Huma, 45, is a political aide, who worked as a personal advisor on the 2016 presidential election campaign of former US senator, Secretary of State and presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton. Huma reportedly serves as her chief of staff, at present. An excerpt of Huma’s Instagram bio read, “Lucky mom, grateful Democrat, lover of fiction, devourer of French fries and ice cream.” She often shares posts of her attending various events with Hillary.

According to a report on thealtweb.com, Huma was born on July 28, 1976, to a Saudi Arabian immigrant family in Michigan, US, and has Indian and Pakistani ancestry. Her overall net worth is said to be at around $4 million as of 2022, the report added. Huma was married to former US politician Anthony Weiner until 2016. He is now a convicted sex offender.

In a recent interview with People, Huma spoke about her relationship with her ex-husband.

“Anthony is always going to be in my life because he is the father of my child. I want to make sure he’s healthy, that we are in a healthy relationship, that our son sees model behaviour that is healthy for him,” Huma told the magazine in a 2021 interview. In another interview with The Cut in 2021, Huma opened up about the challenges of ending her relationship with Anthony, and shared that ‘in hindsight’, she was ‘in extreme trauma’ during their fallout.

According to a new report in Page Six, Huma and Bradley, 47, have been dating for a few months. They were reportedly introduced by their mutual friend, Anna Wintour.
