Kathleen Manafort supports husband Paul Manafort’s after legal charges! Read about the hearings here!
Kathleen Manafort and Paul Manafort have been married for decades now. Their marriage has come across an unseen problem recently. Paul was arrested on charges of money laundering ($18 million from 2006 to 2016) and conspiracy, among other charges after a special month-long investigation. Through all the charges being filed, Kathleen has stood beside her husband. And she has kept a low profile since then.
With all the charges Paul has to face, he has not pleaded guilty. His trial has already begun and is currently running in different courtrooms.
Kathleen and Paul at the hearing
Kathleen and Paul are both lawyers. Moreover, the couple has been actively involved in politics as a Republican for decades now.
Since Paul’s arrest, Kathleen has attended many of her husband Paul’s hearings to show her love
and support. There were even reports that Kathleen sat in the front row at the hearing. The hearing had occurred at the Alexandria, Virginia, courtroom. Things seem to be going well between them as the report had further added Paul, a former Trump campaign manager gave a smile at his wife before he left.
In May, Kathleen had been in the courtroom. Paul Manafort’s legal team had requested a dismissal of the tax charges. For the hearing, the couple arrived and left the courthouse together.
Kathleen under investigation
Paul is not the only one being investigated. While Paul was arrested at their home, Kathleen was also searched for weapons, which is a standard FBI protocol. Also, she had been shopping lavishly and such expenditure is questioned by the jury. Kathleen’s Mercedes Benz SL 550 that she had purchased in 2012, designer suits, and home renovations hint at their expensive lifestyle and are also under question.

Kathleen’s exact birth date and place of birth are both not known. The woman who likes to stay away from the public eye has managed to keep it a secret.

In March, text messages between Kathleen and Paul’s two daughters, Andrea Manafort and Jessica Manafort were hacked. The text messages indicated their parents can’t go through a public divorce because it would unearth “too many skeletons.” More bio…
