Bella, 18, and Danika, 15, are biracial as Faulkner, is Black and Berlin is white.
Faulkner admitted her fears about racial and political tensions as Bella plans to attend college in the fall.
“As a person of color, and as a person who speaks boldly about faith, it’s very adjacent when people are hated for the way that they believe, and their position in society,” Faulkner told the Daily Mail in a recent interview.
Faulkner and Berlin, a media consultant, raised their daughters in a household with different religions as Faulkner is Baptist Christian and Berlin is Jewish. The two have been married since 2003.
“Am I more worried about them standing out for their hair texture and their skin color or their faith?” she asked.
“I’m worried about all of it. And not just for my kids”
Faulkner continued, “I really think it’s important for Jewish children on campuses to know that they have partners, that the hate on the campus is a microcosm compared with the love that’s out there.”
The mom also shared her view that transgender women shouldn’t compete in sports, echoing President Donald Trump’s recent executive order.
Faulkner said her youngest daughter just completed eight years of competing at an elite level in gymnastics.
“The sport would be very different if there were biological men who could compete against my daughter,” she said.

“I want her to be safe.”
“I want her to feel like her best accomplishments matter, and that the competition itself is fair,” she added.
Faulkner also added that her older daughter has already decided her political opinions.
“Bella knows who she is and she’s remarkably confident about for whom she’ll vote,” the anchor said.
Am I more worried about them standing out for their hair texture and their skin color or their faith? I’m worried about all of it. And not just for my kids.”

“She wants to study early childhood education, and with a specialty in children who are challenged and need extra love and support.”
The Fox News star also spoke about the ratings battle between her show, The Faulkner Focus, and ABC talk show The View.
“On The View, there is this sort of, shout it, cuss it, do whatever you gotta do to get a little more attention around the hot topics,” she slammed.
She also called out The View Sunny Hostin for “dicey remarks” and for “coming for her” in a 2018 appearance.
Last year, Faulkner celebrated 10 years of hosting the Fox News afternoon program Outnumbered after joining the network in 2005.
Plus, her show ended January with an average total of 2,552,000 viewers, beating out The View’s 2,508,00 in a shocking upset.
