From rivals in the newsroom to soulmates at home, Harris Faulkner’s marriage to Tony Berlin is the stuff of rom-com dreams. Behind the commanding presence of the Fox News anchor is a love story that has stood the test of time, built on mutual respect, shared values, and a dash of serendipity.

A Love Story That Began with Rivalry

Harris Faulkner, known for her authoritative reporting on Outnumbered and The Faulkner Focus, met her husband, Tony Berlin, in a more unexpected way. At the time, they were working for competing news stations — Faulkner at ABC and Berlin at CBS in Minneapolis. Faulkner recalls how the first encounter between them was a bit awkward, especially when Tony showed up at a party with another woman, despite having asked to meet her. “He showed up to a party with a date — even though he’d asked to meet me,” Faulkner recalled with a laugh. “That takes some gall!”

But Berlin’s confidence and charm ultimately won her over. After six months of being in the “friend zone,” Faulkner gave him a second chance. This time, their connection deepened, and just over a year later, Berlin proposed on the serene banks of Lake Superior. “He said, ‘Don’t throw that!’ I opened it — and there was the ring,” Faulkner shared. They married on April 12, 2003, in Arizona, and their bond has only grown stronger ever since.

From Newsroom to Real Life

Tony Berlin isn’t just Harris Faulkner’s husband — he’s a powerhouse in his own right. After spending 15 years in TV journalism with CBS, CNN, NBC, and ABC, he founded his own media firm in 2011, Berlin Media Relations, helping brands craft stories and generate headlines.

Faulkner, ever supportive, has referred to Berlin as a “really talented live-shot artist,” acknowledging his vast experience in the media world. Together, they’ve navigated their careers with a strong partnership built on a deep understanding of the demands of their professions.

A Colorful, Interfaith Family Life

Together, Harris and Tony are raising two daughters, Bella (born in 2006) and Danika (born in 2009), in what Faulkner lovingly calls a “Benetton ad family.” The couple blends their different religious and cultural backgrounds seamlessly into their family life. Faulkner, a devout Christian, and Berlin, who is Jewish, embrace both their traditions—from attending Sunday church services to celebrating Passover together.

“We’re religiously and racially different,” Faulkner explained in an interview. “It’s beautiful.” Despite their differences, they focus on what unites them. “We share every meal. We share a prayer,” Faulkner continued. “There’s more that unites us than divides us.”

A Husband Who Truly Shows Up

Tony Berlin has been more than just a supportive husband—he’s been an integral part of preserving Faulkner’s family legacy. Before her father passed in 2020, Berlin took the time to record interviews with him, which later appeared in Faulkner’s Fox Nation series Footsteps of My Father. “You’ll actually hear my dad’s voice telling his war stories — because Tony saved them,” Faulkner shared with emotion.

To mark their 20th anniversary, Berlin gifted Faulkner a custom Kansas City Chiefs jersey with her name and the number 20 on the back. “I was confused at first — Mahomes is 15!” Faulkner laughed. “Then he told me, ‘You’re on my team.’” This sweet and meaningful gesture was the perfect touchdown in their enduring love story.

The Heart of Their Love

For Harris and Tony, their love story is a perfect example of partnership, understanding, and unwavering support. Their shared journey has created a foundation built on trust, respect, and love, with family and faith at the core of it all.

Through their ups and downs, challenges in their careers, and the inevitable obstacles that come with raising children, they continue to stand side by side. Their story reminds us that true love is about building each other up, finding strength in one another, and creating a life that reflects shared values.

As Harris and Tony continue to navigate their careers and family life, one thing is clear: they are a team, and their bond is stronger than ever. In a world that can often feel divided, their partnership is a shining example of how love can transcend all barriers—whether they are cultural, religious, or professional.

Their love story, both public and private, is a testament to the power of mutual support and understanding, and as they continue their journey together, they show us all what it truly means to build a lasting, meaningful relationship.
