‘Fox & Friends’ Star Gushes About Long Distance Relationship With Sean Hannity After Engagement

Ainsley Earhardt said she loves her New York community, while her Florida-based fiancé said he was “done” with the state last year.

Fox & Friends co-host Ainsley Earhardt gushed about her Christmas engagement to network star Sean Hannity on Monday, adding that she will keep living in New York while her beau—who abandoned the Big Apple for Florida last year—will stay in the Sunshine State.

“I’m staying on the curvy couch,” she said, of the Fox News’ chat show’s hallmark sofa. “I’m going to continue to live in New York. My daughter loves her school, I love my community, and obviously I love my job.”

Hannity’s affection for Earhardt, meanwhile, does not extend to the Empire State. The Hannity host claimed he was “finished” with the blue state last year and relocated his TV and radio broadcasts south.

“Sean is down in Florida, and we don’t miss a weekend without each other, so we see each other,” Earhardt said. “We make it work. It’s easy.”

Earhardt said Hannity surprised her with a morning proposal at a church while she was visiting him in Florida over the holidays.

“I thought we were going to a meeting, and we pulled up to the church instead,” she told her colleagues. “I said, this is not the right turn. And he said, ‘We’re not going to the meeting.‘”

She said, after sitting alone together on the front pew and reflecting on their relationship, Hannity walked her to the altar “and got down on one knee.”

Hannity’s Florida relocation followed President-elect Donald Trump, who changed his residency from New York to Florida in 2019.

By chance, Trump’s wife Melania has also expressed a fondness for New York, which she called “home” in August as her son Barron prepared to enroll at New York University.

“Finally, for the first time that I can think of in my adult life, I actually have representatives in the state that I’m living in that share my values,” Hannity said, on a radio broadcast after making his move.

In addition to his now primary abode in Florida, the conservative host reportedly also owns residences in Alabama, Georgia, New York, North Carolina, Texas and Vermont.

“I respect him so much,” said Earhardt, of her new fiancé. “I look up to him he’s been there for all of us in our careers. We all love and adore him, and then we fell in love a few years ago, and it’s been a wonderful ride. I’m so grateful.”
