Fox News Host Harris Faulkner and Husband Tony Berlin – A Remarkable Love Journey PROVING that ‘LOVE CONQUERS ALL’!
Harris Faulkner has been married to Tony Berlin since 2003.
The Fox News anchor met her husband in Minneapolis, where he was an investigative reporter for CBS and she was an evening anchor for a local ABC affiliate. While they started out as competitors, they soon became friends.
“We had been friends for like six months,” Faulkner told IN Kansas City in 2024. “And I like to say that May 10, 2001, was the last first date I ever had.”
After a year of dating, Berlin proposed and they tied the knot on April 12, 2003. The couple welcomed their first daughter, Bella Berlin, in 2006, and their second daughter, Danika Berlin, in 2009.
“I married an amazing guy,” Faulkner told PEOPLE in 2019. “I couldn’t do it without [him].”
So, who is Harris Faulkner’s husband? Here’s everything to know about Tony Berlin and his relationship with the Fox News host.
He was a TV journalist

Like his wife, Berlin also spent most of his career in the newsroom. According to the website of his public relations company, Berlin Media Relations, he worked for 15 years as a TV reporter, anchor and producer for networks like CBS, CNN, NBC and ABC. Faulkner told IN Kansas City that her husband was a “really talented live-shot artist.”
Per his LinkedIn profile, Berlin transitioned to media relations in 2006 and launched his own firm in 2011.
They worked at competing news stations

Before Faulkner and Berlin were husband and wife, they were reporters for competing news stations. Berlin first saw Faulkner in a TV promotion for her nightly news segment and asked one of his friends at her station to introduce them. She agreed to meet him the following week at this same friend’s birthday party — and he showed up with a date.
“He shook my hand and introduced me to his date,” the Emmy Award-winning newscaster told IN Kansas City. “I thought, ‘OK, that takes some gall right there.’ … I thought, OK, I’m looking forward to meeting this guy … But, guy came with a date! What do I do with that?”
When Berlin reached out again a few weeks later, Faulkner said she put him in the “friend lane.” They kept in contact for six months until she decided to give him another chance.
Berlin proposed on Lake Superior
After just over a year of dating, Berlin proposed on the edge of Lake Superior in Duluth, Minn. Faulkner told TwinCities.com that it was “the warmest day of the year.”
“We were skipping rocks into Lake Superior and he threw something at me,” she told the outlet in 2020. “He said, ‘Don’t toss that in!’ and got down on one knee. It was a velvet box with a ring inside.”
Faulkner and Berlin married on April 12, 2003, in Arizona. Faulkner posted a photo of their wedding day on Instagram in 2023 to celebrate their 20th anniversary, writing: “20 years ago. An amazing day with our family and friends.”
Berlin and Faulkner share two daughters

Faulkner and Berlin have two kids. Bella was born on Dec. 9, 2006, and Danika arrived a few years later on May 1, 2009. The Outnumbered Overtime host told PEOPLE that she considers raising her “biracial babies” a blessing.
“It’s beautiful for any parent to get the opportunity to have those loved ones in our lives,” she said. “I’m with someone who is religiously Jewish and racially different from me. We look like a Benetton ad from the 1990s — very colorful.”
He got her a custom Kansas City jersey for their 20th anniversary
Faulkner is a self-described “diehard fan” of the Kansas City Chiefs. So much so that Berlin got her a custom jersey with the number 20 on it for their 20th wedding anniversary.
“I take it out of the box, and I didn’t get it,” she told IN Kansas City. “I was like, ‘[Patrick] Mahomes is 15!’ … And he goes, ‘Turn it over,’ and it had my name on the back, and he goes, ‘You’re on my team.’ So romantic!”
Berlin interviewed Faulkner’s dad before he di3d

In May 2024, Fox Nation released a limited series about Faulkner traversing the globe in an effort to understand what her late father experienced as an Army combat pilot during the Vietnam War. The newscaster told PEOPLE that in Footsteps of My Father, viewers heard her father’s stories first-hand because Berlin interviewed him a few years before he di3d in 2020.
“You’ll actually hear my dad’s voice telling stories of his survival and near-misses in the war,” Faulkner said. “For my national bestselling book, 9 Rules of Engagement: A Military Brat’s Guide to Life and Success, my husband Tony Berlin interviewed my dad and saved those precious few recordings on his cell phone.”
They have an interfaith marriage

According to a 2022 interview with The Washington Times, the couple have an interfaith marriage. Berlin is Jewish and Faulkner attends a community Baptist church. The newscaster told PEOPLE in 2020 that while they’re raising their daughters predominantly Christian, they also do Passover and read from the Haggadah, a Jewish text.
“We share every meal,” she said in her interview with The Washington Times. “We share a prayer. There are things that are commonalities between us with our faith that extend far beyond any sort of divisions.”
