Dallas Yocum is Mike Lindell’s former wife. She married the MyPillow founder on June 8, 2013, and their relationship broke down shortly afterward.
Her connection to Lindell also involved employment at MyPillow. The marriage, separation, and subsequent legal proceedings account for much of the reporting about her.
Her Work Before the Marriage
A Minnesota Reformer investigation, republished by Religion Unplugged in January 2021, described Yocum’s employment history using statements from a 2013 affidavit.
In that affidavit, Yocum said she had worked at the Riverside Casino in Laughlin, Nevada, where she became acquainted with Lindell during his visits. She wrote that he offered her an executive assistant position at MyPillow in the summer of 2011.
This account places their professional connection before their wedding.
The Wedding and Divorce Timeline
The wedding took place at the Oak Ridge Hotel and Conference Center in Chaska, Minnesota.
The key dates distinguish the wedding from the divorce proceedings:
- June 8, 2013: Yocum and Lindell married.
- Mid-July 2013: Lindell told the Star Tribune he filed for divorce.
- January 2014: Lindell said the matter was settled, according to a February 2014 Star Tribune follow-up.
Descriptions of a “two-week marriage” should therefore not be read as an exact legal duration. The breakup, filing, and settlement were separate events.
Why Did They Separate?
The couple gave conflicting accounts of their relationship.
The Minnesota Reformer investigation reported that Yocum alleged verbal and physical abuse in her 2013 affidavit. Lindell denied her allegations in his own affidavit and disputed them when contacted by the reporter.
These were contested allegations, rather than established findings. Presenting the separation solely through one spouse’s explanation leaves out the other’s account.
Where Is Dallas Yocum Now?
Her current residence, occupation, and relationship status are not reliably established by the reporting available for this profile. The same applies to precise claims about her birthday and personal net worth.
