The claim that 'Speaker of the House Mike Johnson "adopted" an 11-year-old son when he was a single 25-year-old man' is inaccurate based on available reports.
- Timeline and Age: Mike Johnson and his wife Kelly took in a teenager named Michael when they were newlyweds, and Michael was 14 years old at that time"not 11. Johnson was not a single man; he was married when they took Michael in[2][3][12][13].
- Nature of Relationship: The Johnsons did **not formally adopt Michael**. According to Johnson and his representatives, they took "custody" of Michael, but due to the "lengthy adoption process," there was never a formal, legal adoption[2][3][12][13]. He has sometimes referred to Michael as his "adopted" son, but this is not a legal designation.
- Michael's Public Profile: As an adult, Michael has chosen to remain out of Johnson's public life, and the Johnsons have respected that preference[2][3][5].
There is no evidence that Johnson informally or formally "adopted" Michael as a single man at age 25, nor that Michael was 11 at the time. Instead, the Johnsons took a 14-year-old Michael"whom they met through church youth ministry"into their home after they married, and Michael remained part of their family without a formal adoption[2][3][9][12][13].
