In a delightful turn of events, Fox News personality Greg Gutfeld has welcomed a baby girl with his wife, Elena. The exciting news was shared on Tuesday, December 10, during an episode of *The Five*, where Gutfeld’s co-hosts revealed the joyful announcement with a touch of humor, perfectly in line with Gutfeld’s signature wit.
Dana Perino, one of Gutfeld’s *The Five* co-hosts, delivered the news on-air, reading a lighthearted statement from the proud new dad. “You might have noticed that our friend Greg Gutfeld hasn’t been here for a couple of weeks,” Perino began. “And it’s for a good reason. This is a statement he sent me today, so I’m reading this as if I am Greg.”
In classic Gutfeld fashion, the statement blended heartwarming sentiment with his trademark humor. “‘It is with great joy that my wife, Elena, and I have welcomed a baby girl into the world. Mira is healthy with a real set of lungs. She has Elena’s beautiful eyes and my rock-hard abs,’” Perino read, prompting laughter from her fellow panelists.
The statement continued, “‘We are hard at work teaching her three languages and putting her through a rigorous workout routine. She’s already very observant and has asked if Jesse wears a toupee. I told her he definitely wears a wig.’”
Gutfeld signed off with a quip about his French Bulldog, Gus: “‘As you can understand, we value our privacy and we thank everyone for the good wishes. And now I have to go stop Gus from licking her face.’”
Co-host Jesse Watters chimed in to congratulate Gutfeld, adding his own humorous touch. “Congratulations, Greg, Elena, and Mira—welcome to the world! Enjoy this time together. Some of us miss you. Others are enjoying the time without you. Take as long as you want,” he joked.
The announcement sparked an outpouring of congratulations and support on social media. Fans of *The Five* expressed their joy and relief, ending weeks of speculation about Gutfeld’s absence from the show.
“GREG GUTFELD HAD A BABY!!! THE MYSTERY IS OVER!!!!! #TheFive Congrats @greggutfeld,” one X (formerly Twitter) user exclaimed.
Another shared, “The mystery of Greg Gutfeld’s whereabouts is over! Greg and his wife welcomed a baby girl, Mira, into the world. She apparently has a solid set of lungs and Greg’s abs. Congrats @greggutfeld.”
One fan highlighted how well the news had been kept under wraps, writing, “Greg Gutfeld and his wife had a baby. That’s why he has been missing for the last few weeks. I think he’s going to be gone several more weeks. Boy, they kept that one under wraps. Congratulations, Greg, but we miss you!”
While viewers eagerly await Gutfeld’s return to their screens, this joyous chapter marks an exciting new beginning for him and his family. Congratulations, Greg and Elena, on your newest addition, Mira!
