Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor in Donald Trump’s Georgia election interference case, has settled his divorce a day before a crucial hearing where he might have faced questions about an alleged affair.

The divorce agreement, entered on Tuesday, spares Wade from testifying about accusations of an improper romantic relationship with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. The alleged affair also involves claims of using funds earned from the case for lavish vacations.

Trump, along with two co-defendants, seeks to disqualify Willis’ office and dismiss the case, citing the alleged affair and financial ties as a conflict of interest.

The settlement removes the scheduled hearing, and an order by Judge Henry Thompson mentions a “temporary agreement addressing all issues,” with the terms not filed in court.

Wade’s wife’s attorney, Andrea Dyer Hastings, stated that the agreement resolved temporary alimony and attorney’s fees but emphasized that the case is ongoing. Wade was appointed by Willis in November 2021 for the investigation into 2020 election interference.

Allegations against Wade and Willis were raised by former Trump 2020 campaign official Mike Roman in a recent court filing.

Willis and Wade have not publicly responded to these claims, and the Fulton County district attorney’s office has until the week’s end to provide a written response to the allegations in the sprawling racketeering case overseen by Judge Scott McAfee.
