Exotic Dancer Says Texas Abortion Ban Author Paid for Abortions by Jessica Valenti and Kylie Cheung, Jul 25, 2025, Abortion, Every Day
We had a rough news day, so let’s start with something downright delightful: Texas Rep. Giovanni Capriglione, lead author of the state’s ban, is being accused of paying for multiple abortions by an exotic dancer.
Every word of that sentence is a gift.
Dancer Alex Grace says that Capriglione has “funded” several abortions. The Barbed Wire reports that Grace alleges having a long-term affair with the Republican lawmaker, and that his hypocrisy drove her to come forward:
“If you are using abortions for your personal gain, if you are using women for your personal gain, why announce to the world that this isn’t who you are?”
The Republican representative admitted today to having an affair, but says, “I have never, nor would I ever, pay for an abortion.”
If you say so! ¯\(ツ)/¯
Texas GOP Rep. Giovanni Capriglione admits affair, denies abortion allegations
… In 2021, Capriglione carried the “trigger ban” that allowed Texas to ban nearly all abortions after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. As a result of that bill, performing an abortion in Texas is punishable by up to life in prison. Other laws supported by Capriglione made it a civil offense to “aid and abet” in a prohibited abortion, including paying for someone to terminate their pregnancy in Texas. …
Texas GOP Rep. Giovanni Capriglione Admits Affair, Denies Abortions
In a statement, Capriglione admitted he’d had an affair “years ago”, but said the other allegations are “categorically false and easily disproven.” He added that he had “never, nor would I ever, pay for an abortion.”
I do not believe you, sir! I think Repuglicans are mostly misogynistic assholes, hypocrites and use women mercilessly outside their marriages and use abortion often, to avoid baby-outside-the-marriage troubles.
TX Republican Accused Of Funding Abortions, Longtime Affair With Exotic Dancer
Family values!
Texas GOP Rep. Giovanni Capriglione has been married to his wife, Elisa, for 24 years and has three children. However, the Southlake Republican has allegedly been having an affair with an exotic dancer that began when she was 18 years old, and he’s accused of funding multiple abortions, the latter of which he denies.
The conservative outlet ‘Current Revolt’ published a video on Friday featuring Alex Grace, who alleges that Capriglione paid her for “meetups” and funded “several abortions for his own personal gain.” Caprigillione is a staunch pro-life Republican. The Trump-endorsed Republican has touted his pro-life work of carrying Texas’s “trigger ban” that placed a near-total ban on abortion in the state after the overturn of Roe V. Wade.
Three days before this news, Capriglione dropped his reelection bid.
Despite Capriglione dropping his reelection bid, Alex Grace isn’t going to stay quiet.
The Houston Chronicle reports that “Grace claimed that she first met Capriglione when she was 18 years old, working as an exotic dancer, saying he would come into the club every few weeks.”
“Grace reported that they would meet up at his office in Southlake, at hotels and at his home when Capriglione’s family was out of town,” the outlet reports. “Capriglione would provide her with “gifts,” including payments, on one occasion, sending her to a Chuck E. Cheese to collect cash in an envelope.”
“Grace alleged that Capriglione’s wife was aware of the affair and encouraged him to go to the Red Light District in Amsterdam every year,” the report continues. “It was only when Capriglione moved into politics that a distance began to emerge between the two.”
The affair ended in 2019 or 2020, Grace said, after that she spoke over the phone, expressing her anger at his politics and instructing him to “stick to who you are.” That’s when Capriglione allegedly hung up the phone and cut all their lines of communication, never speaking to her again.
Capriglione threatened legal action against Current Revolt and Alex Grace:
Capriglione still has another year and a half left in his seventh term, according to the Texas Tribune. Capriglione said in a statement that he would “fight for the people I represent, the principles we share, and the things that make Texas great until I walk out the door of the legislature for the last time in January of 2027.”
mongopat:
You cannot be a RepubliKlan politician without being a raging hypocrite. Being a shameless liar is also a requirement. Their rotten fascist party screens out any potential honest & earnest people of character before allowing someone to run for office.

Mike Wilkerson:

This scumbag is fairly mild compared to so many other PPPers. Of course he denies the abortions. That is real jail time there.
Here’s another hypocritical douche fucker:
2017: ‘Pro-Life’ PA Rep Announces Retirement After Reports He Urged Mistress To Have Abortion
… Fake pro-life Republican Representative Tim Murphy has decided to retire after shocking (but not really that shocking) news broke just 24 hours ago that not only did he have an affair, but he encouraged his mistress to have an abortion.
The fact that he supported abortion is not the shocking part. Abortion is a reproductive health issue and a decision solely between the woman, her medical provider and her partner. At the end of the day, the choice is the woman’s. Republicans need to get out of our uterus and focus on other things, like gun control, the opioid crisis, college loans, and shoring up the ACA, among other things
For his part, Murphy walked the party line, screaming in public about how evil abortion is and demanding it be outlawed, even voting as recently as yesterday for a 20-week abortion ban. Except when it is his mistress, whom he cheated on his wife with, whom he also may have gotten pregnant. Then, abortion is totally fine. But you know, anyone else, no. No abortions. …
