After 12 years of marriage, Rep. Rich McCormick (R-GA) is calling it quits with his oncologist wife Dr. Debra Miller amid rumors he's been canoodling with a fellow lawmaker, according to The Daily Mail.
"I'm sure that he will not be forthcoming," Miller wrote in a text to the outlet.
Pressed about whether their fracture involved philandering, Miller responded: "You should ask Rich and his colleague."

A McCormick spokesperson responded to The Daily Mail's query suggesting the couple had already been living apart for a spell before making it official.
"Congressman McCormick and Dr. Miller have been separated for quite some time. He has kept that private and will continue to keep his personal life out of the media spotlight," the statement reads.
It was McCormick who filed for divorce on May 3, according to The Mail. The outlet also reported that the couple sought a mutual restraining order.
Miller is McCormick's second wife and the pair is raising seven children from their Suwanee, Georgia, abode.
The outlet learned from various Capitol Hill insiders claiming McCormick has been "holding hands under the table" with a female House Republican at the weekly Republican Study Committee lunch over a span of the last three to four months.
The two-decade Marine Corps and the Navy veteran and former E.R. doctor was also seen grabbing "the small of her back" on the House floor during various votes.
Two eyewitnesses say they have seen he and the colleague holding hands, with one witnessing it as the pair was leaving votes.
Another witness saw McCormick locking arms with the mystery lawmaker while stepping out of the Longworth Office building one late night.
McCormick was accused by fellow Georgia congresswoman Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of grabbing her shoulders and shaking her in a private meeting with House Speaker Mike Johnson back in December after the two disagreed over a censure resolution targeting Michigan Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib.
"I understand why there would be a lot of raw emotions following the censure vote given that her censure was tabled and mine passed," he said at the time, denying he became physically aggressive. "My intention was to encourage Rep. Greene by making a friendly gesture."
