Rep. Lauren Boebert confirmed Thursday that she is now a grandmother and doesn’t have time for “spats” with members of Congress like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who called her a “little bitch” on the House floor Wednesday.

Boebert (R-Colo.), 36, let slip the joyful news while speaking with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Thursday night about her shouting match with Greene (R-Ga.) over dueling impeachment resolutions targeting President Biden.

“Sean, I did not put my life on pause and leave my four boys and my now-grandson to come here and just get in spats with people,” she said. “I came here to legislate and to be effective for Coloradans, Coloradans who are suffering from the Democrats’ policy. Marjorie is not my enemy. Joe Biden’s policy, the Democrats, that is my enemy that I am combating right now.”

She got into a tiff with far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who called her a “little bitch” on the House floor Wednesday.

Greene accused Boebert on Wednesday of having “copied” articles of impeachment against Biden that Greene had initially asked her to co-sponsor.

“I’ve donated to you, I’ve defended you. But you’ve been nothing but a little bitch to me,” Greene yelled at Boebert, the Daily Beast reported — an account later backed up by Greene.

“OK, Marjorie, we’re through,” Boebert responded with a shrug.

“We were never together,” Greene said as the two walked away.

Boebert first revealed at a March Moms for America event that her 17-year-old son Tyler and his girlfriend were expecting a son.

“So I’m going to tell you all for the first time in a public setting, that not only am I a mom of four boys, but come April I will be a gigi to a brand new grandson. And Jayson and I are so excited to welcome this new life into our family,” she said.

The firebrand congresswoman, who is a staunch opponent of abortion, was a teen mom herself after dropping out of high school in her senior year when she was pregnant with Tyler, her oldest son.

Boebert went on at the March event to recount how Tyler joked about maintaining the family tradition when he broke the news to her.

“Now my son, when I approached him and told him, ‘Tyler, I’m going to be a 36-year-old grandmother,’ he said, ‘Well, didn’t you make Granny a 36-year-old granny?’” Boebert told the crowd. “I said, ‘Yes, I did.’ He said, ‘Well, then it’s hereditary.’”

“Nice try, buddy,” she said.

The former Lauren Roberts later married Jayson Boebert to raise their four sons, but revealed last month that she had filed for divorce from her husband.

Boebert went back to school to get her GED before she was elected to Congress in 2020.
