The bitter divorce battle between Trump ally Max Miller and his ex-wife has exploded into a full-blown legal and police drama with authorities now investigating how their two-year-old daughter suffered a broken collarbone.

According to court documents, Miller, who has represented Ohio in Congress since 2023 and previously served as an aide to Donald Trump, filed for divorce from Emily Moreno in August 2024, ending their two-year marriage just months after the birth of their daughter, Ruth.

Under an initial agreement, the former couple shared joint custody, with Miller ordered to pay $2,500 a month in child support, but by early March, Moreno moved to upend that arrangement, filing explosive claims about Miller's conduct.

In court filings, she alleged that he 'regularly speaks to me in an inappropriate, aggressive and demeaning manner,' adding that such behavior was 'not in the best interest of our child.' 

She further claimed that Miller had engaged in 'dangerous physical behavior in the child's presence,' and warned that continued joint decision-making could 'cause direct harm' to their daughter. 

Miller then fired back asking the court to order psychological evaluations for both parents while accusing Moreno of becoming 'increasingly confrontational, irrational and somewhat bizarre.' 

He also alleged that she had made 'repeated and unsubstantiated allegations of abuse' to both local police and child welfare authorities.

But days later, the dispute took a far darker turn.

In a March 13 court declaration, Miller revealed how their young daughter had suffered a broken collarbone and a bruised shoulder. 

The injuries triggered an investigation by child protective services and police.

He said he was 'apparently cleared' following that probe, which included checks on basic safety measures such as proper installation of a child car seat.

But Moreno disputes that account entirely.

She maintains the injury occurred while the child was in Miller's care and has 'unequivocally' stood by her claims - including an allegation that Miller became physical with her during a custody exchange.

Police in Bay Village, Ohio, have confirmed there is an active investigation into 'suspected child abuse,' although no conclusions have been publicly announced.

The legal war between the two has since descended into a barrage of sharply worded accusations from both sides' attorneys.

Moreno's lawyer, Andrew Zashin, told TMZ that Miller's claims were baseless, saying his 'entirely false allegations against his ex-wife concerning their daughter were thrown out of court.' 

He added, 'These baseless claims are nothing more than a cynical attempt by Mr. Miller to weaponize the legal system against his ex-wife, a strong, loving mother who refuses to submit to his coercive control.'

Zashin went further alleging, 'Mr. Miller lives off a trust fund and has a well-documented history of using his wealth, lawyers, and the courts to bully his enemies. Ms. Moreno will not be intimidated or silenced. She is fighting back aggressively and has already prevailed.'

In one particularly biting remark he stated, 'If Mr. Miller is looking for an individual with abusive behavior, he should look in the mirror and past the veneers.'

Miller's legal team has categorically rejected those claims.

In a statement his attorney said, 'The only person who has been granted a restraining order by a court of law is Rep Max Miller. The evidence brought against his ex-wife Ms Moreno was enough to convince a judge that she was a threat to the Congressman.'

The statement also alleged that two abuse claims made to child protective services were false - including one incident that was ultimately attributed to a daycare worker after video evidence emerged.

'These allegations are false, and neither Ms. Moreno, nor anyone else, has been able to bring forward any evidence against Congressman Miller,' his attorney added, before accusing Moreno of using media attention to target him politically.

The collapse of their marriage has been as dramatic as its beginnings were high-profile.

The couple married in August 2022 at Trump's Bedminster golf club in New Jersey, with the president himself attending and praising Miller, one of his favored former aides. 

Moreno is the daughter of Bernie Moreno, a prominent Republican figure, further elevating the couple's political profile.

They welcomed their daughter less than a year later, with Miller at the time calling her birth a reminder of the 'importance of family.'

But by mid-2024, the relationship had unraveled.

Court filings show Moreno left the family home and moved into a separate property with their child, while Miller accused her of making claims about drug use that he has denied. 

He also alleged she restricted his access to their daughter, while her legal team countered with claims about his behavior and parenting.

The case has been further complicated by a history of past allegations involving Miller's previous relationship with former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham, who also accused him of abuse - claims he has denied and previously fought in court.
