Mace previously revealed that she got nine tattoos in a short period between late 2023 and early 2024.
She said the experience gave her “the pain that I need to feel” and helped her “reclaim” her body and identity. The tattoos came during a difficult period in her personal and professional life, including the end of her engagement and the departure of several staffers from her congressional office.
Speaking to Politico earlier this year, Mace described herself as “totally broken” and said she had PTSD from what she had experienced.
Nancy Mace has been married twice and has two children from her second marriage. She is currently single.
First marriage: Mace married Chris Niemiec, a fellow Citadel graduate who later became an Air Force JAG officer, in 1999. They divorced in 2002 and did not have children.
Second marriage: She married software engineer and businessman Curtis Jackson in 2004. They divorced in 2019 after about 15 years of marriage and share two children.
