Candace Amber Owens Farmer, shortly Candace Ownes, is a renowned activist, conservative author, political commentator, and talk show host.

Ownes faced racism from a young age and dropped out of university, but that didn't stop her from establishing a career through which she, now, can raise her voice against any kind of discrimination.

On her wedding, she reportedly wore three gowns, whereas her guests donned red 'Make Weddings Great Again' hats at the reception. Her guests included radio host Larry Elder, actor Jon Voight, entrepreneur Charlie Kirk, and Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage.

Her wedding was held at Trump Winery, near Charlottesville, United States.

Interestingly, the couple had previously got engaged over a FaceTime call after just two-and-a-half weeks of dating. The two first met earlier in February [the same year] at the launch of a right-wing student group in the UK.

Ownes and Farmer gave birth to a son on January 13, 2021. Confirming the birth of her first child through Twitter, the conservative author wrote, "It’s true what they say— the whole world stops when your child is born. 1/13/21 My first born son."

The couple has, however, been secretive about their baby's name.

In May 2021, Farmer was announced as the new chief executive of the social media app Parler after the service returned to Apple’s App Store. The network was removed from Apple App Store previously following the deadly US Capitol riot.

Ownes' Lesbian Controversy

The political commentator uploaded a video titled 'Mom, Dad....I'm a Conservative' on YouTube on July 9, 2017, stating that she was lesbian and liked girls.

The statement became the news of the hour, and many started passing comments about her through social media.

But later, Ownes took to Twitter to clarify that she was not lesbian in real. She explained that she made such statements in the video to make a point about how being a conservative was the new gay.
