A pre-wedding gathering in Palm Beach
Fox News hosts Ainsley Earhardt and Sean Hannity are scheduled to marry Saturday after celebrating with relatives, friends and colleagues at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, on Friday. CNN reported the planned wedding date, while Fox News confirmed the pre-wedding gathering at President Donald Trump’s private club. [1] [2]
Trump and first lady Melania Trump attended the Friday event. Fox News said other guests included Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Sen. Tim Scott, Fox News Media chief executive Suzanne Scott and several of Earhardt’s Fox & Friends colleagues. The guest list reflected the couple’s overlapping roles in conservative media and Republican political circles. [1] [2]
Hannity told Fox News that the couple paid fair market value to use the venue. That detail addressed the unusual overlap between a private celebration hosted at a sitting president’s club and the presence of two prominent television personalities who regularly cover national politics. The wedding itself was expected Saturday, but the reports did not disclose a ceremony location or other private arrangements. [1] [2] [3]
From colleagues to an engagement
Earhardt and Hannity announced their engagement in December 2024 after Hannity proposed at their church. At the time, the couple said their children and former spouses supported the engagement. Their relationship had become public after years of speculation; People reported that they attended a colleague’s wedding together in 2019, while Vanity Fair later reported that they had been dating.

The two maintained a long-distance relationship while continuing their television work. Earhardt lives and works primarily in New York as a co-host of Fox & Friends, while Hannity relocated to Florida and hosts his prime-time program from the state. In an interview published earlier in October, Hannity rejected rumors that they had already married and said they did not plan to hold the ceremony at either the White House or Mar-a-Lago. [4] [6]
Two long careers at Fox News
Earhardt joined Fox News in 2007 after local-news work in Columbia, South Carolina, and San Antonio. She became a co-host of Fox & Friends in 2016. Hannity has been with the network since its 1996 launch and has hosted the program Hannity since 2009, making both fixtures of the channel’s daily lineup. [2] [4]
Their wedding joins two of Fox News’ best-known on-air brands while preserving separate professional roles: Earhardt remains on the network’s morning show and Hannity continues in prime time. The confirmed news at publication was the Friday celebration and the planned Saturday ceremony; no verified report had yet established that the wedding had taken place. [1] [2]
