Ilhan Omar's husband is allegedly set to file for divorce after bombshell claims she was having an affair with her campaign strategist, whose estranged wife claimed in divorce papers that he cheated on her.

Tim Mynett, 38, was accused by his wife Beth, 55, of telling her he was leaving her for Omar, the 37-year-old Democratic congresswoman. But in divorce documents revealed Tuesday by the New York Post, Mynett accused his wife - a high-flying doctor - of trying to 'ruin his career.'

Now Omar's spouse, Ahmed Hirsi - father to her three children - is reportedly reluctantly initiating the end of their marriage, which a source says he declined to in March at the politician's request.

'I’m surprised he hasn’t filed already,' the source told The Post about a 'very confused' Hirsi.

The publication reports the informant has known the couple for 20 years and the insider claimed Omar wanted Hirsi to file the papers instead of herself when they split six months ago but he initially refused.

He has allegedly been staying with friends while Omar has moved into a luxury condo in downtown Minneapolis and their Cedar-Riverside family home has been abandoned.

Their children have been spending time with a grandfather and Hirsi - who is a senior policy aide to a Minneapolis city councilwoman - only stays at the condo when Omar is out of town, the insider claims.

According to the insider the split has been an 'open secret' in their community however, Hirsi feels last week's divorce filing which prompted Omar's campaign strategist to deny having an affair, has made him look a fool.

The Democratic operative has refused repeated requests for comment since DailyMail.com revealed that he was having secretly spending time with Minnesota congresswoman Omar.

Our exclusive reporting was confirmed Tuesday when Mynett's devastated wife Beth filed for divorce – stating her husband had dumped her in April after making a 'shocking declaration of love' for the married US Rep.

Spurned Beth revealed fears that her husband's affair could have been going on for the past year in the nine-page divorce filing.

She also accused Democratic operative Mynett of taking their 13-year-old son to dinner with Omar and inviting the leftist firebrand back to their $900,000 marital home when she was out of town.

But in the new divorce documents, the New York Post reports, Mynett's attorneys say that the affair is part of a 'campaign' by Beth Mynett.

'Since the time of Mr. Mynett's departure from the marital home, Ms. Mynett began a negative campaign against Mr. Mynett, seemingly in an effort to ruin his career and permanently damage his relationship with [his son] and his step-daughter,' the papers said.

He said the marriage was unhappy, that his wife splurged on unnecessary renovations to their Washington D.C. home, and that during a 'rollercoaster of highs and lows,' they had discussed separation or divorce repeatedly.

'By April 2019, after months of unsuccessfully working to convince himself the marriage was salvagable, Mr. Mynett informed Ms. Mynett that he was unable to continue their marriage,' the court papers read, confirming their April 7 split.

'Mr. Mynett denies that he told Ms. Mynett he was leaving the marriage for Representative Ilhan Omar ('Rep. Omar') or that he was in love with her.'

He also denied the claim that he had been traveling for work to pursue an affair with Omar.

Despite being named in the couple's divorce proceedings, Omar similarly continued to dodge questions about her tangled private life as she attended a series of functions this week in Minneapolis.

She also denied being separated from her 39-year-old husband Ahmed Hirsi, telling a reporter from the city's WCCO-TV station: 'I have no interest in allowing the conversation about my personal life to continue and so I have no desire to discuss it.'

DailyMail.com began investigating the rumored affair after married 'Squad' member Omar was seen holding hands with a mystery man at a secluded Italian restaurant outside of Los Angeles back in March.

Insiders soon identified the mystery figure as Mynett, whose company E Street Group has been on Omar's payroll since July 2018, providing fundraising and strategy.

He previous worked as national finance director for former Minnesota congressman Keith Ellison, whose seat Omar took over when he ran for Attorney General.

Federal Election Commission records show Omar's team began paying Mynett's DC-based firm in August of 2018, splashing out $62,500 by the end of 2018.

Payments continued into 2019, with $5,000, $10,000 and $12,000 chunks being shelled out every month, totaling just over $253,000 in a single year.

Mynett has traveled with Omar all over the country in recent months with pictures appearing of them side-by-side in New York City, Austin and Seattle as well as Los Angeles.

Photos show Mynett and Omar are constantly by each other's sides at events, traveling to Los Angeles, New York City, Austin and Seattle together. Mynett has even met Omar's daughter Isra, 16, photographed together on two separate occasions. Pictured: Omar, Mynett and Isra in Los Angeles on July 15

He has even spent time with Omar's daughter Isra, 16, who is a budding activist, as the threesome were photographed together on two separate occasions.

In January, Mynett posted an image on his Instagram of Omar's name plaque outside of her congressional office, writing: 'It's been one hell of a journey. Incredibly proud of this fearless woman.'

Last month DailyMailTV broke the news that she had split from her husband Ahmed Hirsi, the father of her three children, and moved into a luxury penthouse apartment in the Mill District of Minneapolis.

It was the second time that Hirsi and Omar had separated after she originally left him to marry another man, Ahmed Elmi.

Omar has been accused of going into that marriage solely to allow Elmi - a British citizen - to enter the United States where he studied at North Dakota State University.

Political enemies have even claimed that Elmi is in fact her brother, an accusation that Omar has refused to discuss.

Mynett, meanwhile, left his marital home after dumping Beth and now lives at a luxury residential complex in DC's trendy Petworth neighborhood where a two-bedroom apartment costs around $3,000 a month.

When DailyMail.com first approached him there he refused to confirm his identity, puffing on a cigarette and saying: 'This is bizarre, I don't know what you're talking about.'

When we spoke with him a second time as he pulled up in his car, Mynett told our reporter: 'No comment.'

His rental pad is about a ten-minute drive from where he previously lived with wife Beth, 17 years his elder, their young son and Beth's daughter from a previous marriage.

Beth, who is medical director for the D.C. Department of Corrections, also declined to comment further on her divorce earlier this month, telling DailyMail.com: 'I have nothing further to say'.

But her divorce filing describes how Mynett left her heartbroken when he announced he was 'romantically involved with and in love with another woman, Ilhan Omar'.

'Although devastated by the betrayal and deceit that preceded his abrupt declaration, Plaintiff told Defendant that she loved him and was willing to fight for the marriage,' the divorce filing states.

'Defendant, however told her that was not an option for him. He provided no other explanation for his sudden change of heart.'

Beth's filing suggests Mynett had recently only had 'sporadic' involvement with the couple's 13-year-old son because of his frequent work assignments with Omar.

'On reflection defendant's more recent travel and long work hours now appear to be more related his affair with Rep. Omar that his actual work commitments, averaging 12 days a month away from home over the past year,' it further alleges.

Beth also attacks her husband's judgment for taking their young son to formally meet Omar for dinner at the family's favorite neighborhood restaurant in DC while she was out of town.

A conservative watchdog group filed a complaint against Omar with the FEC, accusing her of illegally using her campaign funds to fund her affair with Mynett. The Minnesota congresswoman has paid Mynett more than $250K in consulting fees and travel within a year, with around $21.5K on travel expenses

Payments continued into 2019, with big chunks of $5,000, $10,000 and $12,000 being shelled out every month, totaling just over $253,000 in a single year

'Most concerning is that defendant put his son in harm's way by taking him out in public with Rep. Omar who at the time had garnered a plethora of media attention along with death threats, one rising to the level of arresting the known would be assassin that same week.'

That appears to be a reference to a New York man arrested by federal agents in April for threatening to 'put a bullet in [Omar's] fucking skull.'

Beth says she was not only a 'devoted' wife but was the primary breadwinner throughout their marriage, complaining that Mynett dumped her and left the marital home just as he stood to make substantially more income through his growing firm.

She also claims that Mynett has a 'history of emotional instability that can cause him to become easily angered and rageful'.

Beth says he threatened to 'malign her', damage her career' and stop financially supporting her if she took him to court, adding: 'Defendant's bullying tactics are disappointing but not surprising.'

The estranged wife wants primary custody of their son, child support and full ownership of their three-bed marital family home in northern DC, worth $900,000.

Mynett runs E Street Group with fellow veteran strategist William Hailer from a shared WeWork office space in DC.

Their website currently has a single accessible page displaying the message: 'Accepting new clients by referral only.'

But an archived version accessed by DailyMail.com includes a lengthy 'about us' section where Mynett reels off his career accomplishments and boats of close ties with 'national opinion leaders'.
