Fox News hosts Ainsley Earhardt and Sean Hannity were married Saturday at the historic Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, Florida, returning to the sanctuary where Hannity proposed during Christmas of 2024.
The ceremony, steeped in Christian tradition and family-centered values, underscored the couples shared belief that faith should anchor both private life and public witness. According to The New York Post, the pair exchanged vows before their children, relatives and closest friends, bringing their engagement story full circle in the same church where they first pledged to build a life together.
The choice of venue was more than sentimental; it was a deliberate affirmation of continuity and commitment in an era when marriage is often treated as disposable. Earhardt and Hannity, two of the most recognizable conservative voices in American media, signaled that their union is rooted in something older and sturdier than the latest cultural trend.
Scripture played a central role in the liturgy, with readings from Romans 12 and the Song of Solomon highlighting both covenantal duty and enduring romantic love. Romans 12 calls believers to a higher standard of mutual respect, urging them to Love one another with brotherly affection and to Outdo one another in showing honor (Romans 12:10), while the Song of Solomon affirms the permanence of true love, declaring, Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it (Song of Solomon 8:7).
These passages framed the marriage not as a casual partnership but as a sacred vow, grounded in biblical teaching and personal responsibility. The couples selection of such texts reflected the virtues they intend to carry into their life togetherdevotion, fidelity, and a love resilient enough to withstand the pressures of public life.
Officiated by their ministers, the ceremony featured personal vows in which Earhardt and Hannity spoke candidly about their affection for one another, their shared faith, and the future they hope to build. The bride wore an Oscar de la Renta gown, a classic choice that matched the traditional tone of the day rather than the fleeting fashions of celebrity culture.
Following the church service, guests gathered at the Everglades Club in Palm Beach for a private reception under a retractable roof, dining and celebrating beneath the open sky. The guest list drew together loved ones from every stage of the couples lives, from Hannitys early days on Long Island to Earhardts roots in South Carolina, as well as colleagues who have walked alongside them throughout their careers.
The event also served as a rare reunion of prominent conservative media figures and executives. Among those in attendance were FOX News Media CEO Suzanne Scott, Fox News president and executive editor Jay Wallace, and a slate of network mainstays including Steve Doocy, Lawrence Jones, Brian Kilmeade, Laura Ingraham, Mark Levin, Dana Perino, Bret Baier, Harris Faulkner, Emily Compagno, Bill Hemmer, Martha MacCallum, Kayleigh McEnany, Carley Shimkus and Trey Gowdy, among others.
The celebration extended beyond the Fox News family to include political allies and rising conservative voices. Fox News host Lara Trump and Eric Trump were present, joined by newly minted Fox News contributor Karoline Leavitt and White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, underscoring the couples close ties to the broader America First movement.
A number of high-profile guests from business, entertainment and philanthropy also attended, reflecting the couples reach across multiple spheres of influence. Casino magnate Steve Wynn, philanthropist Julia Koch, entrepreneur and podcast host Patrick Bet-David, podcast host Sage Steele, country music legend Lee Greenwood, fitness and podcast personality Jillian Michaels, television personality Nancy Grace, Rascal Flatts frontman Gary LeVox and Five for Fightings John Ondrasik were among those who joined the festivities.
The political presence was equally notable, highlighting the couples longstanding role in conservative public life. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and his wife Casey, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino and his wife Erin, Sen. Tim Scott and his wife Molly, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and his wife, Ambassador Callista Gingrich, all came to celebrate the marriage.
For Earhardt and Hannity, the day was framed as something larger than a celebrity wedding or media spectacle. It was, by their own account, a public testament to the faith, friendship and love that brought them together, made all the more poignant by exchanging vows in the same church where their path toward marriage began.
In joint remarks after the celebration, the couple expressed deep appreciation for the support surrounding them. Our hearts are overflowing with love and gratitude as we begin this new chapter together as husband and wife, they said, emphasizing that their union is as much a spiritual covenant as a personal commitment.
They stressed the significance of returning to their spiritual home to formalize their vows. To exchange our vows in our home church where we got engaged, surrounded by our children, families and dearest friends, was more meaningful than we could have ever imagined. Our faith has always been at the center of our relationship, and we truly believe God brought us together.
Their statement continued with a note of humility and hope, pointing to the future they intend to build. We feel blessed by the outpouring of love and support from the wonderful people in our lives and are excited for the future. Above all, we are grateful to God for bringing us to this moment and for the beautiful life we will continue to build together.
The weekends events began with a private pre-wedding celebration Friday night at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, where President Trump and first lady Melania Trump joined the couples family and friends. While the president did not attend Saturdays ceremony, his presence at the earlier gathering underscored the couples place within a conservative movement that still prizes faith, family and enduring marriage as cornerstones of American life.
