On Friday, Fox News personalities Ainsley Earhardt and Sean Hannity hosted a pre‑wedding celebration at Mar‑a‑Lago in Palm Beach, Florida. The evening brought together family, close friends, and numerous Fox News colleagues to honor the couple’s upcoming marriage.
Faith and family at the forefront
Earhardt, co‑host of “FOX & Friends,” expressed deep gratitude, saying, “My heart is overflowing with gratitude and joy. God has blessed us in more ways than we could ever imagine, and I am so thankful that He brought Sean and me together.” Hannity echoed the sentiment, noting, “Faith, family and friendship are what matter most in life.” Both highlighted that the gathering was a celebration of the “beautiful season” of their lives.
Notable guests include President Trump and senior Fox leadership
President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump attended, along with Eric and Lara Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his wife Jeanette, and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his wife Cheryl Hines. Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott, President and Executive Editor Jay Wallace, and Earhardt’s co‑hosts Steve Doocy, Lawrence Jones and Brian Kilmeade were also present.
Hannity explained the choice of venue, stating, “When Ainsley and I began planning this celebration, it was important to us that President Trump could be part of this special time in our lives. We chose to host a party at Mar‑a‑Lago and paid fair market value for the venue.” The couple emphasized that the event was a testament to the relationships they have built over years of service at the network.
Long‑standing careers at Fox News
Earhardt joined Fox News in 2007 and became a co‑host of “FOX & Friends” in 2016. Hannity has been with the network since its launch in 1996, hosting the nightly “Hannity” program and the “Hang Out with Sean Hannity” podcast.

Friends from beyond the newsroom
Among the guests were ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith, country music legend Lee Greenwood, podcast host Sage Steele, fitness personality Jillian Michaels, and casino magnates Steve and Andrea Wynn. The diverse group underscored the couple’s wide‑reaching friendships across media, entertainment, and business.
Looking ahead
