Conservative political commentator Tomi Lahren was suspended from The Blaze after admitting she was pro-choice on ABC's The View, according to multiple reports.

It was immediately not clear if the suspension was directly linked to the abortion remarks, but the timing has raised eyebrows.

Lahren, 24, drew criticism from Blaze reporters and Blaze founder Glenn Beck after calling pro-life conservatives hypocrites for advocating small government, but also wanting to control women's bodies.

"I'm someone that is for limited government, so I can't sit here and be a hypocrite and say I'm for limited government, but I think that the government should decide what women do with their bodies," Lahren said.

Beck has tweeted negatively about Lahren several times since the interview.

Lahren herself appeared to confirm her suspension in a series of tweets, including re-tweeting an article saying she had been suspended.

The Blaze's Managing Editor Leon Wolf confirmed to CNNMoney that Lahren's show would not be produced this week.

Lahren rose to prominence during the 2016 U.S. election for her provocative and energetic online political monologues.
