Mayor Joseph Allen is reportedly having an affair with Brianna Church, an Evaluator for the matchmaking company Love Formula. Allen met his now-estranged fiancee, Abigail Donner, with the help of Church last May. Now, both the mayor and Church are facing ridicule from the public.
Donner was recently photographed leaving her Jersey City apartment building before getting into a cab and heading to Newark Airstrip. That same day, Allen was photographed by BMC in Park Slope with Church. The gossip website pointed out that Allen was wearing the same clothes he wore to the ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new Bensonhurst Rydz Maintenance Center, the previous day. From there, the rumors started to spread.
Not only does this bring up the obvious larger issue of the faithfulness of Allen’s marriage, it also begs to question the ethical implications of a Love Formula Evaluator becoming romantically involved with her subject.
Make sure to stay tuned to The Preserver for more on this developing story.

You may recall the media frenzy popping up around the young Kings County mayor last year, right after photos leaked of him at the Love Formula’s New York City headquarters located in Brooklyn’s Greenpoint neighborhood.
“I grew up using dating applications on my phone,” Allen told The Preserver in an exclusive interview last year. “You name it, I was trying it. Clearly, none of them worked because I’m still single. Miss Church has helped me go through the Love Formula process, and I must say I’m impressed. I’m serious, and they’re serious.”
Neither Allen nor Donner have commented on the affair allegations. While Church has also remained quiet, Love Formula has released a statement regarding the rumors.
“Love Formula will not comment on the personal life of our valued employee, Abigail Church. The company does want to stress that our algorithm for finding our clients’ matches is mathematically sound, but we’ve also never hidden our 7.6% failure rate. Continued stability in a relationship isn’t Love Formula’s responsibility. We find the person that our clients deserve. The rest is up to them.”
