Greg Gutfeld Opens Up About the Harsh Realities of Becoming a First-Time Dad at 60—Confesses “I’m Terrible at Everything!”

Fox News late-night host Greg Gutfeld stunned fans recently by sharing shockingly candid details about his life since becoming a dad at the age of 60. Known for his sharp humor and bold commentary, Gutfeld has now revealed a vulnerable side rarely seen by viewers.

In a deeply personal account, Gutfeld described himself as previously “selfish,” admitting he spent decades focused solely on himself, his career, and personal success. But everything changed dramatically in December 2024 when he and his wife, Elena Moussa, 42, welcomed their first child, daughter Mira.

“I had perfected living for myself,” Gutfeld wrote. “But now, suddenly, I’m forced to care about someone else, and honestly, I’m terrible at it.” Fans were shocked by this brutally honest confession from the typically confident star.

Gutfeld jokingly revealed that his wife Elena, whom he praised for her strength and resilience, often tells him he’s “clumsy” and “bad at everything,” especially when it comes to childcare duties. Despite being an influential TV personality, he admitted he’s still learning basic parenting skills most dads master in their 20s or 30s.

His life transformation didn’t stop at fatherhood. In July 2024, Gutfeld and his family moved into a lavish $10.5 million SoHo apartment in New York City. The luxurious loft provided much-needed space for their new life as parents.

Gutfeld humorously acknowledged that fatherhood at his age brought a steep learning curve, calling it “the hardest and most rewarding challenge” he’s faced. He praised his wife Elena, describing childbirth as a “heroic act” and emphasizing that mothers deserve endless respect and admiration.

Adding some humor to the situation, Gutfeld has shared moments involving their beloved French bulldog, Gus, often joking that even the dog seems more prepared for fatherhood than he is.

Fans have shown strong support online, appreciating Gutfeld’s transparency and ability to laugh at himself. While some were surprised by his admissions, others praised him for openly sharing the challenges of late fatherhood.

Meanwhile, Gutfeld continues to entertain millions on his popular Fox News shows, “Gutfeld!” and “The Five,” balancing his high-profile career with the unpredictable world of first-time parenting.

As Gutfeld navigates this new chapter, his refreshing honesty continues to captivate fans and spark conversations about parenting later in life—showing even the most confident TV stars can find themselves humbled by fatherhood.
