and pushed their online feud into deeply personal territory on Friday, with Owens name-dropping Loomer's husband on X and Loomer firing back that her life and marriage are "great" and that she "loves" her husband.

The exchange marked another sharp turn in a dispute that had already moved beyond politics. Loomer had previously made remarks about Owens' children, and Owens responded by insulting Loomer and misgendering her as "Larry" before asking, "How's the wedding planning going w. , btw? Does he know you're not actually Jewish?"

The husband Owens identified has not been publicly confirmed. A LinkedIn profile with the name Andrew Simpson was shared on X by a user who suggested it might belong to Loomer's husband, but there was no widely verified public information as of Friday confirming Simpson's identity or any relationship to Loomer.

Loomer answered the jab with a pointed message of her own, writing, "But my husband will likely father more children than your allegedly homosexual husband. Did you use a turkey baster? Who squeezed it?" The language pushed the spat farther into the gutter, where both women have increasingly taken it.

The feud has been building for some time. The article says Loomer's husband was still unknown to the general public, even though she shared news of her engagement in after congratulated her on the engagement. That public congratulations gave the moment a political sheen, but it did not settle who her husband was.

That is what makes Friday's exchange matter now: Owens used the name Andrew Simpson in a public attack, while Loomer flatly rejected the idea that her personal life was in question. For now, the only confirmed facts are the insults, the engagement announcement and the absence of any widely verified record tying Simpson to Loomer.
