In a heartwarming turn of events that has softened the sharp edges of the 24-hour news cycle, Fox News superstar Jesse Watters has announced the arrival of a brand-new bundle of joy. The host of Jesse Watters Primetime and co-host of The Five—who has spent decades chasing down stories and grilling politicians—is now taking on a much gentler assignment: diaper duty for a beautiful new baby girl. Watters and his wife, Emma DiGiovine, have officially welcomed the newest member of their “Watters World,” sparking a wave of congratulations from colleagues, fans, and viewers across the nation.

A New Chapter for the Watters Dynasty
The announcement comes as a joyous addition to an already bustling household. Jesse Watters is no stranger to the chaotic bliss of fatherhood; this new baby girl joins a lively sibling roster that includes his son, Jesse Bailey Watters Jr., born in 2021, and his daughter, Georgina “Gigi” Post Watters, who arrived in April 2023. The family dynamic is further enriched by Jesse’s twin daughters, Sophie and Ellie, from his previous marriage, who have been described by the host as “spectacular” big sisters.
With this latest arrival, the “King of Cable News” is officially outnumbered at home, surrounded by a growing squad of strong women—a fact that likely brings a different kind of energy to his life than the heated debates of the Fox News roundtables.
The Power Couple: Jesse and Emma
The relationship between Jesse and Emma has long been a subject of interest for fans of the network. The couple tied the knot in 2019 after meeting at Fox News, where Emma worked as an associate producer on his show. Since leaving the network to focus on her family and her own lifestyle brand, Emma has become a favorite among followers for her candid and stylish glimpses into the Watters’ private life.
From sharing snaps of family vacations to offering health and wellness tips, Emma often provides the “soft side” to Jesse’s hard-hitting TV persona. Her social media presence has documented the growth of their family with grace, often celebrating milestones like Jesse Jr.’s first steps or Gigi’s first birthday with heartfelt tributes. This latest pregnancy was kept relatively low-key compared to the media frenzy that surrounds political news, making the arrival of the new baby a delightful surprise for many casual viewers.
Balancing the Teleprompter and the Crib
For Jesse Watters, the timing of this new arrival coincides with the peak of his professional career. Since taking over the 8 p.m. slot with Jesse Watters Primetime in 2022, his ratings have soared, cementing his status as a dominant force in American media. His unique blend of man-on-the-street humor, biting political commentary, and cultural analysis has resonated with millions.
However, Watters has never been shy about letting his “dad” persona bleed into his on-air work. Viewers of The Five are accustomed to his anecdotes about family life, including the hilarious struggles of parenting a toddler and the sweet moments of watching his children grow. When his son Jesse Jr. was born, Watters famously shared photos from the hospital, beaming with pride. When Georgina arrived, he took paternity leave, later joking with his co-hosts about the reality of changing diapers and the “quality time” spent with the family.
It is this relatability that endears him to his audience. In an era where media figures often feel distant or overly polished, Watters’ willingness to share his personal milestones creates a bond with viewers who see him not just as a pundit, but as a father trying to raise a family in a complex world.

A House Full of Love (and Chaos)
The logistics of the Watters household are sure to be a topic of conversation on The Five in the coming weeks. With a newborn, a toddler (Gigi), a preschooler (Jesse Jr.), and teenage twins (Sophie and Ellie), the house is undoubtedly filled with noise, laughter, and very little sleep.
In previous interviews, Jesse has spoken about the adjustment period that comes with each new child. After Georgina was born, he noted that Jesse Jr. was adjusting well to being a big brother, describing him as “fine” and a “great older brother”. Now, with another baby girl in the mix, the dynamic shifts once again. Fans can expect plenty of updates—and perhaps a few tired eyes—when Watters returns to the desk.
The “Fox News Family” Reacts
The arrival of a “Fox News baby” is always a celebrated event within the network’s ecosystem. Colleagues like Dana Perino, Greg Gutfeld, and Jeanine Pirro often celebrate these milestones on air, treating the hosts’ families as an extension of the show’s cast. It reinforces the “family” atmosphere that the network cultivates, where personal joys are shared as openly as political victories.
Social media has already begun to light up with well-wishes. Viewers who have followed Jesse since his early days as a correspondent on The O’Reilly Factor feel a sense of vicarious pride seeing him settle into this robust family life. The comments sections of his posts are often filled with advice from fellow parents and grandparents, further highlighting the strong community connection he holds with his audience.
Looking Ahead

As Jesse Watters takes a moment to breathe in that “new baby smell” and enjoy the quiet moments before returning to the spotlight, the world of news continues to spin. But for now, the headlines in the Watters household are all about bottles, blankets, and the miracle of life.
This new baby girl enters a world where her father is one of the most vocal figures in American culture, but inside their home, he is simply “Dad.” It is a role that, by all accounts, he cherishes above all others. As the family adjusts to being a party of seven (including the twins), fans will be eagerly awaiting the first photos and the inevitable funny stories that will make their way to the energetic roundtable of The Five.
Congratulations to Jesse, Emma, and the entire Watters clan on this beautiful new blessing!
