Republican Sen. Ted Cruz's daughter has been taken to the hospital after she had self-inflicted stab wounds.

Police were called to Cruz's residence on a Tuesday night. Authorities at the time did not say whether the incident was related to the Republican senator's daughters, aged 14 and 11.

A spokesperson for Cruz confirmed the incident and regarded it as a family matter. His office said in a statement that "their daughter is okay" and that there were no serious injuries inflicted.

The family requests for the media to respect Cruz's daughter's privacy at the moment, the statement added.

It was uncertain who was the one who contacted the authorities at their home when the incident occurred.

At the time, police said that there was no evidence of a crime.

The Republican senator was in Washington at the time of the incident. He lives in the River Oaks neighborhood with his wife Heidi.

It was unknown whether Cruz will be flying back home to Houston to tend to the family emergency.

Ted Cruz's Daughter

Sen. Ted Cruz has two daughters identified as 14-year-old Caroline and 11-year-old Catherine.

Caroline went viral in early 2022 after she answered followers' questions on a TikTok post regarding what it was like to be a daughter of a senator and be in the public eye.

The 14-year-old said at the time in a TikTok video that she disagrees with her father's stances on "almost everything."

She added that she complained about her lack of privacy, saying that she has security following her everywhere she goes.

Cruz's elder daughter also complained that they photoshopped her family's Christmas card to make her top appear longer than it was.

Caroline also expressed her disapproval of being judged for who her father is.

However, she acknowledged that one of the pros of being the daughter of the Republican senator is that they get to travel sometimes.

The said TikTok video has since been deleted from her account.

Aside from her opinion on her father's stance, Caroline also shared on TikTok early this year that she was bisexual.

Republican Sen. Ted Cruz

Recently, the Republican lawmaker denounced former U.S. President Donald Trump after he suggested the "termination" of the Constitution to overturn the 2020 election results, wherein the former president lost to U.S. President Joe Biden.

Cruz said that what Trump said "was wrong," but when on to say that the media is engaged "in a feeding frenzy."

He added that he has never seen reporters being ecstatic to every Republican and say, "please attack Donald Trump."

Cruz is a self-proclaimed constitutionalist priding himself to have memorized the document as a youth.

Other Republicans called out the former president's post on Truth Social such as Sen. John Cornyn.

Cornyn called Trump's statement "irresponsible." He added that the said "termination" remark could harm the former president becoming the Republican presidential nominee for the 2024 presidential elections.
