For the first time since she was hired to join the Trump Administration, Rev. Omarosa Manigault and her fiance, Jacksonville Pastor and Democrat Dr. John Allen Newman, speak with Action News Jax anchor Tenikka Hughes about their relationship, impacting lives in Jacksonville and the criticism they've faced for Manigault's support of President-elect Donald Trump.
They talked about Manigault's conversations with Trump regarding the black community, how she plans to use her role to reach people who feel disconnected from the new administration and what Pastor Newman thinks all Americans should be prepared to do as the new president prepares to take office.
The couple will be attending Trump's inauguration. Watch Part 1 of the couple's interview above and Part 2 below:
