Hillary Vaughn and Peter Doocy Celebrate First Child, Daughter Bridget, Born in February 2023

Fox News reporter Hillary Vaughn and White House Correspondent Peter Doocy are overjoyed as they embrace their new roles as parents to a baby girl. Their daughter, Bridget Blake Doocy, was born in February 2023, marking a major milestone in their lives.

The proud parents welcomed Bridget into the world in Northern Virginia, where she weighed in at 8 pounds, 1 ounce, and measured 21 inches long. This marks the first child for both Vaughn, 34, and Doocy, 37, and the couple has been thrilled to embark on their new adventure as a family of three.

Reflecting on the transition to motherhood, Hillary Vaughn humorously noted how her years of questioning politicians on Capitol Hill unintentionally prepared her for the challenge of parenting. “I didn’t realize it before, but my job has been preparing me for this all along,” she joked. “I used to chase lawmakers for answers—now I’m trying to get Baby Bridget to go on the record. ‘Are you hungry? Gassy? Both?’ It’s not easy getting a straight answer!”

Vaughn, who describes her new role as a mom, shared with a smile, “I’ve only been a mom for a week, but it’s already the best assignment I’ve ever had. She’s completely stolen the show!”

A Thrilled Grandfather

Joining in the joy of becoming a grandparent is Peter Doocy’s father, Steve Doocy. The longtime Fox & Friends host has expressed his excitement over becoming a grandpa, sharing the news with friends who had been asking about his son and daughter-in-law.

With his trademark enthusiasm, Steve Doocy proudly announced, “Well, I’ve got an announcement—I’m officially a grandpa now.”

Family Life and Joyful Moments

Although Hillary and Peter typically keep their personal lives private, they recently shared a heartwarming Christmas photo that radiated happiness. In the festive snap, Peter stands beside a Christmas tree, while Hillary enjoys the moment nearby. Little Bridget, now several months old, can be seen riding a toy car and playing with a giant pen, adding to the joy of the season.

It’s clear that this growing family is filled with love, and the proud parents are embracing their new roles with joy, humor, and lots of love for their daughter. As the Doocy family grows, there’s no doubt that Bridget will continue to be the center of attention and bring even more happiness into their lives.
