Christian Walker, the son of Georgia GOP Senate candidate Herschel Walker, has fired off the latest attack on his father amid allegations that he paid for a woman to have an abortion after the pair conceived a child while dating in 2009.
Herschel Walker has continued to deny the reports, arguing he doesn’t know the woman who says she was paid to have the procedure. However, the woman fired back, telling the Daily Beast on Wednesday that the pair had another child together, prompting Christian Walker to offer his latest criticism toward his father.
WOMAN FIRES BACK AT HERSCHEL WALKER, CLAIMS SHE IS MOTHER OF ONE OF HIS CHILDREN
“Wear a condom, damn,” Christian Walker said in a tweet.
Christian Walker has unleashed a number of tweets to his thousands of followers in the days following the initial report, accusing his father of “lying and making a mockery” of him and his mother.
Herschel Walker, who hopes to unseat Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) in November, denied the report and has vowed to sue the Daily Beast, which originally published the abortion story. Although the outlet did not name the woman, it reported that Herschel Walker knew her despite his claims that he didn’t.
This prompted the woman, still under anonymity, to speak with the outlet again, claiming she is the mother of one of Herschel Walker’s three sons who he has previously acknowledged having out of wedlock.
The woman cast doubt on the authenticity of Walker’s beliefs, saying he was privately pro-abortion rights and not an especially devout Christian despite the frequent public invocations of his faith. Walker has said during his campaign that he supports a ban on abortion with no exceptions.

“I don’t think there’s anywhere in the Bible where it says, ‘Have four kids with four different women while you’re with another woman.’ Or where it praises not being a present parent,” the woman told the outlet. “Or that an abortion is an OK thing to do when it’s not the right time for you but a terrible thing for anyone else to do when you are running for Senate. He picks and chooses where it’s convenient for him to use that religious crutch.”
The recent allegations threaten to derail Walker’s bid against Warnock, who barely leads the Republican in the polls. Recent polling found Warnock leading Walker 47% to 46.3%, according to RealClearPolitics.
