Ron DeSantis is the governor of Florida and a rising figure in the Republican party. He has recently been in the news because of his clashes with Donald Trump. He is also in the run for the presidential nomination of 2024 and is directly confronting Trump. Here is a closer look at the family of DeSantis.
Ron DeSantis Parents:
Ron DeSantis was born in Jacksonville, Florida on September 14, 1978. Both of his parents, Karen and Ronald DeSantis, are native New Yorkers. His father was a television producer, while his mother was a nurse.
In addition to all this, the DeSantis family has been heavily politically involved. Ronald DeSantis Sr., his father, was a New York Times employee and a US Navy veteran. In addition, he held the office of mayor in Long Island City, New York. Karen DeSantis, the mother of Ron DeSantis, has held both nursing and political activism positions. She has been active in a number of conservative causes, such as the Tea Party.

Her demise was determined to be due to natural causes. Before her death, Christina was all set to marry Stephen Pasiewicz.
Recently, Ron DeSantis was under a lot of scrutiny for not commenting about the Donald Trump hush money payments case trial. When asked about the ex-President’s legal issues hours before his potential arrest, DeSantis merely said, “We are not involved in this, won’t be involved in this. I have no interest in getting involved in some type of manufactured circus.”
