Former US Senator Kyrsten Sinema has been facing intense online scrutiny for her scandalous past with her ex-bodyguard, Matthew Ammel. In January 2026, his ex-wife, Heather Lynn Ammel filed a federal lawsuit against Kyrsten, alleging her affair with Mattew was responsible for their marriage having fallen apart. As per recent updates in the case, Kyrsten admitted to having been intimate with Matthew multiple times.
Amid that, reports suggest that Krysten might not be sued on charges of being a ‘homewrecker’. She cited a specific law to argue that Heather had no grounds to sue her on that ground.
Will Heather Ammel be unable to sue Kyrsten Sinema for homewrecker charges? Here’s what we know
Matthew Ammel’s ex-wife, Heather Ammel, is hell-bent on suing Kyrsten Sinema for having an affair with him. Heather Ammel originally filed the civil lawsuit in Moore County, North Carolina. The case was subsequently transferred to a federal court in North Carolina by the legal team of the former US Senator. Heather’s lawsuit was filed under North Carolina’s “alienation of affection” law (locally known as a “homewrecker” law).
