It was also alleged the pair had benefited financially from taxpayers&#8217; money.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Willis and Wade later admitted they had a relationship but denied a conflict of interest. The timeline of their relationship has emerged as a key point of contention, and Roman has said it started earlier than they admitted.

This is much ado about nothing. Fani needs to step down so they can move on.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The filing, by David Shafer, a Trump co-defendant who, like Roman, has argued Willis should be removed from the case, said that Yaeger claimed on Friday that Bradley had in the past told her that Wade and Willis met and started their romantic relationship in 2019 and Willis had told Bradley to keep it quiet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fani Willis The fate of\u00a0Fani Willis\u00a0has been called into question once again after a Georgia prosecutor offered to testify against her, claiming another witnesses&#8217; testimony about her relationship with Nathan Wade was wrong.
