Carley Shimkus Stunned Silent by Dana Perino’s Secret Gift on Fox & Friends—What’s the Heart-Melting Surprise That Left Her Teary-Eyed? Fans Can’t Stop Talking About the Painting That’s Got Everyone Emotional!
On April 10, 2025, Fox & Friends First turned into a tearjerker when Carley Shimkus, 38, was blindsided by a gift from co-host Dana Perino, 52, live at 5:47 a.m. PDT. The usually unflappable Shimkus froze, eyes glistening, as Perino unveiled a stunning portrait of Carley’s son, Brock, painted by Dana’s sister, Angie. “I’m blown away,” Carley gasped, clutching the canvas—Brock’s big blue eyes staring back in pajamas, crawling on a bed. X exploded: “Carley and Dana’s bond is everything!” What’s the story behind this heart-tugger?
The moment aired unexpectedly during a light segment. Perino, grinning slyly, handed over the artwork, saying, “Angie captured our miracle boy!” Shimkus, mom to Brock since February 3, 2023, with husband Peter Buchignani, couldn’t speak—just hugged Dana tight. “I’m smiling ear to ear,” she later posted on Instagram, tagging Perino and Angie. “Dana’s thoughtfulness, Angie’s talent—it’s unreal!” Fans flooded her comments: “That’s Brock to a T!” and “Angie’s a genius—what a keepsake!” Perino chimed in, “Brock’s our blue-eyed star!”—a nod to her ongoing adoration.
The painting’s backstory? Perino, co-anchor of America’s Newsroom and The Five, brainstormed with Angie, a skilled artist, to surprise Carley. “We love Brock like family,” Dana told The U.S. Sun post-show. Angie, thrilled, replied to Carley’s post, “So glad you love it!” The portrait, unveiled at 30 Rock, wasn’t just art—it was a love letter to Shimkus’ journey as a new mom, balancing 1:15 a.m. wake-ups for Fox & Friends First with raising Brock, baptized August 20, 2024. “Thank you, Lord, for this boy,” Carley captioned that milestone.
Fans see deeper ties. Perino’s mentored Shimkus since her 2012 Fox debut—calling her “best mama” on Instagram last year. Their chemistry’s a ratings draw—Fox & Friends First holds 400,000 viewers, per Nielsen. “Seems like great coworkers!” one X user gushed. Another mused, “Dana’s gift says ‘you’re not alone.’” At 7:24 p.m. PDT today, the clip’s viral—1.2 million views on X—proof this wasn’t just a moment, but a testament to Fox’s tight-knit crew.
Is this a one-off, or a hint of more surprises? Shimkus, back from a brief March break, hinted on air, “Dana’s full of tricks!” Perino just winked. For now, Brock’s portrait—those piercing eyes—sits as a symbol: even at 5 a.m., heart matters. Fans can’t get enough, and neither can we.

Where’s her baby? She’s a mother.’ ‘Should a mother be acting like this? Grow up,’” Timpf recounted.
