Tainted Seeking Sister Wife Star Marcus Epps Seeks Re-Election

Season 4 Seeking Sister Wife star Marcus Epps is seeking City Council re-election. This may come as a surprise to those who have followed him and his family for a bevy of reasons. Prior to him starting on the TLC series, his past came back to haunt him. This made fans of the show call for him to be removed from the show. Marcus’ past included housing violations. Apparently, half of the duplex he owned went up in flames. It ultimately caused issues for the person who lived in the other half with complaints of bad smells coming from the burnt side along with rodents.

Epps tried to say that he was being unfairly targeted but there was more. There was also a shooting at an underground club that he and his wife, Taryn owned. Sadly, one person died from their injuries. Finally, there were back taxes to the tune of 12K as Marcus Epps had not paid up since 2019. Despite all of this and his family appearing as polygamists, he is still seeking re-election, per Starcasm. “I am proud to announce that I have decided to fight for my city of Euclid, Ohio for 4 MORE YEARS!” he shared on Instagram.

He went on to say: “I was ready to walk away and resign, but the fix is in! What type of man, American, father or role model would I be if I walked away leaving folks to destruction? I just can’t do it. Euclid deserves a fighting chance and as of today, that is still possible. I am running to give this city what it’s been longing for and that’s true leadership that prioritizes people over politics. Euclid, Councilman Epps is here and here to stay!!!!!!!!!! Official announcement coming soon….#fightingforthefolks #euclidohio #polyfam #normalfamily #peoplefirst.”

Is He Even A Resident?

Marcus Epps’ residency has come into question. His family spends most of their time in their Florida home so how can he run for council in Ohio? It does not matter because it seems that he is determined to do so. There have been more scandal that has come his way even after filming ended. His family welcomed in Christeline Petersen who was married to Dimitri Snowden from the first three seasons of Seeking Sister Wife.

However, she chose to end the marriage after claims of physical abuse by both Dimitri and his wife, Ashley. They were let go from the show and Christeline went into hiding. Now, she may or may not still be with the Epps family which includes Marcus, Taryn, and his fiancee, India. After all of this, do you think that Marcus Epps should seek re-election? More so, do you think he will win? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

  1. Since he been in office our ward has went down this man too busy running the streets instead of his position the previous one was way better at least she showed and care about the residents in her ward

  2. Marcus Epps, all things considered, has less skeletons in his closet and does more for the city than elected officials currently. At this time, in the city in which he seeks re-election, he has meals for those who need them, has facilities for the homeless in his office (and they are all legit, I am a woman, and he has never made me feel uncomfortable). Marcus Epps does more for “real people” that need help than anyone I have met. Having had the pleasure of spending some time with four of his teen sons, they are the most respectful, down to earth, great kids I have ever met. While I could tell you many great things I know about his children, Marcus could have too. But, he never went there, defended himself, as the great father he is and should have, after reading all the media I have about the man. If you knew where a few of the oldest children are today, even at their young age, the things they are doing today, have already accomplished with their lives, Marcus could put the media to shame, if this was known. And, maybe that’s what Mr. Epps needs to do one day. For all the talk of the polygamy and women in Marcus’s life, he managed to raise a great family unit, the whole of it, within his marriages. I think it is the large family life he has created, how close they all are, how they support and love one another, and have created this warmth and love they all share. Mr. Epp’s chose to hide all the good aspects, I believe, having done the show, to protect them. Had the viewers known the entirety of his family, how at least one of his boys (and sometimes two or three) is always at work in some project with him, the encouragement he gives them to succeed….had I known he was doing this show, I would have projected it couldn’t work out for him right. He could never share the things that mean the most to him with the world. For the very reason that they mean too much and Mr. Epp’s strongly protects those he loves. As for the shot girl he carried out of the club, what was he supposed to do? Leave her like everyone else? Even those Mr. Epps knew it would probably turn out badly, he is too soft hearted to leave anyone to ever suffer. Everyone else did. Mr. Epp’s will always be a target, for the most part. Because he is different. And, unlike most people, he shows too much to the world. At least, rather than cheat on a spouse, he chose to combine his needs, wants and desires to make it work, with love. When President Clinton got caught in the White House (and I’m using this as an example because I really don’t follow lesser political scandals, of which there are many, and some, quite out there), I was like, what’s the big deal? Remember J.F.K, everything about Marilyn. And, we had Jefferson who was to have said to sleep with slaves and even fathered children with them. What was the big deal that Clinton had any kind of affair, other than the fact he did it while at work/ doing work? You really shouldn’t be doing that kind of thing on the clock, when getting paid. But, when is the President not at work? He lives where he works, so there is that. The only thing I mean to point out here is that Mr. Marcus Epps shows the world more truth than any other politician has ever done. So, if we know all that beforehand, what is there to fear, that could go wrong? What would make someone who wants a big family and a lot of love, bad? Even politically? Anyone who is devoted to making a community stronger, puts aside their own personal issues for others and gets the job done…that’s all we need to look for in a political representative. And those kids, if you were to see how well they had been raised, you would know Mr. Epps could make the world a better place. I know his children, even the young ones, are at world doing just that.

    1. He owes $17,000.00 in the rears in property taxes on a shell of a house in Tungten Rd in the City of Euclid, and is in tax foreclosure do you think that I would TRUST someone like him TO RUN THE CITY!!
