Huma Abedin, the longtime aide to former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, has moved on from her tumultuous past with her ex-husband, Anthony Weiner. In a social media post on Valentine’s Day, she shared a photo of herself cozying up to Alex Soros, the son of influential philanthropist and billionaire George Soros.

The Instagram photo, originally posted by Soros, shows the couple snuggled together in a romantic booth adorned with rose petals at a restaurant in Paris. A lively sticker hat wished “Happy Valentine’s Day” hovered atop the image.

Abedin is 47 years old and nearly a decade older than her new boyfriend.

Abedin and Weiner, known for a series of high-profile scandals, ended their marriage seven years ago. Weiner gained national attention in 2011 when he inadvertently tweeted a link to an explicit photo of himself. Although he initially denied any involvement, he eventually admitted he engaged in explicit exchanges with multiple women over several years.

In a subsequent scandal, Weiner was caught in a second sexting controversy while running for mayor of New York City. It was revealed that he had exchanged additional messages with a woman under the pseudonym “Carlos Danger.”

The scandals did not end there, as Weiner found himself embroiled in yet another sexting scandal in 2016. Accusations arose that he had exchanged messages with a 15-year-old girl from North Carolina. He pleaded guilty to transferring obscene material to a minor and served a prison sentence of just over a year.

Abedin and Weiner parted ways after the third scandal. In an interview with The Guardian in 2021, Abedin described her ex-husband’s actions as heart-wrenching and stated that he had repeatedly shattered her trust.

In June 2022, reports emerged that Abedin was dating actor Bradley Cooper while she finalized her divorce proceedings.

A year later, Alex Soros assumed control of his father’s vast business and philanthropic empire, valued at $25 million.
