Fox News hosts Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt married Saturday at Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, attended by Trump's inner circle.
Fox News' Biggest Names Say 'I Do' at Their Home Church
Sean Hannity, 64, and Ainsley Earhardt, 50, were married on Saturday, Oct. 24, at the Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, Florida — the same church where they got engaged in December 2024, Fox News confirmed.
In a joint statement shared with the network, the couple said their hearts were "overflowing with love and gratitude" and that exchanging vows in their home church, surrounded by their children, families and dearest friends, was "more meaningful than we could have ever imagined."
Earhardt wore an Oscar de la Renta gown, the fashion house whose founder dressed first ladies from Jacqueline Kennedy to Hillary Clinton.
A Guest List Straight Out of the Trump Orbit
What makes this celebrity wedding unusual is how thoroughly it doubled as a gathering of political power.
Fox News said Earhardt's "Fox & Friends" co-hosts Steve Doocy, Lawrence Jones and Brian Kilmeade attended, alongside Laura Ingraham, Mark Levin, Dana Perino, Bret Baier, Harris Faulkner, Emily Compagno, Bill Hemmer, Martha MacCallum, Kayleigh McEnany, Carley Shimkus, Trey Gowdy — and, per AOL, network chief executive Suzanne Scott.
AOL reports the political attendees included Eric and Lara Trump, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino, former press secretary Karoline Leavitt, UN ambassador Mike Waltz, Senator Tim Scott and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
President Trump himself was not at the service, according to AOL, but had hosted the couple the night before.
Trump and Melania Turned Up at Mar-a-Lago the Night Before
The celebrations began Friday, Oct. 23, with a party at Trump's Mar-a-Lago club that the president and first lady attended, USA TODAY reports.
Hannity told Fox News he has had a personal relationship with Trump for over 30 years, that it was important the president could be part of the celebration, and that the couple "paid fair market value" for the venue.
AOL adds that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. were also at the Mar-a-Lago party, and quotes Trump telling reporters Friday, "They're doing a big, beautiful thing."
Hannity is widely seen as one of Trump's closest media confidants, and AOL notes he bought a house near Mar-a-Lago in 2021.
From a 2024 Engagement to a Blended Fox News Family
The couple confirmed their engagement during the Christmas holidays in 2024, telling Fox News they were "overjoyed" and had received their children's blessing.
Both are longtime network fixtures: Earhardt joined Fox News in 2007 and co-hosts "Fox & Friends" weekday mornings, while Hannity has been there since 1996 and hosts his eponymous primetime show.
Both were previously married — Hannity to Jill Rhodes from 1993 to 2019, with whom he shares two children, and Earhardt to Kevin McKinney and later Will Proctor, with whom she has a daughter.
Just weeks before the wedding, Hannity told USA TODAY, "I'm engaged to the greatest girl in the world. And I hope she doesn't change her mind." She didn't.
