Trump-backed Tennessee candidate, 58, calls unsolicited nude photos sent AT 53 'youthful indiscretions' and says his wife has forgiven him

Brent Taylor, a 58-year-old Tennessee Republican state senator running for Congress with Trump's endorsement, admitted sending unsolicited nude photos to multiple people — including one sent in 2021, when he was 53 — after the Nashville Scene confronted him with multiple sources who had received or seen the images. Taylor told the outlet his wife Kimberly, to whom he has been married over 30 years, is fully aware and has forgiven him, as has God.

Taylor, who publicly presents as a conservative Christian husband and father, called himself 'guilty of being a rounder, back in the day.'

Democratic opponent Justin Pearson called it 'predatory behaviour' and said 'career politicians like him have been abusing their power and getting away with it for far too long.'

Trump endorsed Taylor in July, calling him a 'Highly Respected State Senator' who would 'NEVER LET YOU DOWN.'
