Conservative provocateur and Fox News host Megyn Kelly claims Kristi Noemher husband, Bryon Noem“tried” to complete a rehab program for alleged sex addiction before the so-called “bimbofication” scandal.
“I can report that he was there – he sent a message – I was told by a reliable source and I sent messages that were given to me by my source, who I believe, tried a 12-step program for sexual recovery,” Kelly, 55, said on the Friday, April 10, episode of her podcast “The Megyn Kelly Show.”
“It was a place called Pure Desire,” Kelly continued. He wrote: “And it includes 12 steps. We looked that up to see if that place is a known recovery site in South Dakota and we found out, like a ministry.”
According to Pure Desire Ministries’ website, the program is described as a Christian men’s recovery program, offering one-on-one groups to help those “struggling with pornography, sex addiction and compulsive sexual behavior, who want to regain integrity in their sex life.”
Kelly also shared a screenshot of a message allegedly between Homeland Security’s husband and another woman, in which Bryon was allegedly discussing his treatment.
“I am entering a treatment program,” the text allegedly read. “Too much needed and too late. 40 days. I appreciate the conversations we had to get to know each other better. You seem like a good person. I’m a work in progress!”

In late March, reports surfaced that Bryon was participating in online forums while occasionally wearing hot pink pants and fake breasts as part of a so-called “bimbofication”. Kristi’s husband allegedly paid $25,000 to chat online with online models in the “bimbofication” scene, where women use silicone injections and surgical enhancements to look like dolls.
Kristi, who lives with daughters Kassidy and Kennedy and sons Booker and Bryon, responded to the claims in a written statement through her publicist.
“Mrs. Noem is devastated,” the spokesperson said The New York Post on March 31. “The family is not aware of this, and is asking for privacy and prayers at this time.”
The president Donald Trumpwho fired Kristi as secretary of Homeland Security on March 5, also responded to these allegations.
“Did they confirm it? Wow, well, I feel bad for the family if that’s the case,” said Trump, 79, to the newspaper. Daily Mail on March 31. “I haven’t seen anything. I don’t know anything about it. That’s too bad, but I don’t know anything about it.”
Many women have accused Donald Trump of sexual misconduct following the leak of his 2005 tape, in which he made inappropriate comments and bragged about sexually assaulting women — here’s a complete list of those who came forward, and how Trump and/or his campaign responded.
Friday, the Daily Mail published an interview with Bryon’s allegations, Shame on you Sotomayorwho said that Bryon is willing to leave Kristi to have a relationship with her.
“He really liked a confident woman,” Sotomayor said. “I don’t accept people who talk about virgins, people who are abusive, I expect to be worshipped, not to be humiliated.”
Us Weekly reached out to both Bryon and Kristi for comment.
