A Washington, DC, mom says her political-consultant husband left her for Rep. Ilhan Omar, according to a bombshell divorce filing obtained by The Post.

Dr. Beth Jordan Mynett says her cheating spouse, Tim Mynett, told her in April that he was having an affair with the Somali-born US representative and that he even made a "shocking declaration of love" for the Minnesota congresswoman before he ditched his wife, alleges the filing, submitted in DC Superior Court on Tuesday.

The physician, 55, and her 38-year-old husband — who has worked for left-wing Democrats such as Omar and her Minnesota predecessor, Keith Ellison — have a 13-year-old son together.

"The parties physically separated on or about April 7, 2019, when Defendant told Plaintiff that he was romantically involved with and in love with another woman, Ilhan Omar," the court papers say.

Beth Mynett told her husband that she still loved him and was "willing to fight for the marriage" even after his admission, according to the court papers. The pair had been living together for six years before marrying in 2012, the filing said.

But Tim Mynett told her he was through, the suit says.

Omar — a member of "the Squad," a group of far left-leaning female freshman House members including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and two others — recently separated from her husband, according to reports.

The 37-year-old congresswoman and mom of three paid Tim Mynett and his E. Street Group approximately $230,000 through her campaign since 2018 for fundraising consulting, digital communications, internet advertising and travel expenses.

Omar was spotted enjoying time with Tim Mynett at a California restaurant in March.

Beth Mynett is seeking primary physical custody of her and her husband's son in part because of Tim Mynett's "extensive travel" with Omar, the document says.

"Defendant's more recent travel and long work hours now appear to be more related to his affair with Rep. Omar than with his actual work commitments," the court papers state.

The doctor also argued that she doesn't trust her estranged husband's judgment with their son — in part because of his relationship with Omar.

"By way of example, days prior to Defendant's devastating and shocking declaration of love for Rep. Omar and admission of their affair, he and Rep. Omar took the parties' son to dinner in order to formally meet for the first time at the family's favorite neighborhood restaurant while Plaintiff was out of town," the papers state.

"Rep. Omar gave the parties' son a gift and the Defendant later brought her back inside the family's home," the papers add.

Beth Mynett added in the filing that the most concerning thing about the jaunt was her hubby's decision to "put his son in harm's way" by taking him out in public with Omar, "who at that time garnered a plethora of media attention along with death threats."

The physician is also seeking full control of the couple's DC home, child support and legal fees to be paid by Tim Mynett, according to the filing.

Tim Mynett and Omar did not immediately return messages seeking comment.

Omar's husband, Ahmed Hirsi, is a former banker who was hired as a senior policy aide to a Minnesota city councilwoman last year, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported at the time. Omar was previously married to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi.

President Trump has repeated a claim that the union with Elmi was illegal immigration fraud because he is her brother and that they wed so he could obtain American citizenship. Omar called that allegation "absolutely false and ridiculous."
