NYP:

Rep. Ilhan Omar claimed in an interview she is not separated from her husband and dating anyone else — despite bombshell allegations made in court papers that she’s the other woman in a Washington, DC, couple’s marriage.

The freshman congresswoman was accused Tuesday of carrying on a months-long affair with Dr. Beth Mynett’s politico husband, according to a divorce filing exclusively obtained by The Post.

But the 37-year-old Minnesota representative shut down questions about her allegedly tangled love life in an interview with news station WCCO.

When asked whether she split from her spouse and was dating anyone, Omar declared: “No, I am not.”

“I have no interest in allowing the conversation about my personal life to continue and so I have no desire to discuss it,” Omar told the outlet.

In a court filing, Beth Mynett alleged that her spouse told her in April that he was having an affair with the Somali-born lawmaker. Her husband, Tim Mynett, provided consulting services to Omar’s campaign through his work with the firm E. Street Group.

But his wife has claimed that his consulting services extended past the job description, including frequent travel with the congresswoman.
