Lauren Boebert's former husband has come forward to defend her amidst the backlash she has faced following a video of her engaging in inappropriate behavior with her date at a theater.
Jayson Boebert, who was married to the Colorado congresswoman for 18 years before their divorce, has taken partial responsibility for her actions, stating that his years of unfaithfulness contributed to her behavior. In a lengthy apology on Facebook, he expressed his support for his ex-wife and urged her constituents and the nation to give her a chance.
Jayson Boebert acknowledged the truth of their broken marriage and the burden that Lauren has carried for too long. He described her as an exceptional wife, mother, and now grandmother, as well as the hardest working person he knows. He called on the public to forgive her and regain trust, emphasizing that she deserves a chance to redeem herself.
The controversy surrounding Lauren Boebert stems from a video that surfaced last week, showing her taking selfies, dancing wildly, and vaping during a performance of Beetlejuice. When a pregnant woman seated behind her asked her to stop, Boebert responded by insulting her.
She and her date were subsequently kicked out of the theater, with her date offering to buy the pregnant woman cocktails as an apology. Boebert further exacerbated the situation by flipping off the ushers as she left.
Initially, Boebert denied the claims of vaping and downplayed the incident. However, she later attributed her behavior to her public and difficult divorce. She expressed remorse for her actions and acknowledged the challenges she has faced during this personal time for her and her family.
Boebert's ongoing divorce from Jayson, who has admitted to being unfaithful, has been described as devastating. He took full responsibility for the breakdown of their marriage, acknowledging his selfish and thoughtless actions. He also refuted claims that Boebert left him for fame or a new lifestyle, stating that such suggestions were far from the truth.
It was revealed that Boebert has been secretly dating Quinn Gallagher, a divorced father, for several months. Boebert attributed her behavior at the theater to her overly animated personality, stating that she was simply having a fantastic time but was asked to settle down. She also criticized the media for focusing on her actions instead of more pressing issues, such as the impeachment inquiry and the government shutdown.
Boebert's campaign manager, Drew Sexton, confirmed that she is indeed a supporter of the performing arts and enjoyed a performance of Beetlejuice over the weekend. He dismissed the rumors as salacious and emphasized that Boebert's personal interests should not overshadow her political responsibilities.
