Susanna Gibson, the amateur porn star who ran for election as a Democrat to be elected to the Virginia House of Delegates, was arrested for domestic violence last week.
In 2023, Susanna Gibson narrowly lost the Virginia race against Republican David Owen after her online sex scandal.
Virginia Democrat and online porn star Susanna Gibson was neck and neck with Republican David Owen in the Virginia House of Delegates District 57 in 2023 and narrowly lost.
Susanna Gibson lost after she reportedly posted sex acts with her husband online dubbed “HotWifeExperience” – while soliciting ‘tips’ from their online audience.
The 40-something-year-old nurse practitioner solicited ‘tokens’ from her online audience so the users could ‘watch her pee.’
Reminder: Virginia Dem Susanna Gibson
talked about forcing unsuspecting hotel staff to take part in her videos, allowing viewers to do drugs off her body, & she solicited money so users could “watch me pee.”No wonder her poll numbers are a disaster:

Gibson lashed out at Republicans after she lost her election.
“My entire life was rocked on Sept. 11, when the article ran. It ran, implying that I performed sex acts online with my husband for money. It was really written based on this Dropbox file that self-described Republican operatives shopped around. They had found these videos on the dark web and shopped them around to various news outlets. I didn’t have any idea that there were ever videos of me that had been made and uploaded to multiple sites,” Susanna Gibson previously told Politico.
Susanna Gibson filed for divorce from her husband, John Gibson last year. On September 22, Susanna Gibson was arrested for “assault and battery – family member.”
Gibson told The New York Post that her estranged husband has been harassing her since she filed for divorce and that he was the one who assaulted her.
John Gibson told The Post that he never physically assaulted his estranged wife.
The New York Post reported:
An ex-candidate for Virginia state legislature whose online sex videos with her husband sparked uproar when they were leaked has been arrested on a domestic violence charge — but she says the story is not so simple.
Susanna Gibson Payne, 42, was arrested in Henrico County on Sept. 22 for “assault and battery – family member.” She was released after turning herself in.
But Payne told The Post that her lawyer husband, 44-year-old John David Gibson, has been harassing her since she filed for divorce last year, and claimed he was the one who got aggressive with her during a squabble back in June.
“After my estranged husband, arrested three times since I filed for divorce, assaulted me during a June 2025 custody exchange while I protected our son, he filed a retaliatory criminal complaint against me,” Payne said.
“More than three months later, police issued a misdemeanor warrant for my arrest. I turned myself in immediately,” she added.
Her husband refuted that story, telling The Post he never hurt his wife.
