Exclusive Details of Haley Meadows Kocher's Atlanta Wedding
Despite Coronavirus Precautions, Event Draws Criticism
Haley Meadows Kocher, the daughter of White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, married her husband, Ian Kocher, in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 31, 2020. The wedding took place at the Biltmore, a grand hotel in the heart of the Midtown district, and was attended by approximately 70 guests, many of whom were seen without masks. The event has drawn criticism due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and the recent spike in cases in Georgia.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the wedding guests dined on a multi-course meal, danced close together, and took photos without wearing masks. Some attendees expressed concern that the event could have been a potential super-spreader for COVID-19.
The White House has not commented on the wedding, and Mark Meadows has not publicly addressed the concerns raised about the event. The Secret Service, which is responsible for protecting the White House chief of staff, declined to comment on the security arrangements for the wedding.
The marriage of Haley Meadows Kocher has sparked a debate about the importance of social distancing and mask-wearing during the pandemic. It remains to be seen whether the event will have any impact on the chief of staff's standing within the White House.
