Almost 12 years ago, the current Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley wrote about how she renamed her husband, who resurfaced in the middle of the Republican party.
A senior political correspondent for Vox took to social media on Wednesday and posted an excerpt from her 2012 book “Can’t Is Not an Option” in which Haley recounted how she changed the way people refer to her now-husband, Michael Haley.
“You may be wondering how ‘Bill’ became South Carolina’s First Man Michael Haley,” Haley wrote in his book. “After we started dating, I looked at him one day and said, ‘What’s your name?'”
“‘You know it’s Bill,’ he said, puzzled.”
“’You don’t look like Bill. What’s your full name?’”
“’William Michael.’”
“From then on, I started calling him Michael, and all my friends did the same. When he transferred to Clemson his sophomore year, my friend became his friend, and before we knew it, he was universally known as Michael. Everyone who knew him before me knew him as Bill, and everyone who met him after I knew him as Michael.”
