Ryan Walters Files for Divorce!

7:52 AM EDT on May 12, 2026

Take a seat, grab some popcorn and read a banned library book. The tabloid story of the year in Oklahoma politics is officially here!

On Monday afternoon, we received a tip via the Ogle Mole Network that former Oklahoma State School Superintendent Ryan Walters – the infamous right-wing evangelical culture warrior who made a name for himself in some of the dumbest ways possible – has filed for divorce from his wife, Katie.

According to the divorce filing, which is pretty standard, boring, and lacking in juicy details, Ryan is seeking the divorce on grounds of “irreconcilable incompatibility.” He is also seeking an equitable split of all marital assets and debts, along with joint and equal custody of their four kids.
