Ilhan Omar’s Muslim husband ‘disgusted’ by ‘dirty dandy brother’ she allegedly wed coming to live with them: source
3 clues Ilhan Omar had sham marriage to brother — from marriage certificate to living with ‘dirty dandy’
Ilhan Omar’s first husband was “embarrassed” when her effeminate “brother” — who she is accused of marrying — came to live with them in Minnesota, a family friend told The Post.
The congresswoman (D-Minn.) had two young children with Ahmed Hirsi, when she suddenly split from him in 2009. She then quickly married an “extremely feminine Somali guy from London,” Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, fond of wearing short shorts with cowboy boots.
She was able to do this as she had only been wed to Ahmed in a 2002 Islamic ceremony which was not recognized by the state.

One of Hirsi’s close friends claimed Omar and her first husband were actually still together, and Elmi suddenly moving in caused strain on their relationship. The legal marriage was reportedly so he could get “papers” to start a new life in the US, as The Post has previously reported.
“The whole community was gossiping about [Elmi] when he first arrived,” the source, who wished to remain anonymous, told The Post.
“He was walking around in tight female clothing, which is heavily frowned upon in the Somali community, so I went to ask Ahmed about it.
“He told me that it was his wife’s brother from London and that Ilhan had ‘embarrassed all of us by bringing him here’. Ahmed used very strong words and said it was ‘disgusting.’”

British citizen Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, brother of Rep. Ilhan Omar, has a flamboyant dress sense.
Hirsi is said to have been at the heart of Minnesota’s Somali community and was hugely popular after settling there with his family.
“He was very sociable and had his finger on the pulse of everything that was happening,” the source told The Post.
“Ahmed was known by his nickname, South Side. He is a good man and has friends all over town.”
