Benjamin Hall and his wife, Alicia, have welcomed a new addition to their family.
Recently The Fox News journalist, who survived life-threatening injuries while covering the war in Ukraine, is now celebrating the arrival of their fourth child, a baby girl named Sage Scarlett Jennifer Hall.
Born on Friday, September 6, Sage weighed in at 5 lbs. 15 oz. Reflecting on her name, Hall shared that “someone sage is calm and wiseโI hope our Sage will embody those qualities.” He also noted that the term “sage” historically referred to a healer, making the name particularly meaningful given the challenges he has faced in recent years.
Hall expressed his hopes for his daughter, saying, “We live in a world that moves too fast, where people rarely take the time to think, learn, and reflect. I hope Sage, along with all our daughters, will challenge that and bring wisdom into their lives and the world around them.”
Hall shared that their three older daughtersโHonor, Iris, and Heroโhave eagerly taken on the role of babysitters, each vying for their turn to hold their new sister.
“Thereโs already a battle over which one gets to hold her,” he revealed. Even their family dog, Bosco, has shown excitement over the newest addition, playfully tossing a ball in anticipation of future games.
The moment Hall held his daughter for the first time, he knew nothing in the world was more important than family. “Nothing,” he emphasized. He hopes to raise his daughter to be kind, considerate, inquisitive, and brave, instilling in her the values of hard work and perseverance.
Reflecting on his experience in Ukraine and the injuries he endured, Hall sees Sage as a powerful symbol of resilience. “She is a reminder that nothing can hold you back,” he shared. “Even if you’re knocked down, you can rebuildโstronger and better than before.”
