Fox News Hosts Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt Tie the Knot at Wedding Attended by Political and Media Luminaries

Fox News anchors Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt exchanged vows on Saturday at the Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, Florida. The ceremony concluded a high-profile weekend of celebrations that drew prominent figures from the Republican Party and the media industry to the southeastern coast. Earhardt, 50, wore an Oscar de la Renta gown during the service at the century-old Gothic-style sanctuary, which serves as the oldest existing congregation in Palm Beach. The couple had been engaged for nearly two years before tying the knot. Following the religious service, guests moved to the nearby Everglades Club for a reception. The exclusive members-only venue prohibits patrons from bringing cell phones onto the property. The event marked the second consecutive day of political activity in the area, following a Friday night gathering at Mar-a-Lago. That earlier party featured President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump. Also present at the rehearsal dinner were Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his wife Jeanette, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his wife Cheryl Hines, and Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina. Although the President attended the Friday dinner, he did not participate in the Saturday wedding or reception. At the time of the ceremony, Trump was in Georgia campaigning for midterm candidates. Hannity stated that he has maintained a personal relationship with the President for over three decades. In a statement, Hannity explained that hosting the dinner at Mar-a-Lago was important because he wanted the President to be part of the celebration. He noted that the couple paid fair market value for the venue. Guests at both events included numerous Fox News personalities. Attendees listed in reports include Eric and Lara Trump, South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, sports journalist Sage Steele, fitness trainer Jillian Michaels, ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith, casino owner Steve Wynn, and country singer Lee Greenwood. Greenwood reportedly performed her hit "God Bless the USA" at the reception. Fox News leadership and staff also attended, including "Fox & Friends" co-hosts Steve Doocy, Lawrence Jones, and Brian Kilmeade, along with Laura Ingraham, Bret Baier, contributor Karoline Leavitt, CEO Suzanne Scott, and network president Jay Wallace. The pair began dating publicly in 2020 after working as colleagues and friends at the network. They announced their engagement in December 2024. Hannity proposed to Earhardt at the same Palm Beach church over Christmas in 2024. To manage their long-distance relationship, the couple traveled frequently between states. Hannity relocated to South Florida permanently in 2024. He owns two townhouses in Palm Beach and a waterfront residence in Manalapan, properties purchased for a combined total of $44 million. His television program is produced from a Florida studio located on one of these properties. Earhardt remained based in New York City due to her role on "Fox & Friends," which records in Manhattan. Hannity, 64, previously divorced his first wife, Jill Rhodes, in 2015. They share two children, Patrick, 27, and Merri, 25. Earhardt has a daughter named Hayden, age 10, from a prior relationship. In a joint sentiment expressed through individual statements, both hosts credited faith for bringing them together. Earhardt described the experience as a dream come true, expressing gratitude for being surrounded by loved ones. Hannity emphasized that faith, family, and friendship are paramount in life. He called Earhardt an incredible person and expressed deep happiness regarding their union. The couple’s nuptials follow a similar pattern seen in 2019 when former Fox News host Pete Hegseth married his producer at a Trump-owned golf club in New Jersey, an event attended by both Trump and Hannity.
