As Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) took the stage at the annual Faith and Freedom Coalition’s fall banquet, the South Carolina senator and presidential hopeful was first faced with a personal question: Does he have a special lady in his life?
“Yes,” he said with a laugh. “If you haven't read about her yet — sure, why not? It is one of the more asked questions recently. I do. I'm dating a lovely Christian girl.”Scott pivoted the question into his platform stance on family values, pointing to his background of growing up in poverty in a single-parent household.
The rumors swirling around Scott’s personal life have become more persistent over the last few months as some top donors reportedly became concerned the South Carolina senator was running for president as an unmarried candidate. Scott has only briefly mentioned his girlfriend in previous interviews, but the candidate has never revealed her name.
