Kellyanne Conway Berates Meghan McCain Over Marriage Comments: Report

Kellyanne Conway was heard castigating Meghan McCain last week, reportedly taking her to task for past comments made about her marriage, according to the Daily Beast.

After appearing on the same panel during The Washington Post’s post-election Global Women’s Summit last Thursday, Conway confronted McCain, a onetime host of “The View.”

According to onlookers, Donald Trump insider Conway left McCain shaken after being scolded for calling Conway’s marriage to George Conway “gross” during a slew of years-old television appearances.

As one witness told the Daily Beast, “Kellyanne walked up to Meghan and said, ‘I wasn’t going to say this while I was miked but do you remember what you said about me and my marriage on ‘The View’? You called my marriage ‘gross.’”

“Meghan looked shaken and was just trying to get out of there,” the observer later added.

Both Republican insiders acknowledged the encounter in statements to the Daily Beast.

Conway explained how she “waited until the cameras and microphones were off to privately and calmly address the very public insults she has directed at my family.”

McCain squirmed at the idea of Conway’s marriage during a 2020 appearance on Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live” and on “The View.”

Kellyanne Conway scolded Meghan McCain after they appeared together on a panel at The Washington Post’s Global Women’s Summit last Thursday.

Going on the offensive, she went on to say that McCain “may wish to outrun her recent past as a years-long resident Mean Girl on ‘The View’ and Bravo, where her mouth was a spigot of vile and bile hurled toward people and topics she does not know,” namely Conway’s marriage and children.

For her part, McCain told the Daily Beast, “It was a bizarre experience and certainly not what I expected when I accepted an invitation to speak at an event hosted by The Washington Post and Tina Brown.”

“The only reason why their marriage was ever a hot topic was because they were constantly airing their dirty laundry to America,” she went on.

McCain was referring to Conway’s previous public clashes with both her daughter Claudia Conway and her ex-husband, never-Trump conservative George Conway.

While the couple announced they were divorcing in spring of 2023, Claudia Conway and her mother made amends after tensions between the two peaked around the 2020 election.

The mother-daughter duo opened up about being on opposite ends of the political spectrum during a September episode of Fox Nation’s “Here’s The Deal with Kellyanne Conway.”

“I can look at you and love you even though you have a different political opinion than I do,” Claudia Conway told her mom. “And we can be humans at the end of the day. The divisiveness and the lack of unity in our political atmosphere right now is what is going to drive us further apart.”
