Republican Rep. Jeff Duncan of South Carolina is accused of having multiple affairs.

The bombshell allegation came as his wife, Melody, filed for divorce.

A divorce filing at a courthouse in Laurens County claims Duncan left his home to live with another woman.

The pair married in 1988 and have three adult children.

As a conservative, Duncan has been a vocal supporter of “life and traditional family values.”

According to the complaint, Duncan “recently left the marriage and has admitted to [Melody] that he has an ongoing sexual relationship.”

The complaint noted that Duncan had admitted to the “adulterous relationship to many other people, including the parties’ sons and members of his staff.”

“Upon information and belief, [Duncan] then left the next day and went directly to the home of his paramour, Liz Williams, in the Washington D.C. area, where [Melody] is informed and believes he continues to reside,” the complaint stated.

“[Melody] is informed and believes that [Duncan’s] extramarital relationship(s) is/are widely known in political circles of South Carolina and Washington D.C.”

Melody Duncan requested the court to award permanent and periodic alimony, possession and exclusive use of their marital residence and their house in Montana.

The complaint argues that Duncan should be solely responsible for outstanding debts and other obligations, maintain health insurance for her and their children, take responsibility for both of their uncovered medical expenses, and cover attorney’s costs and fees, among other things.
