Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort’s daughter has filed paperwork to officially change her last name, a move that would distance herself from her father, a convicted felon.
Jessica Manafort filed name-change paperwork in the Manhattan Supreme Court on Friday, according to multiple reports.
She is seeking to take her mother’s maiden name, Bond.
“I would like my new name to be Jessica Anne Bond, in place of my present name,” the 36-year-old wrote in the filing, adding that it “more closely suits [her] profession.”
Her profession is apparently not bribery, fraud, tax evasion, witness tampering, perjury, and treason, like her father.
