Fox News host Greg Gutfeld, 60, shocked fans this week with an unexpected yet heartwarming announcement—he and his wife, Elena Moussa, 42, have welcomed a baby daughter together. The news comes after weeks of speculation about Gutfeld’s absence from The Five, leaving many viewers wondering about his whereabouts.

The beloved TV personality, who also helms the late-night show Gutfeld!, finally broke his silence with a statement shared live on The Five:

“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,” he joked, adding that his daughter has his wife’s “beautiful eyes” and his “rock-hard abs.”

A Surprise That Stunned Fans

Before reading Gutfeld’s statement on air, co-host Dana Perino teased the audience, hinting at a major revelation:

“This is going to be a great surprise for a lot of you,” she said. “You might have noticed that our friend Greg Gutfeld hasn’t been here for a couple of weeks, and it’s for a good reason.”

While the couple managed to keep Elena’s pregnancy completely private, it appears they had been preparing for their growing family for some time. In July, Gutfeld made a bold real estate move, purchasing a stunning $10.5 million loft in Manhattan’s upscale SoHo neighborhood—perhaps a sign that he was already planning for life with a newborn.

Inside Gutfeld’s Lavish New Home

According to property records, Gutfeld secured the sprawling 3,560-square-foot condo in a recently renovated, six-story 1900s-era building. Designed by the renowned architectural firm DXA Studio, the home offers an elegant blend of historic charm and modern luxury.

Key features of the $10.5M loft include:

Oversized windows and soaring ceilings, flooding the space with natural light.
A high-end chef’s kitchen, featuring sleek finishes and top-of-the-line appliances.
Multiple deluxe bathrooms, including one with a stand-alone soaking tub.
A cozy child’s bedroom—evidence that Gutfeld and Moussa had been preparing for their baby long before the big reveal.

The building itself is pet-friendly and includes a ground-floor retail space.

A Life of Luxury—City and Countryside
While their Manhattan condo is their primary residence, Gutfeld and Moussa also own a picturesque lake house in South Salem, New York, which they purchased in 2018. The contemporary wood-and-glass retreat serves as their getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Occasionally, Gutfeld shares glimpses of their stunning lakeside property on social media, but his Instagram is mostly dedicated to their beloved French bulldog, Gus.

In addition to their new home, Gutfeld previously owned a smaller loft nearby, which he put on the rental market last fall for a whopping $24,000 per month. The meticulously renovated 2,200-square-foot space boasts a private elevator, 13-foot ceilings, and a gas fireplace—though it’s currently off the market.

A Love Story That Started in Portugal
Gutfeld and Moussa’s whirlwind romance began in Portugal, where they met while working for Maxim—he as an editor for Maxim UK, and she as a photo editor for Maxim Russia.

Reflecting on their first meeting during an interview with Bill Maher on the Club Random podcast, Gutfeld recalled the moment he knew she was the one:

“I met her and I go, ‘Oh, that’s my wife.’ I just knew it.”

Determined to win her over, he spent three days in Portugal trying to talk to her. His persistence paid off—they were married just five months later. Now, 20 years later, the couple has embarked on a brand-new chapter together as parents.

What’s Next for Gutfeld?
As Gutfeld settles into life as a new dad, fans are eagerly anticipating his return to The Five and Gutfeld!. With his signature wit and humor, there’s no doubt he’ll have plenty of stories to share about fatherhood.

For now, though, the outspoken host seems to be relishing his new role as a proud dad—nestled in the comfort of his luxurious SoHo loft with his wife, daughter, and beloved pup.
