Former Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin has been barred from his Anchorage mansion after his estranged wife claimed he has been harassing her, and entering the residence without permission amid their ongoing divorce case.

In a motion later granted by Jefferson County Family Court Judge Angela Johnson, Glenna Bevin said though she and the former governor have been living separately since late 2021, Matt Bevin continually drops by her Anchorage residence without notice several times a week.

During these visits, Glenna Bevin alleges that Matt Bevin tries to speak with her about the divorce case without legal counsel present and will follow her "from room to room and even into the bathroom or my bedroom" when she tries to walk away.

Matt Bevin has now requested the court to seal his divorce case from public access to prohibit media attention and public discourse due to his status as the former Kentucky governor.

Bevin, a Republican, was elected governor of Kentucky in 2015, serving one term in office. He was defeated in his 2019 bid for reelection by Andy Beshear.

1. Braindead Republican thought it was a good idea

To run on cutting teachers pay and killing off teachers pensions. How did that work out for you, Bonehead?

2. She tries to 'walk away'?

Maybe a chair broken over his head might dissuade him?

Hopefully the restraining order keeps him out of the 'mansion' - what an asshole. Oh yeah, and don't seal the divorce - what's he trying to hide?

5. I don't think KY law allows a gov to beat a former gov, but I'd donate a nice chunk of hickory.

Bevin was a 1-term governor. Thankfully, my fellow Kentuckians have voted Beshear in twice.
