A representative for Kristi Noem has addressed the 'devastating' allegations about her husband, Bryon, on fetish forums.
The former Homeland Security Secretary, who was fired by US President Donald Trump last month, was reportedly left 'blindsided' by a Daily Mail report which alleged her husband, Bryon, had been sharing 'bimbofication' photos of himself cross-dressing on online forums.
According to the Progressive Therapeutic Collective, bimbofication 'can be considered a practice, kink and/or fetish that involves role-playing and transforming oneself into a stereotypical portrayal of a "bimbo"'.
"Bimbofication entails adopting the appearance, behaviour, and mindset associated with the bimbo archetype. Participants may engage in role-play scenarios, wear revealing outfits, use exaggerated makeup, and embody a carefree, sexually empowered attitude," the experts explain.

"However, it's crucial to note that bimbofication is a fantasy or role-play scenario and should not be mistaken for real-life intelligence or worth."
The Daily Mail report, which was published yesterday (31 March), claims that national security experts said that Bryon's alleged activities could have put his wife at risk while she served in Trump’s cabinet.
The report detailed how the insurance mogul's alleged actions left Noem, 54, 'vulnerable to blackmail'.
The outlet obtained photos of Bryon that were allegedly shared online with strangers while she was serving as Homeland Security chief.
Several of the photos include Bryon's face, with some appearing to show the 56-year-old wearing pink hot pants and large fake breasts apparently made of balloons.
As per the Mail, the messages show Bryon praising the models online and allegedly declaring that he loves 'huge, huge ridiculous boobs'.
National security experts said the images could have been intercepted by 'hostile intelligence services'.
During Noem’s time at the department, Bryon was 'repeatedly asked for money' and sent his online contacts at least $25,000, according to the Daily Mail.
"It’s astounding that somebody whose spouse is at that level has that kind of bad judgment," US counterintelligence expert Jack Barsky told the outlet.
"If a media organisation can find this out, you can assume with a high degree of confidence that a hostile intelligence service knows this as well," added former CIA officer Marc Polymeropoulos.
"Damaging information like this can be a tantalising lead for a hostile intelligence service," Polymeropoulos said. "They approach the person and say, if you work with us, we won’t expose this, and if you don’t, we will. That’s espionage 101."
Bryon denied that the alleged activity put his wife at risk of blackmail when contacted by phone by the Mail.
A representative for Noem told the New York Post: "Ms Noem is devastated. The family was blindsided by this, and they ask for privacy and prayers at the time."
The couple, who married in 1992, share three children together.
Trump has since reacted to the allegations.
The 79-year-old Republican reportedly told the Mail over the phone: "They confirmed it?
"Wow, well, I feel badly for the family if that's the case, that's too bad."
"I haven't seen anything," he continued. "I don't know anything about it. That's too bad, but I just know nothing about it."
LADbible Media Group has reached out to the White House, the National Governors Association (NGA) and the State Department, the latter of which oversees Noem's new role as a special envoy to the Shield of the Americas, for comment.
