Love in the World of Politics: Famous Politicians and Their Better Halves

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Riley Roberts – Unknown

Famous in the political circle by her initials AOC, Alexandria served as New York’s representative at the 14th congressional district. She has been doing so since 2019 and has been at the top of her job.

Alexandria is one of the prominent Democrats who has attracted national attention. She took the oath of office when she was just 29. That makes her the youngest woman to serve in the history of the U.S. Congress. Many might not know that before starting her political career, she was an activist and tried several professions.

Alexandria loves to keep her personal life low-key, but sources reveal that she is going steady with a web-developer boyfriend named Riley Roberts. Riley is the marketing head at HomeBinder.com. Though we don’t know when these two will plan to settle down, we hope the wedding bells will ring soon.

Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton – Together Since 1971

Arguably one of the best couples that the US has seen, Bill and Hillary have put up with each other and their holy matrimony for about 50 years! That’s almost the same time they devoted themselves to national politics and global affairs. Bill had served as the governor of Arkansas before becoming the president of the Democratic Party, from 1993 to 2001.

Apart from his political contributions, Bill was actively involved with the William J. Clinton Foundation to address vital causes like AIDS prevention and global warming, from an international standpoint. His autobiography My Life that was published in 2004 also created ripples.

Once the first lady of the US, Hillary and Bill met each other in 1971 when they studied at Yale Law School. Hillary had also worked as a senator from 2001 to 2009. She was the first woman to win the very popular vote in the American presidential election in 2016.

Jen Psaki and Gregory Mecher – Together Since 2010

Jen Psaki is an American political advisor who has been serving the role of 34th White House press secretary. Her personal life is as eventful as her professional life. She walked down the aisle in 2010 with Gregory Mecher.

The couple, however, met a few years before that in 2006. Mecher is a Democratic political aide. He began his career armed with a degree in communications and television production. Psaki has been supporting her husband for more than a decade now and praises her husband. The best part of him is, Psaki states that he is very comfortable in his skin.

The duo met when they worked in the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. Mecher fell in love with his wife when she gave him the wrong directions to a political event in 2006 over the phone. Mesher hilariously states that direction is certainly not one of her strong points. We love the cute camaraderie.
