Rep. Lauren Boebert, 36, is now a grandmother.

In March, Boebert announced that her then-17-year-old son Tyler was expecting a baby boy with his girlfriend.

On Thursday, the two-term Colorado Republican revealed that her grandson has been born while discussing her ongoing feud with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Fox News with Sean Hannity.

"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 told Hannity. "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."

A spokesman for Boebert also confirmed the birth of her grandson to Insider.

During her March appearance at the Conservative Political Action Committee's women's breakfast, Boebert said that she and her husband Jayson Boebert were "so excited to welcome this new life," a baby boy due in April.

"Now, any of you who have young children who are giving life, there are some questions that pop up. There's some fear that arises," she said. "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?' 'I said, 'Yes, I did.' He said, 'Well then, it's hereditary.'"

Boebert, who supports criminalizing abortion, told the CPAC audience that when she found out that her son's girlfriend was pregnant, her main concern was whether they would "choose life," and praised high rural teen birth rates as evidence that these communities "value life," Insider's Alia Shoaib reported.

The congresswoman gave birth to Tyler when she was a teenager herself, dropping out of high school in 2004 when she became pregnant at 18. She shares four sons with Jayson Boebert. She filed for divorce in May after nearly 20 years of marriage, citing "irreconcilable differences."

Insider reported in May that one of Tyler's younger teen brothers called 911 from their Colorado home late last year alleging that Jayson Boebert was "throwing" him around the house. Police were dispatched but no arrests were made, and both Boeberts denied that any physical abuse occurred.

Boebert has been in the news this week thanks to her feud with Greene, who on Wednesday called the Colorado Republican a "bitch" on the House floor. "I'm not in middle school," Boebert told CNN when asked about the incident.

The spat stems in part from Boebert's recent resolution to impeach President Joe Biden, which Greene says copies her own recent resolution and was done "purely for fundraising." Tensions between the two date back to at least April 2022, but things reached a fever pitch in January over their disagreement about whether Kevin McCarthy should be speaker of the House.
