Jayson Boebert is the husband of Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert and the father of their four sons. The 40-year-old former oil and gas worker helps run their gun-themed restaurant, Shooters Grill, in their home state of Colorado.
Boebert’s wife was elected to represent Colorado’s 3rd congressional district in 2020 and was sworn into office in 2021. Lauren Boebert, 34, and Jayson Boebert live in Silt, Colorado.
Jayson Boebert and Lauren Boebert were married in 2005, according to her campaign’s website. The couple met after Jayson Boebert moved to Colorado from Las Vegas, Nevada, where he grew up, The Herald Times wrote.
She told the newspaper, “We had to develop conservative values over the years. We learned that when times get tough, we buckle down and get tougher.”
Jayson and Lauren Boebert have four sons together. According to the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel, their eldest son was born when Lauren Boebert was 18, shortly after she had dropped out of high school to get a job to help her family.
According to The Herald Times, the Boeberts kids were 14, 12, 10 and 7 in January 2020 when Lauren Boebert entered the congressional race. She told the newspaper her sons attend a private school in Glenwood Springs.
The couple’s third son, Kaydon, was born in July 2009 in the front seat of Jayson Boebert’s pickup truck, according to The Aspen Times. “When we got to New Castle my water broke, and I started pushing and couldn’t stop. By the time we got to the West Glenwood exit, the baby’s head was out,” Lauren Boebert told the newspaper.
“I was just trying not to panic. I was really scared, but I knew I couldn’t be. My body kept pushing, and I couldn’t stop. I caught him and pulled him up to my chest, and told Jayson to just keep going. Everyone was a mess when we pulled up to the ER, not really knowing what to do next.”
