Wife of Infowars founder Alex Jones files emergency restraining order as divorce battle is revealed

Alex Jones’ second wife has asked for a temporary restraining order against the InfoWars founder as the couple are set to divorce.

Emily Wulff Jones, 46, has been married to Jones since 2017 and has one child with the well known conspiracy theorist. 

A divorce petition was submitted in Texas, where Jones is from and operates InfoWars, on September 9, 2024, according to Page Six. 

On March 12, Wulff submitted for an emergency restraining order against her estranged husband.

Last Friday, a motion was filed in court to seal all records involved with the divorce case.

Jones and Wulff Jones have yet to comment on the matter.

The couple have had issues in the past, with Wulff Jones being arrested in 2021  for Domestic Violence on Christmas Eve. 

According to an affidavit obtained by The Daily Beast, Jones called 911 and said that Wulff Jones had hit him in the head several times and had been trying to hit him with a polished club. 

‘Erika had hit him with both closed fists and open hands on his head in front of their child,’ the affidavit stated. 

He claimed that Erika struck him ‘over 20 times’ after she’d accused him of cheating on her.

At one point, Jones stated that he was in ‘fear for his life.’

Erika – whom an officer claimed had ‘a strong odor of alcohol’ on her breath – denied she’d threatened or assaulted her husband and said he was angry the angry one.

Jones initially declined to say whether he’d been injured or elaborate on what happened beyond that he believes it was related to his wife’s recent change of medication.

‘It’s a private family matter that happened on Christmas Eve,’ Jones told The Associated Press in a brief interview. 

‘I love my wife and care about her and it appears to be some kind of medication imbalance.’

After spending Christmas in custody, Erika was released on December 26 on $3,000 for each of the two charges.

On a broadcast the following Monday, Jones said: ‘So that’s what happens when someone has a chemical imbalance after surgery and the medication they had mixes together and they literally go to cuckoo world, cloud cuckoo.’ 

By next August, the couple were expressing public affection in Omaha, Nebraska, where Wulff Jones’ family lives.  

The commentator was previously married and had three children with Kelly Nichols, who claims the conservative conspiracy theorist is ‘mentally ill’ and needs to be ‘protected from himself and others.’

The split comes at what has been a dark time for Jones and the entire InfoWars operation.

Jones is in the middle of a desperate last-ditch effort to save his platform from a bankruptcy auction.

First United American Companies, which runs a website in Jones’ names that sells nutritional supplements, submitted an offer of more than $7million to buy the website, an attorney overseeing Jones’ bankruptcy told a judge at a brief hearing in Houston on Monday.

The figure is more than double what the company proposed during a closed-bid auction in November, when it lost to The Onion satirical news outlet, which offered $1.75million in addition to an agreement with the families of victims from the 2012 Sandy Hook massacre.

Global Tetrahedron, the parent company of The Onion, said the agreement would decrease the overall amount of debt Jones owed to the families – after he was ordered to pay nearly $1.5billion in defamation lawsuits from Connecticut and Texas filed by relatives of victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.

It also planned to kick Jones out and relaunch Infowars in January as a parody, while First United American Companies was expected to let Jones stay on at Infowars.

Christopher Murray, the bankruptcy trustee in charge of selling Jones’ assets, valued Global Tetrahedron’s bid at $7million, according to the Houston Chronicle.

But US Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez later halted the sale to The Onion, saying the bidding process was flawed, not transparent and didn’t raise enough money for creditors. He also said there was too much confusion about The Onion’s bid and its actual value. 

Now, Joshua Wolfshohl, an attorney representing Murray, said he expects to receive another bid from Global Tetrahedron to further compete with First United American Companies.

In Marc, a reporter for InfoWars was brutally murdered outside his south Austin apartment.

Jamie White was found mortally wounded outside his home on Douglas Street around midnight in a slaying that Jones blamed on Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza.

Officers from Austin Police Department responded to 911 calls reporting a man with ‘obvious signs of trauma.’ 

White was rushed to a nearby hospital where he later died from his injuries.

Police have called the incident a homicide but have not identified any suspects. The slaying had been investigated as a shooting/stabbing but authorities have not released additional information. 

In a fiery and emotional video, Jones did not hold back in assigning blame, squarely targeting the district attorney. 

‘I lay all of this squarely at the feet of Soros and of the sort of crime syndicate of the Democratic Party. They are the ones that administratively cut the police, prosecuted the police, and even cases that are hundred percent clear to be lawful, legal activities,’ Jones ranted.

‘You murdered Jamie White, you opened the door, you created the climate, you created conditions on purpose. George Soros. Alexander Soros, you murdered Jamie White.’ 

‘These are sick, degenerate, evil people that know what they’re doing and they aided and abetted. They are accomplices to the murder of a great American and Infowars long time veteran reporter Jamie White.’ 

InfoWars, founded by Jones, has been embroiled in controversy for years over its inflammatory far-right content and conspiracy theories.
