UNCOVERED: Gabe Vasquez’s Fake Wedding?!
Hello –
In a story no one saw coming, Gabe Vasquez told the Daily Mail he had a fake wedding in Mexico years ago.
According to the Daily Mail, “what appeared to be a splashy wedding never actually resulted in a legal marriage, and that Vasquez is now engaged to another woman who has deep ties to Democratic political circles.”
This fake wedding cost tens of thousands of dollars (possibly up to $90,000).
His family attended, the “bride” wore a beautiful dress, the venue looked gorgeous, and it even looks like there was a FAKE MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE.
It gets even crazier.
The woman he “married” is no longer in the picture.
Now, he has a new fiancé, and the circumstances around their relationship are shady too…
His current fiancée, Nikki Santos, is “a divorced Biden-era political appointee who previously worked at the Center for Native American Youth, a project of the Aspen Institute.”
Their relationship timeline, according to Daily Mail, is “significant,” as her divorce proceedings show she wasn’t separated from her ex-husband before meeting Gabe.
Gabe Vasquez has some explaining to do…

Gabe Vasquez, a second-term New Mexico congressman, has tried to keep his personal life away from prying eyes in the nation’s capital.
Now the Daily Mail can reveal that what appeared to be a splashy wedding never actually resulted in a legal marriage, and that Vasquez is now engaged to another woman who has deep ties to Democratic political circles.
…
In September 2018, the pair held a lavish ceremony at the Akiin Beach Tulum Weddings venue in Mexico, where events cost between $30,000 and $90,000.
Friends and family attended and shared photos on social media under the hashtag #OnCloudVasquez – but it was not long before the pair separated.
Despite pictures of the seemingly happy couple dressed in a suit and white dress still being up online, including one of them holding up what appears to be a marriage license, no legal records of marriage or divorce between the two exist.

Santos appeared on Vasquez’s 2023 FEC report, reimbursed for a rental car, and features in Federal Election Commission records linked to a $300 campaign dinner in Washington.
By Thanksgiving 2021, she had already appeared alongside Vasquez in a family Instagram post captioned ‘Time well spent with family.’
The timeline is significant. In divorce proceedings, Santos claimed she and ex-husband Joshua Pitre separated on December 22, 2021 – a date Pitre disputed, placing their separation on January 2, 2022.
