Nancy Pelosi is an American politician serving as speaker of the United States House of Representatives since 2019, and previously from 2007 to 2011. She has served as a U.S. representative from California since 1987. Paul Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi’s husband, was recently arrested for DUI.
According to TMZ, The House Speaker’s spouse was detained in Napa County just before midnight Saturday night. He was taken into jail hours later on two counts of driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08 or more, both misdemeanors.
The incidence of the arrest has yet to be revealed in full. TMZ is working on acquiring a full narrative. They are also looking for a mug shot if one is available.
The details of Paul’s arrest match what we know about him publicly, including his birthday, which is stated as April 15, 1940. He is, in fact, 82 years old. There’s no information on whether Speaker Nancy Pelosi was with Paul during the bust.
She’s frequently in D.C. for her job, but it’s Memorial Day weekend, so she could’ve been back home with her family for a while. She appears to be in Rhode Island right now, giving a commencement speech to graduates. As far as we can learn, neither she nor her children or her family have publicly acknowledged Paul’s detention.
In any event, Paul’s bail was set at $5,000, so we’re guessing he’s already free. Nancy has been his wife since 1963. This is a developing story so stay tuned to Thirsty for more.
