The eyebrow-raising money trail behind Kristi Noem's crossdressing husband, Bryon, and his alleged “bimbofication” fetish spending is starting to spill into the open, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
The former rancher allegedly forked over a jaw-dropping $25 per minute for private chats with surgically enhanced models, and now one of them is lifting the lid on their bizarre and deeply personal exchanges.
Bryon Noem Was Into a 'Femdom' Kink
Cam model Lydia Love dished about Bryon Noem's various kinks from exchanges they had.
Webcam model and performer Lydia Love had exchanges through the live streaming website CamSoda, and in a new interview revealed Bryon liked to "perform" a "submissive" role to her dominator in what is known online as the "femdom" kink.
"He would try to talk more feminine. His kink was yoga pants," she explained. "He wanted to be the star of the show and really show off. I would hype him up."
Bryon was seen in selfies leaked on March 31 showing him wearing tight T-shirts with large balloons underneath to simulate breasts. He wore a pair of pink hot pants in one snapshot, and green yoga shorts in another.
Bryon Noem Paid $25 Per Minute for Cam Model Chats
Lydia Love is a prominent webcam model.
Love said Bryon's fake breasts display was particularly memorable, especially when he wore them during their webcam sessions.
"I've never seen another client have them. Ever," she stated about the deviant former first gentleman of South Dakota.
During their chats, Bryon liked having dirty talk and revealed at one point that he was a married man, although he didn't disclose how his wife was one of the most powerful female politicians in the U.S.
"He did say he was married, but didn’t say anything notable about his wife. But I shut that down, I didn't want to talk about it," Love explained.
"We mainly chatted in small talk, he would say, 'today wasn't the best, but I'm excited for right now.'"
Fetish Cam Model Called Bryon Noem a 'Hypcrite'
Bryon Noem talked to fetish Cam models while wife Kristi was the DHS Secretary.
Love revealed that many of their online chats occurred when the former South Dakota governor was serving as President Donald Trump's Department of Homeland Security secretary.
After paying for her services nearly 15 times over two years, "The last time was about six months ago, and then I didn't hear from him again. I wondered what had happened to him, but clients come and go," the s-- worker claimed.
One of the reasons Love came forward after Bryon's cross-dressing story broke was because of the "hypocrisy" of the married fundamentalist Christian.
“I'm really big on keeping clients’ information private, but he's already been exposed, and it's the hypocrisy of their politics," she shared about the deeply conservative duo, who have been married for 33 years and share three adult children.
Kristi claimed she knew nothing about her husband's kink when the pictures leaked, with her spokesperson revealing the politician was "devastated" and her family was "blindsided," while asking for "prayers at this time."

Conservative host Megyn Kelly said she felt bad about 'having judged' Kristi Noem's alleged affair with Corey Lewandowski.
Bryon's face appeared clearly visible, and making pucker-kiss face expressions in the photos that leaked. He didn't deny that it was him in the pictures, but said that his kink activity was not a national security risk for his wife, who experts warned could have been the subject of blackmail resulting from the risqué snapshots.
Kristi was canned by Trump on March 5 following a disastrous Senate hearing where they tried to pin the blame on a $220million ego-driven ad campaign on the president. She was also accused of having a long-running affair with her top DHS aide, Corey Lewandowski.
The current special envoy to The Shield of the Americas received some sympathy in conservative circles, as Megyn Kelly said she "feels bad for having judged" Kristi.
"I feel for Kristi Noem, it puts a totally different spin on the affair she's allegedly been having with Corey Lewandowski. Who could blame her?" the SiriusXM host quipped.
