Perry Greene also asked for the divorce to be filed under seal. His papers state, “the record will contain sensitive personal and financial information, the public disclosure of which would negatively impact the parties’ privacy interests.”
A spokesperson for Marjorie Taylor Greene told Insider the subject is a, “private and personal matter.”
The congresswoman stated, “Marriage is a wonderful thing and I’m a firm believer in it. Our society is formed by a husband and wife creating a family to nurture and protect. Together, Perry and I formed our family and raised three great kids. He gave me the best job title you can ever earn: Mom. I’ll always be grateful for how great of a dad he is to our children.”
Perry Greene praised Marjorie to Insider as a “great mom” and “best friend for the last 29 years.”
“Our family is our most important thing we have done. As we go on different paths we will continue to focus on our 3 incredible kids and their future endeavors and our friendship.”
Reaction to Marjorie Taylor Greene divorce news
Online, many have speculated on the timing of the divorce.
One has to wonder why @RepMTG’s husband of 27 years needed to divorce her suddenly right now, 6 weeks before the election.

Makes you wonder what the final breaking point was for Marjorie Taylor Greene’s husband. He stuck it out for an insurrection and everything.

Interesting that he decided not to wait the 6 weeks until the election is over.

Others think it a bit rich of Rep. Greene to ask for privacy during this difficult time in her personal life.
Marjorie Taylor Greene, who stalked Parkland shooting survivors, would like the media to respect her privacy during this difficult time.

Hey Marjorie Taylor Greene — you’re guilty of stalking and harassing High School shooting survivors — so you’re sure AF not entitled to privacy ‘during this difficult time’.

If Biden ever got divorced, we’d never hear the end of it from her.

And some offered sympathy… with caveats.
I’m not happy that Marjorie Taylor Greene is getting divorced. All marriages are hard work and having them end is devastating for everyone.
I can admit that, and still say she is a dangerous, traitorous, hateful, corrupt grifter who does not deserve the platform she’s been given.— John Pavlovitz (@johnpavlovitz) September 29, 2022

“the record will contain sensitive personal and financial information”
“Financial” = “we’ve been doing unethical and possibly illegal stuff”
Mister P
God’s vengeance for her disparaging remarks about the LGBTQ+ community.

I didn’t know she was married, let alone for 27 years. How old is she anyway?
abfab
In dog years, about 450.
bachy
LOL

I don’t even know where to begin. Yes I do. F$CK YOUR PRIVACY!

Why do I suspect she’s going to be the blue dress for Donald Trump?

Ah yes, true family values and the sanctity of (hetero) marriage! Enough said. Well, until her husband introduces his new BOYFRIEND.

…who will happen to be Lauren Boebert’s newly divorced husband… HA!
abfab
She has offspring?

Three. But you gotta keep ’em separated.

I hope the media chases her down like she did David Hogg, the Parkland shooting survivor. She doesn’t deserve respect or privacy.

Or she needs to be kicked from behind like she did to the teenage girl. And adult woman kicking a child, what about that makes her a wonderful ‘mom’?….more like a motherf**ker.
Max
as Nelson would say: ha ha

Greene’s hubby probably found out she’s been munching on Boebert’s coochie and giving Cruz and Gaetz handies. Hope the media gives her zero privacy on this.
Mr. Stadnick
Are the grounds for divorce Stupidity? Because she is truly one of if not the stupidest women in the USA.
woodroad34
She and her husband own a construction company and I wonder if they’re losing business because of her (apparently she doesn’t actually do anything at the company). She’s sprayed her whole family with a stank that a skunk can’t stand.
KetynPorta
Way what is this a news and not the gringo hypocrisy of Biden in the actual war with Russia for NWO. Meanwhile the Europeans of shit are so obsessed creating more poverty in Latin America and Africa countries. All for they thought they are the people chosen as hitlers and Jews thought

Huh. Whaddayaknow. Bet she’s a closet carpet muncher.

What took her husband so long to divorce this absolute scumbag of a human???? And Marjorie asking for privacy now???? This is insane from someone who stalked high school kids who survived a school shooting, mocks transgender people, and is just a vile thing. Shut up, MTG and get ready to prepare your WalMart application when you get voted out of office.
johncp56
This poor excuse for a Moose knuckle!! MTG; Needs to get voted out, the hate misinformation from her and few others is beyond criminal guns guns guns and hate is all I ever here, no ideas how to feed the children health care, road bridge repairs nothing but sick hate of others, even her husband has had taking her scummy dick,
