Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has publicly announced her engagement to Brian Glenn, a news reporter known for his fervent support of former President Donald Trump. The couple shared the news on Elon Musk's social media platform X on Monday evening, 16 December 2024.
A MAGA Power Couple's Announcement
The pair revealed their engagement with a beaming photograph taken at a favourite restaurant, showcasing Greene's new ring. "She said yes," Glenn wrote in his post, directly tagging the Georgia representative. Greene responded enthusiastically with, "Happily ever after!!! I love you @brianglenntv!!!" The announcement drew congratulations from prominent figures like conservative talk show host Megyn Kelly.
Brian Glenn has carved out a significant role as a pro-Trump propagandist, serving as the chief White House correspondent for the Real America's Voice network. His reporting style, which involves enthusiastically echoing White House talking points, has earned him remarkable access. This was highlighted earlier this month when Trump told him during a press conference, "We love you, Brian," to which Glenn replied, "Oh, I love you too, Mr. President."
From Rally Romance to Washington Life
According to a profile in The Washington Post, Glenn first noticed Greene at a Trump rally in 2022, describing her as "mystical — like a unicorn." He was reportedly drawn to her Georgian accent, blue eyes, and what he called her "very gentle, almost angelic soul." The couple bonded over shared interests including shooting guns, exercise, and rock music.
They began dating publicly in early 2023, shortly after each initiated divorce proceedings from their previous spouses. Glenn has consistently defended Greene's character, telling the Post, "People don’t see the side of Marjorie that I do... When you take her out of politics, she’s sweet." This perspective contrasts sharply with Greene's national reputation for making strident statements about various groups.
The couple eventually moved into an apartment together in Washington D.C., though Glenn has expressed dislike for the capital, calling it "a demonic town." Their relationship even impacted Glenn's professional conduct; he had to stop interviewing Greene for Right Side Broadcasting Network after kissing her on the cheek during a live broadcast.
Navigating Political Turbulence
The engagement comes during a notably awkward period for the couple, stemming from Greene's recent, explosive fallout with Donald Trump. The former president has labelled Greene a "Traitor" after she criticised him for not releasing more documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein case.
This rift has placed Glenn in a difficult position, caught between his fiancée and the political figure he has ardently supported. Last month, he posted a poignant photograph of himself standing alone after a Trump rally, captioning it to suggest the image represented his current situation.
Looking forward, Glenn has stated he will cease reporting on the White House and plans to relocate to Georgia with Greene, citing a desire to avoid constant travel between the state and the U.S. capital. This move signifies a major personal and professional shift for the reporter, as the newly engaged couple consolidates their life together away from the political epicentre.
