Kristi Noem’s mother broke the news Friday, July 10, that the former Department of Homeland Security secretary has begun divorce proceedings against her husband Bryon after 34 years of marriage.

It was publicly revealed in March that Bryon Noem, the insurance agent and father of three, allegedly liked to cross-dress as a woman with excessively large breasts while engaging in online affairs with fetish sex workers and dominatrixes from the “bimbofication scene.”

“I feel bad, sick that they’re getting a divorce, but what else can you do?” Noem’s mother, Corinne Arnold, said in an interview with the Daily Mail published Friday. “It has been difficult, but we knew this was coming, that they were going to get divorced.”

Arnold spoke to the Daily Mail during an interview at her home, abutting the South Dakota ranch where her 54-year-old daughter, also the state’s former governor, once lived with Bryon, her high school sweetheart and father of her three adult children. But Bryon packed up and moved out of the ranch after the Daily Mail broke the news about his “secret life,” in which he communicated online with female porn performers before and during his wife’s controversial leadership of the DHS.

During one of these communications, the 56-year-old Bryon Noem shared a now-infamous selfie of himself dressed up in the style of the “bimbofication” scene, which favors a Barbie-doll beauty aesthetic. He squeezed his tall frame into skintight pink shorts and a flesh-colored crop-top, into which he had stuffed two balloons that were supposed to resemble gigantic breasts, as the Daily Mail reported.

In another exchange with another online performer, with whom the Daily Mail said he had an on-off, nine-year relationship, Bryon Noem discussed his desire to leave his wife and change his gender through surgery and hormone therapy.

“I want to be a Crystal so bad,” Bryon Noem wrote in a Jan. 11 message to the dominatrix, according to the Daily Mail. “I want to be a woman so bad.”

That same month, Kristi Noem was overseeing aggressive immigration operations in Minneapolis, where two civilians, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, were shot to death in fatal encounters with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.

During her 14 months as DHS secretary, Noem was dubbed “ICE Barbie” because she seemed as drawn as her husband to a certain, ultra-feminine beauty aesthetic, which cultural observers at The New York Times, Mother Jones and other outlets said has become favored by women in President Donald Trump’s MAGA circles. For Kristi Noem, that meant wearing cascading hair, heavy make-up and puffed-up lips, including while she donned uniforms and bullet-proof vests while making a show of joining ICE operations.

In March, Trump fired Kristi Noem from her top job at the DHS. At that time, she also faced intense scrutiny over her alleged affair with senior aide Corey Lewandowski, the Daily Mail reported. Soon after, the Daily Mail broke the news about her husband’s online activities with fetish sex workers. The Daily Beast also interviewed one of Bryon Noem’s alleged online contacts, who said he liked to role-play in a “sissy sub” way. The online worker also said he revealed that wearing gigantic fake breasts relaxed him when he felt under stress.

National Security experts consulted by the Daily Mail in March said that Bryon Noem’s “brazen behavior” with online porn performers could have left his wife — in her highly sensitive job at DHS — vulnerable to blackmail. It’s not known if Bryon’s online activities played a role in his wife’s firing. But she retained a position in the Trump administration. She was reassigned to lead the Shield of the Americas, a small and recently created agency within the State Department, the Daily Mail said.

In her initial response to the controversy about her husband, Kristi Noem said she had been “blindsided” and “devastated” by the revelations, while asking for privacy and prayers. She also took some time off and flew back home to South Dakota to spend time with family, the Daily Mail revealed.

An enraged, 2,000lb (900kg) bull bison hooked a tourist and tossed him 8ft into the air at a campsite in Wyoming’s Yellowstone national park on Friday – an encounter captured by a professional photographer who said the animal was “agitated, pissed off and charging anything and everything”.

The tourist was reported to be seriously injured by the male bison while walking with his grandson through the Bridge Bay campground, south of Fishing Bridge.


The National Park Service (NPS), which administers Yellowstone, has not released details about the attack.

But Mike MacLeod, a professional photographer from nearby Bozeman, Montana, gave a vivid account of it to Wyoming’s Cowboy State Daily newspaper. And he provided video of the attack to the outlet, which published it on YouTube.

MacLeod told the outlet that he was camping at a campground with his wife when she spotted the bison approaching the area.

“I was just trying to get some dramatic footage of that bison having a fit,” MacLeod said. “It’s changed my idea of what to expect from these guys at this time of year, because I would not have predicted that happening.”

The bison, MacLeod told Cowboy State Daily, “started walking through the campground. He was coming up to this group of kids, who were taking pictures on their cellphones from a good distance away, and then the buffalo charged these kids.”

MacLeod said the bison kept running through the campground while campers yelled and screamed to warn each other. The man who would be tossed into the air then appeared coming down a road while the animal was sitting in dust.

“He was sitting in the dust, like bison do, with his head out towards the road,” MacLeod said.

MacLeod’s video shows the grandfather and grandson each pull cellphone cameras out and point it at the bison – while evidently dozens of yards away – before it started to get up.

At that point, MacLeod reported to Cowboy State Daily: “The grandfather’s like, ‘OK, time to leave,’ and they moved off behind these trees.”

The animal was distracted by a pickup truck and charged it, prompting the vehicle’s driver to speed off.

“The guy in the truck saw that happening, and he just kept going,” said MacLeod, who added that the bison then turned his attention to where the man and his grandson “were hiding in the trees”.

The grandson fled managed to flee while the bison chased his grandfather around some trees and flipped him, MacLeod told Cowboy State Daily.

“The bison hooked him with his left horn on his hip and tossed him in the air,” he said to the outlet. “He made a perfect flip and landed on his side.

“The bison was at least 6ft tall, and the victim was several feet above him.”

MacLeod said he tried to distract the bison: “I was really afraid he was going to gore the guy on the ground, so I stopped videotaping and ran at the bison, yelled loud, and was trying to be as big and intimidating as possible.”

Other bystanders did the same, and the bison fled.

MacLeod said the wounded man’s grandson told him that the grandfather “has some pretty significant injuries and is not out of the woods yet”.

Yellowstone officials warns on the park’s website that the animals in the park “are wild and dangerous, no matter how docile they may appear to be” – and the best way to view them is from inside a car.

Officials advise visitors to stay at least 100 yards (90 meters) away from bears, wolves and cougars – and a minimum of 25 yards away from all other animals, including bison and elk.

“If an animal moves closer to you, back away to maintain a safe distance,” the park’s website says. “It’s illegal to willfully remain near or approach wildlife, including birds, within any distance that disturbs or displaces the animal.”

MacLeod pointed out that the injured man was following park suggestions when he was attacked. “I didn’t see anybody getting close,” MacLeod said to Cowboy State Daily. “People were yelling, ‘Careful, there’s a bison coming through,’ and they kept their distance. They were very respectful.”

The attack happened during bison rutting – or mating – season, when the males seek to show off their physical prowess and stamina in a contest for mating with a bison cow.

“You can tell he was agitated, pissed off and charging anything and everything,” MacLeod said.

Cowboy State Daily reported this was Yellowstone’s second bison-on-human incident in 2026. The first occurred on 26 June, when a 12-year-old was injured near Mud Volcano, north of Fishing Bridge.

“The visitor sustained injuries, and emergency medical personnel transported them to a nearby hospital,” the NPS said in a statement. “The incident remains under investigation.”
