A Trump aide-turned-congressman has been accused of being a drug user by his wife, according to new legal filings.

Ohio Rep. Max Miller, 35, filed for divorce from wife Emily Moreno, 30, Daily Mail revealed exclusively last week, two years after they married at a lavish ceremony attended by Donald Trump at the former president’s Bedminster golf club.

Now further court filings filed by Miller have laid bare the ugly reasons behind their split just ten months after welcoming their daughter Ruth. 

They show how the daughter of Bernie Moreno, the Donald Trump-endorsed senate candidate who two years ago lost to Democrat Sherrod Brown, has left their home in a posh Cleveland suburb to move into a home her father secretly bought.

She took their daughter and her personal belongings with her, Miller claimed in filings offering his version of the split. 

He wrote how she left in July after claiming he was regularly using drugs and ‘speaking poorly’ of her family, and has refused to let him see his daughter without her in attendance since.

‘[Miller] stated in a new court filing that he filed for divorce last week from Emily Moreno Miller after she abruptly moved into a house she secretly bought,’ the Cleveland Plain Dealer first reported Wednesday.

She reportedly claimed ‘her husband was using drugs and speaking poorly of her family,’ the paper first to report the story wrote, adding Moreno ‘bought a $675,000 house without [Miller’s] knowledge, then abruptly moved there on August 1.’

She left the home in Rocky River with their child, and most of her personal belongings, the paper reported. 

Moreno, the multi-millionaire daughter of car dealer and Republican US Senate nominee Moreno, was said to have moved while her husband was away working, weeks after she was seen attending the RNC to watch her father speak.

While there, she was seen applauding her high-powered dad in the audience, as Miller remained absent.

Moreno has yet to respond to her husband’s filing as of Tuesday, but he used a process server to deliver the documents, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reported.

Miller, meanwhile, further claimed his estranged wife has refused to let him see their only daughter – only allowing him to do so when she is present.

Attorneys also charged that Miller’s wife ‘baselessly claimed’ he would try to abscond with the baby, and that when their client took a drug test that came back negative, his wife and her attorney continued to ‘stonewall’ him.

The Republican went on to brand his spouse’s claims that he could not keep the girl ‘physically safe’ as ‘absolutely absurd, while citing how Moreno left Ruth in his care during her trip to Milwaukee.

He also brought up how when he refused to pay Moreno’s car insurance for a $140,000 Mercedes bought from one of her father’s dealerships, she told him his lawyers would have to speak to hers if they wanted to see their child.

The ultimatum also allegedly consisted of him continuing to pay homeowner association fees for their condo in Washington, DC, attorneys for the former senior advisor to Trump claimed.

The papers were filed exactly two years after Miller married Moreno at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, in a wedding that featured a speech from the former president.   

Miller became a senior advisor to Trump in 2016 when he was just 27, during which time he became romantically involved with ex-Melania spokeswoman and White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham, 12 years his senior.

Their relationship, rumored to have lasted just 18 months, came to an abrupt close in 2021, when Grisham, 48, claimed the then aspiring congressman abused her while they dated, with the unnamed sources telling Politico that he pushed her against a wall during a confrontation at their DC condo in April 2020.

There, Miller allegedly slapped her and threw a dog-toy tennis ball at her and tried to grab her in the elevator when she was trying to leave. He has denied these claims.

In August of last year, Miller voluntarily dismissed a defamation suit he filed against Grisham in the wake of those claims, with a judge dismissing it with prejudice” after each side paid their own court costs.

The lawsuit had maintained Grisham manufactured the claims to harm Miller’s image, and to sell more copies of her memoir, titled ‘I’ll Take Your Questions Now: What I Saw at the Trump White House,’ which published the day she made them.

Shortly after their split, the then 32-year-old who while working for Trump had faced criticism for a lack of experience, got engaged to Moreno – whose father is a Colombian immigrant who made millions as a car dealer in Ohio,

A Democratic donor before pledging allegiance to Trump, he is now running against Brown once again, after losing in 2022. 

In response to his daughter’s divorce, Bernie Moreno’s campaign communications director Reagan McCarthy told DailyMail.com: ‘Bernie is very sad their marriage worked out as it did, but it’s a private family matter and he will not be making any further comments.’

A spokesperson for Miller did not respond to a request for comment. 

Miller and Moreno both grew up in the Cleveland area, he in the affluent Shaker Heights suburb and she in Westlake. 

Miller is an heir of the prominent Forest City Enterprises real estate company and Moreno is the daughter of a luxury auto dealer-turned-Senate candidate.

In 2018, the rising Republican was one of several Trump officials who became the subject of scrutiny for a lack of experience and qualifications, with his LinkedIn page at the time falsely claiming he had been a Marine recruiter who graduated from college in 2011 rather than 2013. 

After the Washington Post brought attention to these inaccuracies, Miller removed the claims and called them a mistake made by a relative. 

He was also one of six people subpoenaed by the January 6 committee to produce documents relating to the rally preceding the attack on the capitol. 

He was deposed in January 2022.
