According to photos and video obtained by Robbie Harvey, controversial Pastor John-Paul Miller has married Suzie Skinner, a woman from his congregation with whom some have alleged he had an affair while the two were married to other people.
The death of Miller’s former wife Mica in 2024 made national headlines because of allegations that Miller was abusive. Moreover, authorities recently reopened an investigation into the death of Skinner’s former husband, Chris, who drowned in 2021 and whose death was determined at the time to be an accident.
“John-Paul Miller and Suzie Skinner are getting married right now in Myrtle Beach,” said Harvey in a social media post on Sunday June 1. “If JP and Suzie believe this union will save them from testifying against each other… well… I’ve got some bad news.”
“Spousal Privilege doesn’t apply to premarital communications. Translation… Suzie doesn’t have a choice,” said Harvey. “Every crime, text, conversation, action, EVERYTHING before today… Suzie Skinner will be forced to testify.”
“The deaths of their spouses are currently under investigation,” Harvey noted. “Mica Miller’s death is under FBI investigation. Chris Skinner’s death is under investigation by the Horry County Coroners Office.”
John-Paul Miller, Suzie Skinner Wed at the Beach
John-Paul Miller and his deceased wife, Mica, have been in the headlines since April 28, 2024, when Miller took time at the end of Sunday service at his former church, Solid Rock at Market Common in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, to tell his congregation his wife had died by suicide. Miller said that Mica, who passed away April 27, had mental health challenges and had struggled with suicide in the past.
However, former Solid Rock congregant, Angela Clark, who was a friend of Mica’s, said Mica had filed for divorce and was attempting to get out of “an abusive marriage.” Additional troubling details emerged in the following weeks, resulting in the movement “Justice for Mica.”
Miller has emphatically denied abusing Mica, and despite speculation that Miller was responsible for her death, officials have ruled that Mica did indeed die by suicide. Investigators found that Miller was with another woman at the time of Mica’s death. He was also seen with Suzie Skinner days after Mica’s death.
On Friday, Nov. 1, FBI agents executed a search warrant at Miller’s house, removing a number of items, including a computer. FBI spokesperson Kevin Wheeler would not confirm to ChurchLeaders the reason for the search on the grounds that “this is an ongoing matter.”
