It was a typical Friday morning on Fox & Friends, until Sean Hannity popped in live from Palm Beach.
What started as a political segment quickly turned into something far sweeter, as Hannity and his fiancée, co-host Ainsley Earhardt, shared a playful exchange that reminded viewers why they’re one of cable’s most captivating couples.
Long-Distance, Strong Connection
At 63, Hannity is settling into his new life in Florida, having officially relocated from New York earlier this year. But distance hasn’t dimmed his dynamic with Earhardt, 48, who continues to anchor Fox & Friends each morning from Manhattan.

“It’s not conventional,” Earhardt told the Daily Mail. “We live on opposite ends of the East Coast, but when you love someone, you make it work.”
Every Friday after her 9-year-old daughter Hayden finishes school, Earhardt and her little one fly to Palm Beach, where they spend the weekend with Hannity at one of his stunning waterfront properties. The family wraps up the weekend with brunch after church before flying back to New York on Sunday afternoon.
“I love my time with Sean in Palm Beach. I love my New York life, too,” she added.
“I’m Not the Celebrity” — Hannity Says Ainsley’s Star Is Rising
While appearing live from his Florida home, Hannity couldn’t help but gush about Earhardt’s growing fanbase.

Earhardt pushed back with a smile: “I’m not the celebrity. This guy right here, everywhere we go, people stop him.”
Their co-host, Lawrence Jones, couldn’t resist teasing the couple: “Just get a room!” he joked, as laughter filled the studio.
Balancing Love, Faith, and Fox Nation
Despite their banter, both Hannity and Earhardt are busier than ever. Hannity is hosting a new Fox Nation special, Wanted: Dead or Alive, diving into the stories of notorious American criminals like John Dillinger, Bonnie and Clyde, and Ma Barker. He’s also working on other projects with Fox Nation, including Punchlines and Patriots, which the couple discussed during their on-air appearance.
Behind the scenes, they’re building a life rooted in routine and faith. Weekends in Palm Beach include church, beach walks, and downtime with Hayden and the family dog, Rosie Tiny Buttercup.
Their engagement, which took place inside their Palm Beach church just days before Christmas, marked a joyful turning point that’s brought new light to both of their lives.
Home Is Where the Weekend Is
When in Florida, Earhardt and Hayden stay in one of Hannity’s luxury homes, including two adjacent Palm Beach townhouses (one bought for $5.3M, the other for $14.9M), and a $23.5M Manalapan estate currently listed for rent at $130,000 a month.
Back in Manhattan, Earhardt and her daughter live in a lavish Upper East Side apartment described as resembling a set from The Gilded Age — complete with gold accents, cozy reading nooks, and just the right amount of sparkle.
It’s a dual-coast life that might not work for everyone. But for Hannity and Earhardt, it’s proof that love, laughter, and loyalty still win, no matter the distance.
“We’re in this together,” Earhardt said. “And we’ve found what works for us.”
