WATCH LIVE: Trump prosecutor Fani Willis may testify at hearing that could get her disqualified from former presidents case
The hearing will focus on whether the Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney improperly benefited from her relationship with a special prosecutor appointed to the case.
A former "good friend" of District Attorney Fani Willis testified Thursday that she has "no doubt" Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade had a "romantic" relationship starting in 2019, contradicting Willis’ statements in court.
Robin Yeartie, a former Fulton County DA employee and self-described "good friend" of Willis, said Thursday she has "no doubt" Willis and Wade were in a romantic relationship starting in 2019 to when her and Willis last spoke in 2022.
This contradicts Wills’ claims in court that she and Wade "have been professional associates and friends since 2019," and "there was no personal relationship" between her and Wade in November 2021 at the time of Wade’s appointment.

"No doubt," Yeartie said.
