About George Farmer
George Thomas Stahel Farmer grew up about as far from American conservative media as it gets: the son of Michael Farmer, Baron Farmer — a metals-trading magnate and Conservative life peer in the UK House of Lords — he was educated at St Paul's School and Oxford before working in finance. He later chaired Turning Point UK, the British arm of the conservative student group, which is where his life changed direction.
At Turning Point UK's launch event in December 2018, he met Candace Owens. The courtship moved at startling speed — Farmer proposed over FaceTime just 17 days after they met. They married in August 2019 at Trump Winery in Charlottesville, Virginia, less than a year after that first meeting.
Farmer's highest-profile job came in 2021, when he became CEO of Parler, the "free speech" social platform, and later its parent company Parlement Technologies. He stepped down in April 2023. A devout Christian like his wife, he became a US citizen in 2025.
The couple lives in Nashville with their four children — George Michael (2021), Louise Marie (2022), Max (2023), and Roman (2025) — and in June 2026, Owens announced she's expecting their fifth. Farmer generally stays behind the scenes of Owens' media operation, surfacing occasionally in her podcast commentary, and the two have jointly weathered the controversies that trail her work, including their ongoing legal fight with France's first couple over Owens' claims about Brigitte Macron.
