Fox News anchor Gillian Turner is back โ and sheโs balancing motherhood, career, and family life like a pro.
A joyful return to the anchor desk
Gillian Turner, 42, made her much-anticipated return to Fox News last week after welcoming her second child, a baby boy named Jack, in December.
Fans saw Turner looking stunning and confident as she joined America Reports, diving right back into major foreign policy coverage.
On Instagram, she gave viewers a glimpse of what life behind the scenes looks like โ and her followers couldnโt get enough of the family moments she shared.
Celebrating Motherโs Day in style
Turner leaned into Motherโs Day celebrations with heartwarming posts featuring her growing family.
She posted an adorable photo of herself lounging in bed with newborn Jack and big sister Lucia Rose, simply captioned “#Momming.”
She also shared hilarious snaps of Lucia Rose dressed up for the holiday โ sporting heart-shaped glasses, a purple top, ruby red shoes, and strutting confidently down the sidewalk.
“Girl dad//natural habitat,” Turner joked in another post showing husband Alex Kramer carrying a tiny pink backpack.
The photos struck a chord with fans, showing a playful and relatable side to the veteran journalist.
First week back โ and already making waves
Turner didnโt just celebrate family milestones โ she also marked her triumphant return to Fox News.
“First day back on air last week, only 2 foreign policy crises #bless,” she joked on her Instagram story, along with a smiling behind-the-scenes snapshot from the Fox studio.
She later posted a glamorous photo of herself reporting live from the Fox News Channel desk, writing: “Made it #phew.”
Turner even shouted out her America Reports cohost:
“With my fave @johnrobertsfox,” she captioned a screenshot of the two anchoring together.
A career built on excellence
Before her successful run in television, Turner built an impressive career in Washington.
She served at the White House National Security Council under both Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama โ a rare bipartisan credential that set her apart when she transitioned into journalism.
Starting at Fox News in 2014 as a national security expert, Turner quickly rose through the ranks.
She covered major events including Prince Harry and Meghan Markleโs royal wedding, and regularly appears on Fox News Sunday, Outnumbered, The Five, and Americaโs Newsroom.
Family life front and center
Turner married entrepreneur Alex Kramer in a private ceremony, and together they are now proud parents to Lucia Rose and baby Jack.
Reflecting on working while pregnant with Lucia in 2021, Turner shared how supported she felt by her Fox colleagues:
“The words of wisdom and encouragement I received from everyone, including people I’d never even met, were just totally unexpected,” she said.
Even during the challenges of the pandemic, Turner described that time as the “most exuberant working period of her life.”
Now, with two little ones at home, Turner is proving once again that sheโs a powerhouse โ at work and at home.
