Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt are taking their relationship to the next level.
The Fox News anchors revealed their engagement during an interview with their network, sharing the happy news that Hannity proposed over the Christmas holiday.
The 62-year-old conservative talk show host popped the question to Earhardt, 48, at their home church. This location was meaningful to the couple, as it reflects the faith that has been a cornerstone of their relationship. Hannity and Earhardt also shared that their children gave their blessings and are thrilled about the engagement.
In a joint statement to Fox News, the couple expressed their gratitude: “We are overjoyed and so thankful to our families for all of their love and support during this wonderful time in our lives.”
Hannity and Earhardt, who have been quietly dating for several years, made a public appearance earlier this month at the Fox Nation 2024 Patriot Awards in Greenvale, New York.
Both plan to maintain their professional commitments while living in separate states. Earhardt will continue her work in New York, where she hosts “Fox & Friends,” while Hannity, who moved to Florida earlier this year, remains a prominent voice in conservative talk radio.
This marks the third marriage for Earhardt and the second for Hannity. Hannity was previously married to Jill Rhodes, with whom he shares two children, a son and daughter. Earhardt has one daughter from her second marriage to Will Proctor, a former Clemson University quarterback. Her first marriage was to Kevin McKinney.
The couple emphasized that their blended families remain on good terms. “We still get along well with our previous spouses,” they said. “Everyone is supportive of each other. We even made them aware of the engagement before announcing it publicly.”
The engagement reflects not just their shared faith and family values, but also the mutual support they’ve found in each other over the years. Both are looking forward to continuing their work at Fox News while celebrating this new chapter in their personal lives.
