Lauren Boebert revealed she has “peacefully” parted ways with her theater date with the bar owner in Aspen after the two were caught on camera fondling each other and were thrown out of a performance of “Beetlejuice” in Denver .
Speaking on Fox News Friday evening, the Colorado congresswoman apologized to her constituents for her behavior.
‘I messed up. I had a date night in 2010. I’m a congressman and a public figure, but believe it or not, I’m also a human being. “Obviously everyone is interested in my personal life because I’m going through a very difficult divorce,” Boebert began.
“It was definitely stressful to broadcast this experience to the whole world. Something that has been left in the dark is certainly heartbreaking to see and I have apologized to my constituents and will continue to do so.”
“To those in Colorado who may have felt let down, I am listening and can only promise to do better.” “I will live and lead with strength, grace and humility.”
In toe-curling footage, Quinn Gallagher was seen groping Boebert’s breasts while she in turn rubbed his crotch.

The footage also showed Boebert waving her hands, singing loudly, taking flash photos and smoking vape before becoming aggressive towards staff who removed her from the theater.
On Friday, Boebert denied that he was drunk at the time of the incident.
“No, I was very excited about the actual musical. I’m a big fan of Beetlejuice. “Everyone should see the musical if it’s near you and please let me know how it ends because I haven’t seen the ending yet,” she joked.
“It’s been 20 years since I was on the dating scene and back then there were no infrared cameras watching my every move. “It’s a lesson learned because I’m truly humbled and sorry to my people and Colorado’s Third District,” she continued.
“It is my responsibility to bring lightness, never gravity, to the lives of my constituents.” My actions should never burden those I represent. Just giving them lightness and offering as many solutions as possible will work. “This whole week has been a total distraction.”
When asked if she was still with her date, Quinn Gallagher, Boebert revealed how the couple broke up.
“I hope we remain friends for a long time, but he and I parted ways peacefully.” He is a very nice man, but at the moment all future dates with him and everyone else have been canceled. I have work to do.’
But when caught up with him in Aspen this week, it seemed like Gallagher might not have gotten that memo.

Gallagher – co-owner of Hooch Craft Cocktail Bar in Aspen – was seen for the first time since we revealed him as Boebert’s “mystery man.” When asked if he and Boebert had really broken up, he remained tight-lipped and smiled slightly.
When asked, he replied: “I’m sorry I can’t say anything about it.”
As he walked away, the congresswoman’s then-boyfriend made a hasty phone call that turned out to be lengthy.
During the visibly animated conversation that followed, he put his head in his hands and gestured in the air more than once.
Dressed in a plaid shirt and jeans, he sometimes paced the sidewalk across from his Aspen bar, while other times he sat at a nearby park table.
He stayed with his head down, engrossed in his phone, texting long after the conversation ended.
Earlier this week, it emerged that Gallagher, identified by , was a registered Democrat whose bar hosted drag shows – which Boebert called immoral.
The 36-year-old grandmother said drag shows go against her Christian faith, tweeting: “Take your kids to CHURCH, not drag bars.”
A source told that 46-year-old Gallagher is a “cool guy” whose relationship with Boebert was a shock, particularly because of his liberal views

Hooch Craft Cocktail Bar in Aspen, co-owned by Gallagher, hosted “a winter Wonderland Burlesque & Drag Show,” according to social media posts.
According to a Facebook post, Aspen Gay Ski Week hosted “an evening of cocktails, appetizers and laughs” in Hooch in January 2020.
It’s not clear when Gallagher and Boebert’s relationship became romantic, but the bar owner is originally from the congresswoman’s hometown of Rifle, Colorado, and still has family there.
It is just a stone’s throw from the controversial congresswoman’s house in Silt.
The controversial congresswoman had originally denied the events at the Denver theater, claiming the e-cigarette smoke was actually from a smoke machine, and issued a sarcastic statement downplaying the anger.
But she made a stunning about-face and blamed her behavior on her “public and difficult divorce.”
“The last few days have been difficult and humiliating, and I am truly sorry,” she wrote in a statement.
“There is no perfect plan for a public and difficult divorce that has become personally challenging for me and my entire family in recent months.”
Boebert, 36, denied vaping – even though he did so in public and in front of cameras. Her spokesman said there had been “a misunderstanding by someone sitting near her” who had not noticed the “powerful smoke machines and electronic cigarettes used during the piece”.
She also danced in her seat, to the annoyance of other theatergoers – including the pregnant woman sitting behind her, who asked her to stop and was called a “sad and miserable woman”.
The ushers were upset that Boebert was taking selfies during the performance
Speaking about the controversy, she also blamed the media for drawing so much attention to her loud behavior.
Boebert’s divorce from Jason, 36, her husband of 18 years and father of her four children, is still ongoing following the couple’s shocking split in May.
Boerbert emphasized at the time that she had always been faithful throughout her marriage.
revealed on Wednesday that Boebert and Gallagher, a divorced father of a 16-year-old son, have been secretly dating for several months.
Surveillance footage from last Sunday’s incident shows Boebert, wearing a tight, low-cut gold dress and high heels, making a fuss as she and Gallagher left the auditorium – she took a selfie as she exited the auditorium and bared at the other person the staff angrily bared their teeth.
She also gave the ushers the finger. The Denver Post spoke with a pregnant woman who said she was sitting behind Boebert but was too afraid to give her name for fear of MAGA reprisals.
The woman claims Boebert said “no” when asked to quit smoking, sang with his hands raised, blew e-cigarette smoke at her, kissed her date and repeatedly recorded videos during the show.
Boebert also allegedly told the complainant that she was a “miserable” person.

The eyewitness claims she asked to be moved during intermission – and theater staff said that wasn’t the only complaint about the unpredictable lawmaker.
The woman also told the Post that Boebert’s lover, Gallagher, offered them cocktails as a peace offering, which she had to decline due to her pregnancy.
According to an incident report, the two received a warning about their behavior during the break.
But five minutes into the second act, security received another complaint about a person being loud and recording the show.
“They told me they weren’t going,” an usher said, according to the report.
“I told them they had to leave the theater and if they didn’t, they were trespassing.”
“The guests said they weren’t going.” I told them I was calling the Denver police. They said go get them.’
Boebert and her smartly dressed date were then caught on camera running away through the empty nighttime streets of Denver.
Outside, Boebert’s outrage quickly evaporates as she holds her new lover’s hand, dances flirtatiously and gyrates for him in the street as they drive through the city – a three-hour drive from Gallagher’s home near Aspen and even further from Boebert’s home in Silt Removes, Colorado.
