Donald Trump, who soon will be sworn in as the next U.S. President, has named controversial politician and lawyer Matt Gaetz as his pick for attorney general. As Trump’s announcement has drawn considerable criticism from politicians, people have become curious about Gaetz’s personal life, wife, and family.
Who is Matt Gaetz married to?
Gaetz is married to Ginger Luckey, a Philippian-American. She is the sister of Palmer Luckey, an influential Republican donor and the founder of Oculus VR.
Ginger Luckey attended the Harvard Business School Online and earned a Bachelor’s degree in economics and accounting from the University of California, Santa Barbara. As per her LinkedIn profile, Luckey has also attended the University of California, Berkeley, Haas, School of Business and Corporate Finance Institute.
Notably, Gaetz served as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Florida’s 1st district. He resigned from the position in 2024. Gaetz’s father, Don Gaetz, is also an accomplished politician and previously served as a member of the Florida State Senate. However, despite the prominence her husband’s family has in Florida, Luckey purportedly still resides in California, where she is originally from.
What is Ginger Luckey’s job?
According to Luckey’s LinkedIn profile, she has previously worked as a sailing coach at CFJ Racing and as a tax intern at PwC. She was employed at Apeel Sciences, an agricultural services company based out of California before joining KPMG US, a professional services firm, where she currently holds a managerial position. Further, in a late 2020 article, Daily Mail referred to her as a “food analyst from Santa Barbara, California.”

Gaetz and Luckey crossed paths at an event held at the Mar-a-Lago resort in March 2020. Shortly afterward, they decided to go to Kimberly Guilfoyle’s event together. The couple announced their engagement in December 2020 and tied the wedding knot in August 2021.
