GOP Representative Thomas Massie gets married again a year after losing his wife.

Congressman Thomas Massie Remarries After Tragic Loss

Congressman Thomas Massie has tied the knot again, a little over a year following the death of his wife, Rhonda Massey, whom he was married to for 35 years.

The Republican from Kentucky, often viewed with skepticism by former President Trump, shared on Monday that he has married Carolyn Grace Moffa, who previously worked as a staffer for Senator Rand Paul. He also humorously noted that raw milk was, of course, served at their wedding.

The ceremony was held on October 19 in Pennsylvania, Moffa’s home state, and was attended by notable Republican figures including Jim Jordan, Warren Davidson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Victoria Spaatz.

Massie announced their marriage on social media, describing how they had been legally wed in Kentucky on the same day, facilitated by the pastor of their church. He mentioned a celebratory Christian wedding with friends and family over the weekend.

Rhonda Massey, the mother of Massie’s four children, sadly passed away in June 2024. The reason for her death has not been made public.

Interestingly, Massie proposed to Moffa on the steps of the Library of Congress, a location that holds significance as it was where they had their first date. Reflecting on their connection, he noted their professional meeting over a decade ago and shared that Carolyn had visited his family’s grass-fed cow farm several years prior.

In recent political news, President Trump nominated retired Navy SEAL Ed Galine to take over Massey’s congressional seat after previously criticizing him as a “third-rate lawmaker” for his stances that opposed Trump’s proposed budget and foreign policy, especially regarding Iran.

Massey has taken a strong stance on various issues, demanding the release of Jeffrey Epstein’s files. Additionally, he stands against Trump’s expansive tax cuts and spending plans, arguing that they will exacerbate the national debt.
