The husband of a woman who allegedly had an affair with a Texas congressman before she took her own life has revealed he is sitting on even more \u201csalacious\u201d texts than those already released.<\/p>\n

Regina Santos-Aviles was working as his aide when she allegedly had an affair with Rep. Tony Gonzales, 45, a married father of six. She died after setting herself alight in the garden of her Uvalde home last September at age 35. <\/p>\n

Her husband, Adrian Aviles, had already shared spicy texts<\/a> he claimed the Republican congressman sent to his wife, including one sent after midnight in May 2024 that said, \u201cSend me a sexy pic.\u201d <\/p>\n

When Santos-Aviles said she was having a rough week, he pressured her to text the NSFW photo, claiming, \u201cI\u2019m just such a visual person.\u201d<\/p>\n

When the Republican asked her favorite sexual position, she replied, \u201cThis is going too far boss.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Erin Burnett OutFront, Aviles revealed he had more extreme messages that were allegedly shared between Gonzales and his wife.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just released a tip of the iceberg of the things that this man was telling her,\u201d Aviles said. \u201cI released just what was… enough information for the people to understand who this person and who they were dealing with.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said he wanted to protect his son, whom he shares with Santos-Aviles, so would not release \u201cthe salacious messages that went back and forth.\u201d <\/p>\n

He did provide a glimpse, however, into the nature of the texts, noting they were \u201cmuch more graphic than what I presented to the American people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gonzales has rejected calls to resign<\/a>, even after the release of the sordid text messages. <\/p>\n

Aviles said he shared the original messages after Gonzales claimed<\/a> that reports of the affair were \u201ccoordinated political attacks\u201d ahead of his preparation for the March 3 Republican primary in Texas.<\/p>\n

Aviles said he had already done his part in \u201cletting people know who he is,\u201d but insisted his actions towards the Republican were not politically motivated.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t care two cents about the whole political matter behind it… I care about facts.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aviles added, \u201cAnd to say that the facts are going to come out… I would bet that he does not want me to release all of the messages that show how gross of a man he is.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Daily Beast has contacted Gonzales\u2019 rep for comment.<\/p>\n

Following the text messages released on Monday, top female MAGA lawmakers, including Anna Paulina Luna, Lauren Boebert, and Nancy Mace, publicly condemned the <\/a>Donald Trump-endorsed Republican congressman and called for his resignation.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a woman, this is really disgusting to see. Not to mention, it brings dishonor on the House of Representatives. I am so sick of people not calling this crap out,\u201d Luna wrote on X<\/a>, while Boebert tagged Gonzales in her post and wrote him a pointed message: \u201cRESIGN!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The husband of a woman who allegedly had an affair with a Texas congressman before she took her…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":491725,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[225380,23,15284,225383,3,225382,225381,21,19,22,20,25,24],"class_list":{"0":"post-491724","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-united-states","8":"tag-adrian-aviles","9":"tag-america","10":"tag-cnn","11":"tag-erin-burnett","12":"tag-news","13":"tag-regina-santos-aviles","14":"tag-tony-gonzales","15":"tag-united-states","16":"tag-united-states-of-america","17":"tag-unitedstates","18":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","19":"tag-us","20":"tag-usa"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/491724","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=491724"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/491724\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/491725"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=491724"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=491724"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=491724"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
