An explosive report from The Daily Mail alleges Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had a secret affair with the daughter of a high-ranking Chinese Communist Party (CCP) official during his time as a teacher in China in 1989. This alleged relationship reportedly deepens Walz’s ties to China, already under scrutiny given his history of visits and affiliations with Chinese institutions.
The alleged lover, Jenna Wang, now 59, recounted their relationship in vivid detail, claiming Walz courted her during his teaching stint in Foshan, Guangdong Province, through the nonprofit WorldTeach program. According to Wang, she and Walz shared a private yet passionate relationship, constrained by her father’s political stature within the CCP, which prohibited public displays of affection.
“Tim was very handsome. I loved his eyes and his big mouth,” Wang told The Daily Mail, describing how their romance was concealed due to her father’s powerful CCP position. Despite restrictions, Wang claims they met privately, sharing tea and music, with George Michael’s Careless Whisper becoming their anthem. She recalled her desire to marry Walz and start a family in the U.S., hopes she says Walz ultimately dashed, leaving her heartbroken.

Wang also alleged that Walz’s political and professional ties to China continued well after his teaching stint, with Walz making repeated visits, including as a fellow at Macau Polytechnic University, which maintains strong affiliations with the Chinese government. Walz’s backing of groups like the Hormel Institute, with alleged connections to Wuhan laboratories, has further fueled the House Oversight Committee’s ongoing investigation into his ties to China.
This recent revelation about his past relationship may intensify the scrutiny surrounding Walz’s China connections, adding another layer to what critics argue is a long-standing affinity for a nation often in direct conflict with American interests.
