Personal life
--Lorensparrow (talk) 03:47, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

Many public figures have a "Personal Life" section it seems like it would be appropriate to add a section like this to this page as outlined below. If you feel like there is a problem with adding this would you mind letting me know how it could be adjusted to fit what you are looking for.

Strimling and Mary Beeaker whom he married on September 22, 2004 in Positano, Italy are currently going through a divorce. Beeaker's attorney, Diane Dusini, cite "irreconcilable differences." He has no children and resides in Portland, Maine.

Extramarital Affair
--Lorensparrow (talk) 03:48, 6 August 2017 (UTC) This event in Strimling's personal life is both a monumental milestone in his life story and because he is an elected official important for his constituency to know. Infidelity is a common topic on other politicians pages and I think it has a place here. My edit before was removed. Could you let me know more specifically why it was removed and I will work on making it fit within your specifications.
 * While it can be mentioned since it appeared in a reliable source, far too much space was devoted to it giving it undue weight. Please review that and WP:PUBLICFIGURE for advice on mentioning this. It probably shouldn't be much more than a paragraph. Also ensure that there is a neutral point of view; phrasing like "monumental milestone" is not neutral. I may work on it some. 331dot (talk) 09:20, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
 * I've adjusted the text to conform to the guidelines I've mentioned above; when it began is irrelevant, "attempted to hide it" is an opinion, and the 'potential' COI seems to have little to do with it. 331dot (talk) 09:30, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
