Do Herschel Walker and Julie Blanchard have kids together?

Walker and Blanchard do not have any children together.

Walker, however, has three sons and one daughter.

He has one son, social media star Christian Walker, with his first wife. The rest of his children are reportedly with other women.

“I have four children. Three sons and a daughter. They’re not ‘undisclosed’ — they’re my kids. I support them all and love them all,” Walker told The Daily Beast.

“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?”

Why was Julie Blanchard under investigation?

On August 19, 2021, it was reported by The Associated Press that Blanchard was under investigation for voting in Georgia during the 2020 presidential election while residing in Texas.

Per The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, it is "illegal for non-residents to vote in Georgia in most circumstances.' However, Blanchard considers herself a resident of the state because she has a Georgia driver’s license, owns a car, and does business there.

“It is standard practice for the secretary of state’s office to open an initial investigation into complaints,” Deputy Secretary of State Jordan Fuchs said in a statement.

“That is a policy the Secretary put in place upon taking office, and upon his approval, this particular investigation was approved to move forward into a full investigation.”

The Associated Press reported that one of the 15 rules Georgia uses to determine where a voter lives is based on homestead exemption.

According to Georgia records, Blanchard does not currently claim a homestead exemption on her Georgia property; prior to the 2020 election, she hadn't voted in the state since 2008.

In 2017, her voter registration was canceled because of her inactivity and she had to re-register in 2019.
