Fox News hosts Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt are engaged

Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt, Fox News anchors, are planning to marry. The couple spent the holidays in Hannity's home state of Florida, where they got engaged over Christmas.

"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 told Fox News.

The couple bonded over their deep religion, so Hannity chose the church as the "perfect place" to propose to Earhardt. Soon after the engagement, they met with their minister.

Hannity and Earhardt have supposedly been in a relationship since 2020. A source told People at the time that the couple had "been seeing each other very secretively for years," despite the pair's denial. "It's been an open secret that they have been seeing each other," the source added. "They're together all the time, but in private … for years, not just months."

They have both been married previously, but "still get along well" with their ex-partners: "We actually made them aware this was happening ahead of time."

Hannity has two children with his ex-wife, Jill Rhodes, whom he divorced in 2019. Earhardt has a daughter with ex-husband Will Proctor, and the couple split in 2019. She was formerly married to Kevin McKinney from 2005 to 2009.

"Everyone is supportive of each other," the couple said. They also "couldn't be happier" to receive their children's approval.

The couple has made their relationship work despite long-distance problems as Earhardt co-hosts Fox & Friends in New York while Hannity hosts his own program from Florida.

Hannity began working for the network in 1996, when it was formed, and Earhardt joined in 2007.
