The woman said that Walker reimbursed her $700 for the $575 procedure because she said she had estimated an additional $125 for \u201ctravel and recovery costs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The woman claims that she came forward because of Walker\u2019s stance against abortion. The woman provided a purported copy of a check Walker allegedly wrote to cover the costs as well as a personal note.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just can\u2019t with the hypocrisy anymore,\u201d the anonymous woman claimed. \u201cWe all deserve better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Robert Ingram, a lawyer representing both the campaign and Walker in his personal capacity, told the publication that the story was \u201cfalse\u201d and that all the publication does \u201cis run with stories to target Black conservatives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a flat-out lie \u2014 and I deny this in the strongest possible terms,\u201d Walker said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HerschelWalker\/status\/1577075271470964737\">statement<\/a>. \u201cThis is another repugnant hatchet job from a Democrat activist disguised as a reporter who has obsessively attacked my family and tried to tear me down since this race started. He\u2019s harassed friends of mine, asking if I fathered their children. He\u2019s called my children \u2018secret\u2019 because I didn\u2019t want to use them as campaign props in a political campaign. Now, they\u2019re using an anonymous source to further slander me. They will do anything to hold onto power. It\u2019s disgusting, gutter politics. I\u2019m not taking this anymore. I planning to sue the Daily Beast for this defamatory lie. It will be filed tomorrow morning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In an unexpected turn of events, Walker\u2019s son, Christian Walker, attacked his father publicly on social media after having repeatedly shown support for his father and his father\u2019s campaign online.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery family member of Herschel Walker asked him not to run for office, because we all knew (some of) his past,\u201d the conservative social media influencer <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChristianWalk1r\/status\/1577101530586484736\">claimed<\/a>. \u201cEvery single one.
