“It comes just days after Mace faced an exodus from her office on Capitol Hill. Six staffers resigned and claimed she runs a ‘toxic’ office,” Breitbart News reported.
"Mace dismissed inquiries from the outlet about her love life, telling the Daily Mail, 'I’m not Taylor Swift. No one gives a damn about my relationship status,'” it added.

"Mace, 46, got engaged to entrepreneur Patrick Bryant in May of 2022. The couple, however, have split up and are now in a fight over several multi-million dollar homes they shared," the Daily Caller reported.
"The couple reportedly split in November and are battling over a $3.9 million beachfront home and a $1.3 million Washington, D.C., home," it continued.

"Mace blamed her frisky fiancé for being late to a prayer breakfast this summer, joking about pre-marital sex in a religious faux pas," the Daily Mail reported from earlier this year.
"The 45-year-old congresswoman said she had woken up at 7 a.m. and only had 45 minutes to get ready for the annual event, which brought together South Carolina lawmakers and took place on Capitol Hill," it noted.
Outside of her relationship, Mace was one of those who opposed Rep. Kevin McCarthy as House Speaker, leading to his ousting earlier this year. She later celebrated McCarthy exiting the role, leading to heated tensions between the two GOP lawmakers.
The congresswoman now faces her own controversy that could lead to problems at the ballot box next year.
The anti-McCarthy voice will now have to show she is ready to continue in office despite recent negative reports, fighting back against Democrats and those in her own party opposed to her in 2024. The personal issues could be a big point of discussion as the primaries near in her state of South Carolina where former Gov. Nikki Haley is running for president.
