According to WRAL News on November 11, 2025, six U.S. states still still have alienation of affection laws: Hawaii, Mississippi, New Mexico, North Carolina, South Dakota, and Utah. I knew about North Carolina and Mississippi, but I do not think I knew the other four. North Carolina's alienation of affection law is in the news with former U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema (Arizona) facing a lawsuit.
