The son of Nikki Haley, the US politician who at one stage was viewed as a serious rival to Donald Trump for the Republican nomination in 2024, was received into the Catholic Church on Palm Sunday.
Nikki Haley, a former US ambassador to the United Nations and South Carolina governor, was born and raised in the Sikh faith but converted to Christianity after marrying her husband, Michael Haley, in 1996, reports the Catholic News Agency (CNA).
In a 2012 interview, Haley said she and her husband “chose Christianity because of the way we wanted to live our life and raise our children”. She was reportedly baptised in a Methodist church but has attended Baptist churches as well.
