‘I Can Take The Heat, That’s Politics – But Leave My Kids Alone’: Herschel Walker Responds To Critics

Georgia Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker is hitting back at critics who say that he hid two children from the public after several outlets reported the allegations earlier this week.

On Tuesday, The Daily Beast reported that Walker fathered a son 10 years ago and was ordered by a court to provide child support. On Thursday, the same outlet reported that Walker had another son who was not widely known. For his part, Walker denied that categorization.

“I have four children. Three sons and a daughter. They’re not ‘undisclosed’ — they’re my kids,” Walker said in a statement to The Daily Wire.

“I support them all and love them all,” he added. “I’ve never denied my children, I confirmed this when I was appointed to the President’s Council on Sports Fitness and Nutrition, I just chose not to use them as props to win a political campaign. What parent would want their child involved in garbage, gutter politics like this?”
