Andy Cohen recently took to Instagram Threads to send a cheeky Easter message, targeting Kristi Noem’s husband, Bryon, with a subtle jab. The 57-year-old television host, known for his outspoken nature, addressed ‘married MAGA bros’ in his holiday post, adding a layer of humor to the mix.
Just days before, it emerged through the Daily Mail that Bryon Noem, the former Department of Homeland Security Secretary’s husband, had been involved in a scandal. Allegedly, he sent photos of himself wearing fake breasts and tight clothing to fetish porn models online, which sparked quite the conversation.
In his Threads post, Cohen wittily remarked, “Wishing all my tig-bitted married MAGA bro’s a Happy Easter!” This comment was not only a playful dig but also highlighted Cohen’s ongoing critique of the Trump administration and its affiliates.
Cohen, who has never shied away from expressing his opinions, also posted more about the Noem situation on his Threads account. When the news first surfaced earlier that week, he quipped, “Kristi Noem’s husband being a cross-dresser was not on my bingo card!” His response underscored the unexpected nature of the revelations.
The Bravo host – who has been vocal about his criticism towards the Trump administration – also shared additional posts about Noem to his Threads account.
When the news first broke about her husband on Tuesday, Cohen had written: ‘Kristi Noem’s husband being a cross dresser was not on my bingo card!’

The post comes just days after the Daily Mail revealed that the ex-DHS Secretary’s husband Bryon had sent compromising pictures of himself wearing fake breasts in tight clothing to fetish porn models online
Cohen wrote in his Threads comment: ‘Wishing of all my tig-bitted married MAGA bro’s a Happy Easter!’
He uploaded more messages including ‘Happy April Fool’s day to Kristi Noem!’ and ‘How are all my tig-bitted married MAGA Men today!?!?’
Back in November 2024 after Donald Trump won the U.S. presidential election, Cohen had shared a video that held a unifying tone – despite vocally supporting candidate Kamala Harris.
The star asked his son – who was five at the time – to give his ‘take on the election,’ and he replied with, ‘Donald [Trump] winned.’
Cohen then told his son with a small smile, ‘He did. And what do you think? Well, we love our country, don’t we? We love our country, yes we do. We will persist, we will move forward.’
Earlier this week on Tuesday, the Daily Mail published a trove of explicit messages as well as photos where Bryon appears to have stuffed two balloons inside his shirt to resemble breasts.
Some photos show the father-of-three puckering his lips into the camera. In another picture, he is seen wearing figure-hugging green leggings.
When reached for comment, Bryon did not deny having explicit conversations or sharing photos of himself dressed as a woman.
The Daily Mail also asked Bryon if his indiscreet comments about his wife could have endangered national security by exposing her to the threat of blackmail.

Should politicians’ family scandals affect their national security clearance and public trust?

‘Yeah, I made no comments like that, that would lead to that,’ Bryon replied. ‘I deny the second part of that.’
Bryon sent his secret roster of online acquaintances at least $25,000 via Cash App and PayPal.
A spokesman for Noem claimed that the family was ‘blindsided’ by Bryon’s cross-dressing history – adding that his wife of 34 years is ‘devastated.’
National security experts said his shocking activity could have left Noem open to blackmail when she was in Trump’s Cabinet.
As head of the nation’s largest law enforcement agency, Noem was entrusted with safeguarding some of the government’s most sensitive national security information.
She was fired by Trump earlier this month after a controversial $220 million taxpayer-funded ‘vanity ad’ campaign was uncovered.

Noem told lawmakers that the President had approved the advertisement to which he furiously denied.
Multiple senior DHS sources familiar told the Daily Mail that knowledge of Bryon’s online activity would have disqualified Noem from receiving her top secret security clearance over fears she could be blackmailed by foreign entities.
‘I can vouch for the blackmail claim,’ one current official said.
‘This would have been a disqualification for national security eligibility for anyone else whose spouse was hiding this.’

A rep for Noem said in a statement to the New York Post on Tuesday: ‘Ms. Noem is devastated.
‘The family was blindsided by this, and they ask for privacy and prayers at the time.’
The former DHS secretary remains in government and is currently serving as Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas – a newly created role focused on Western Hemisphere security.
