In a moment that left Fox News fans reeling with joy and surprise, Greg Gutfeld, the sharp-tongued host of Gutfeld! and co-host of The Five, announced in April 2025 that he’s set to become a father of two. The 60-year-old comedian and political commentator, alongside his wife Elena Moussa, 42, welcomed their first child, daughter Mira, in December 2024. Now, just four months later, Gutfeld dropped the bombshell on Gutfeld! that they’re expecting their second child, a son named Leo Alexander, due in late 2025. The revelation, delivered with Gutfeld’s signature mix of humor and heart, has sparked a frenzy on X and beyond, with fans eager to know what’s next for the Gutfeld family as they navigate this unexpected double dose of parenthood amidst soaring careers and a $10.5 million New York lifestyle.

The announcement came during a lively Gutfeld! episode on April 15, 2025, fresh off Gutfeld’s return from paternity leave for Mira’s birth. With regular panelists Kat Timpf and Tyrus by his side, Gutfeld leaned into the moment with a grin: “Elena and I thought one kid was wild, but we’re doubling down—baby number two, Leo Alexander, is on the way!” He joked, “Mira’s already demanding a promotion to big sister, and our dog Gus is plotting a coup.” The studio audience roared, and Timpf, herself a new mom to son Theodore, teared up, saying, “Greg, you’re building a dynasty!” Tyrus quipped, “Leo’s gonna have your abs and Elena’s brains—poor kid.” The news trended on X, with posts like, “Greg Gutfeld, dad of two at 60? Legend!” and “Leo Alexander Gutfeld sounds like a future Gutfeld! host!”

Gutfeld’s journey to fatherhood has been a whirlwind. His first child’s arrival was announced on December 10, 2024, by The Five co-host Dana Perino, who read a statement after weeks of speculation about his absence: “It is with great joy that my wife Elena and I have welcomed a baby girl, Mira, into the world. She has Elena’s beautiful eyes and my rock-hard abs.” The news shocked fans, given Gutfeld’s private nature and past quips about disliking kids. He returned to Fox News in January 2025, sharing candid stories about life with Mira at their $10.5 million SoHo loft, purchased in July 2024. “I’m terrible at everything—Elena’s the pro,” he admitted on The Five, joking about his clumsy diaper changes while praising Elena’s hands-on parenting.

The second pregnancy, revealed just months later, caught even Gutfeld’s colleagues off guard. On Gutfeld!, he shared how Elena broke the news: “She said, ‘Greg, we’re not done yet,’ and I thought she meant my monologue!” He described their SoHo loft, now filled with Mira’s toys and Gus’s chewed slippers, as “a circus” preparing for Leo. “Elena’s already sketching a nursery, and I’m just trying not to break the crib,” he laughed. Their upstate South Salem lake house, bought in 2018, is also being baby-proofed, with Gutfeld joking, “Gus thinks the new crib is his throne.” Fans on X loved the anecdotes, with one posting, “Greg’s stories about Elena and Mira are gold—Leo’s gonna make it epic!”

Elena Moussa, a former model and founder of the Moussa Project design company, is the anchor of their growing family. Gutfeld met her in 2004 in Portugal, where he was editor of Maxim UK and she was a photo editor for Maxim Russia. “I knew she was my wife the second I saw her,” he told Bill Maher in 2023. Married five months later, their 21-year marriage has weathered Gutfeld’s demanding career, from Red Eye (2007-2015) to Gutfeld!’s rise as cable’s top late-night show, averaging 2.7 million viewers in Q1 2025. Elena’s resilience shone during the 2022 Russia-Ukraine war, when Gutfeld and Fox News colleagues helped rescue her mother from Ukraine. Now, as a mom and expectant mother, she’s balancing design work with parenting, with Gutfeld calling her “the real MVP” on air.

The couple’s decision to expand their family at this stage is both bold and inspiring. Gutfeld, who once called himself “selfish” in a January 2025 Fox News essay, said fatherhood forced him to “unlearn” his ways. “You can’t regret the past because it led to your kids,” he wrote, reflecting on Mira and now Leo. On The Five, he shared how Mira’s giggles and Leo’s impending arrival have reshaped his priorities: “I used to live for ratings; now I live for nap schedules.” Co-host Jesse Watters, gifted a Misfits onesie for Mira, teased, “Greg, you’re 60 with two kids—you’re gonna need a stunt double!” X users echoed the sentiment, with one writing, “Greg at 60 with a toddler and a newborn? Respect!”

What’s next for the Gutfeld family? Professionally, Gutfeld remains a Fox News titan. Gutfeld!’s move to 10 p.m. in 2023 made it cable’s top primetime comedy, outpacing Kimmel and Colbert, while The Five holds as the network’s most-watched show at 4.6 million viewers. Gutfeld’s new Fox Nation series, What Did I Miss?, premiering May 12, 2025, with Timpf and Jamie Lissow, tests contestants on real vs. fake Trump-era headlines, promising his satirical edge. A 12-city Gutfeld Live 2025 tour, kicking off in March, will keep him on the road, though he’s vowed to “never miss a bedtime story.” Fox renewed his contract in 2024, ensuring his presence for years, with CEO Suzanne Scott praising his “unparalleled analysis.”

Personally, the Gutfelds are embracing their chaotic new normal. Their SoHo loft, with its 3,300 square feet and child’s bedroom, is “bursting with baby gear,” per Gutfeld, while their South Salem lake house offers a retreat. Elena’s nursery plans for Leo include a space-themed mural, a nod to his name, meaning “lion.” Gutfeld’s Instagram posts of Gus, their French bulldog, “guarding” Mira’s toys hint at a home filled with love and mischief. He’s joked about teaching Leo “to throw a punchline, not just a punch,” while Elena focuses on “keeping us all alive.” Their faith, rooted in Gutfeld’s Catholic upbringing and Elena’s Russian Orthodox background, guides them, with Gutfeld noting on Gutfeld!, “We pray for patience—and a good nanny.”

The announcement has drawn widespread support. Timpf, who faced her own 2025 challenges with Theodore’s birth and a cancer diagnosis, sent a tiny Gutfeld! onesie for Leo, joking, “He’ll be roasting you by age 2.” Tyrus, a father of three, gifted a plush wrestling ring, saying, “Leo’s gonna need it with Mira as a sister.” President-elect Donald Trump, a Fox News ally, posted on Truth Social, “Congrats to Greg and Elena—Leo’s a future MAGA star!” Colleagues like Perino and Ingraham praised their courage, with Perino noting on The Five, “Greg’s a dad twice over, and somehow funnier for it.” X fans flooded posts with heart emojis, one writing, “Greg and Elena’s family is goals. Mira and Leo are blessed!”

As the Gutfelds prepare for Leo’s arrival, their story is one of reinvention. Gutfeld’s quip on The Five—“I’m 60, Elena’s 42, and we’re just getting started”—captures their spirit. From their SoHo loft to their upstate haven, they’re building a legacy beyond ratings, rooted in love and laughter. The bombshell of becoming a father of two at 60 has only amplified Gutfeld’s voice, proving that life’s biggest surprises can be its greatest gifts. As fans await more tales of Mira, Leo, and Gus, the Gutfeld family’s next chapter promises to be their most entertaining yet.
