio). The pair married at Trump’s Bedminster golf club.
