ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A Florida family judge will hear Rep. Alan Grayson’s charge that his wife committed bigamy and decide whether their 24-year marriage should be annulled.
A trial on whether the marriage was legitimate opens Monday in an Orlando courtroom.
Grayson says his wife, Lolita, was still married to another man when she and the multimillionaire congressman married in 1990 in Virginia. But Lolita Grayson says she divorced Robert Carson in 1981 in Guam.
Besides the bigamy allegation, the lead-up to Monday’s trial includes accusations by Lolita Grayson that her estranged husband pushed her and that he has failed to maintain their Orlando house and support their children. There was also a delay caused by Lolita Grayson’s leaky breast implant, and she has had a revolving door of attorneys.

“Multimillionaire Congressman …” That headline sucks. Multimillionaire has nothing to do with the news article. Zero. Nothing. Pure tabloid clickbait and I fell for it.
Correct. I wouldn’t have clicked, but Alan Grayson is always…interesting. He’s one of those people that are difficult. He fights for progressive causes, but you can see the crazy leaking out from him. Maybe it’s just the Florida leaking out of him. It’s pretty much the same thing.
More and more, it’s Anthony Weiner again. A progressive warrior with a huge load of crap in the background. This just sounds really disgusting. If he wants to dump her for some 20 YO chippie, give her a decent settlement, instead of this low-rent crap.
How well does getting a marriage annulled play out? When you have children!
Annulment = No alimony
