George Farmer is the husband of commentator Candace Owens, who sparked controversy again after wearing a matching "White Lives Matter" statement shirt with Kanye West.

The duo wore the shirt to the YZY fashion show, West's brand. Some of the models reportedly wore "White Lives Matter" shirts as well during the event.

The Anti-Defamation League believes that "White Lives Matter" was created as "a racist response to the Black Lives Matter movement." The statement was allegedly advanced by white supremacist groups and those who supported them.

Owens and West also criticized the movement through social media, posting about how Black Lives Matter is nothing more than a scam. The Instagram post, however, has since been deleted from the rapper's social media.

With the controversial shirts circulating the internet, people have become more curious about Owens and her white husband, Farmer's take on her statements.

George Farmer Is the Son of Lord Farmer

Farmer comes from a British political family, with his father, Lord Michael Farmer, being a member of an elite government body called the House of Lords. However, his family did not always have a high position in society.

His father came from humble beginnings and worked hard to carve a successful career in the metal industry. According to The Things, Farmer said:

"It was the Thatcherite reforms of the Eighties that allowed my father to turn his talent into success, which is what I want for everyone else, regardless of color or creed."

As life toughened him up, Lord Michael raised his son through tough love and ensured his education was top-notch. Farmer attended United Kingdom's most prestigious institutions, including London's St. Paul's School.

He later received his education at Oxford University, where he graduated with a First Class degree in Theology. It wasn't until 2018 that he met his wife, who is two years his senior.

George Farmer Is the CEO of Parler

After graduating, Farmer worked in the banking industry. He then joined his father for a while to sell metal as a commodity around the world. Simultaneously, he was in British politics.

Farmer later worked as the Operating Chief of Parler, a social media application that can be downloaded through Apple's App Store. In 2021, Farmer became the CEO, succeeding Parler's interim head, Mark Meckler. Farmer said at that time:

“For the past two months I have worked with an incredible team of people, under the leadership of Mark Meckler, to bring Parler back online and return to Apple’s App Store after we had been unfairly maligned by the media and its allies in Big Tech and Congress.”

Parler was previously removed from the Apple and Google app stores after it allegedly produced threatening content amid the January 6 Capitol riot. However, with Farmer's leadership, Parler was able to get back on the app stores.

George Farmer Has the Same Political Views as His Wife

Having been in politics, Farmer knows much about how the government works. It may be safe to say that his passion for politics drew him closer to his wife.

Owens, a right-wing activist, has been outspoken about her political views in the past. As a frustrated journalist, having failed to finish her degree, Owens became one of former President Donald Trump's prominent supporters and close pals.

In 2018, she launched a movement encouraging African-Americans to become Republican voters. She is also known for attacking Trump's critics.

Her husband shares the same political views and fully supports her, even appearing in her 2019 production of "The Candace Owens Show." Farmer, the right-wing group Turning Point UK's former chairman, also has conservative values and appeared with Owens and Trump in several photographs.

George Farmer and Candace Owens Got Married in 2019

The couple's support for Trump was evident in their 2019 wedding. The event saw three bridal gown changes from Owens and guests wearing red "Make Weddings Great Again" hats.

Farmer's wedding took place in August at Trump Winery and seated several conservative guests, including Nigel Farage, Larry Elder, Jon Voight, and Turning Point USA's founder, Charlie Kirk.

Farmer and Owens met in December 2019 during a right-wing student group's endorsement ceremony in the UK. After a little over two weeks of dating, Farmer asked the political activist to marry him over a FaceTime call. In her Instagram post, Owens wrote:

"From start to finish just the most wonderful person in the entire world. You are now our planner for everything, forever and always."

George Farmer Has Two Children with Candace Owens

On January 13, 2021, Farmer and Owens became parents to a beautiful baby boy. According to Daily Mail, Owens shared the exciting news over an Instagram post and shared a Tweet that read: "It's true what they say— the whole world stops when your child is born. 1/13/21 My firstborn son."

In July 2022, the couple welcomed their second child and only daughter, Louise Marie Farmer. Owens shared the news on her Instagram alongside an adorable photo of her newborn.

In recent years, Candace Owens has made headlines for calling out public figures and voicing her opinion. Among them was her comment on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's interview with Oprah, where she called the former "Suits" star a "liar" and "narcissist."

Owens was one of the many who did not believe the duchess' claims. Another long-time critic was British native Piers Morgan. However, her outspoken views of the royal come as no surprise, given her character.
