Those wondering why Greg Gutfeld hasn’t been seen on Fox News for the last few weeks finally have their answer: Gutfeld’s been taking some off to bond with his newborn baby daughter.
Gutfeld! viewers had been left wondering where the host was, with some wondering if he’d quietly exited Fox News Channel. On yesterday’s The Five (sans Gutfeld), Gutfeld’s cohosts cleared things up. Dana Perino announced that Gutfeld and his wife, Elena Moussa, have welcomed a baby girl. The child, whom they revealed is named Mira, is the couple’s first.
Later on Gutfeld!, the show’s late-night panelists also shared the news, and weighed in with baby advice for the 60-year-old first-time dad.
“America has been wondering where Greg has been,” guest host (and regular panelist) Kat Timpf said. “Well, the mystery’s been solved.”
Both shows shared a statement from Gutfeld, who joked that “Mira is healthy with a real set of lungs. She has Elena’s beautiful eyes and my rock-hard abs. We have been hard at work teaching her three languages and putting her through a rigorous workout routine.”
The host later posted a message to his fans directly on Twitter/X, writing “see, that’s how you keep a secret. thanks to all the nice words! see ya in a few!”
Apparently Gutfeld means weeks, not days when he says “a few.” The Wall Street Journal‘s Joe Flint reports that the Fox host will remain on paternity leave until the new year.
Gutfeld has a busy 2025 ahead. In addition to being a new dad and his regular hosting duties on Gutfeld! and The Five, he’s lined up a dozen tour dates across the country.
Congratulations Gutfield and mommy. You will be a fun dad
congrats to the Gutfeild s. God bless each one of you
I have q dsonn and 2 daughters friends of mine w 2 daughters said w 1 son you only have to worry about 1 thing but w daughters you have to worry about a lot of little things congratulations hope all is well & healthy
hopefully it isn’t too little for the sake of mom 😉
Our congratulations to you and your wife!! May you all be richly blessed.
Gutfeld! is not the same without Greg. Parenting is 24/7, 365. Best of luck to all 3 of you.
Not the same without Greg. I know everyone is trying their best but the delivery just isn’t there. Not as bad on the FIVE, but definitely a large gaping hole in the Gutfeld show.
Ditto
I agree. I get the importance of bonding, but the show just isn’t Gutfeld! without Greg. I’ll wait until he returns.
Fox is just not the same without Greg‼️‼️‼️‼️
I so agree

Congratulations Greg and Elena ! After going to sleep last night, I awakened suddenly and had this thought, ” It’s probably a new puppy !”. That would be just like Greg. Getting a companion for little Gus. 🥰 Time will tell !!! 🍼🧷🧴🧼🩷

Congratulations Greg to you and your beautiful wife on the birth of your wonderful little baby girl 💞
So happy for both you and your wife. Enjoy each blessed moment with your daughter. She’s very lucky to have two amazing parents.
Kimmel really sucks & is far from funny! I thought he was cancelled or leaving? Can’t be soon enough! Same for fool Colbert!
CONGRATS GREG♥️
Congratulations Greg. Talk softly to your new family member. And , to her Mother no matter what. The Mother makes you whole and one.
The beautiful child is yours for both of you to treasurer.
I watch your crazy show.. !!!!
Miss you on the show, but totally understand. Yes, great job in keeping a secret. I got the impression that you didn’t like kids. This should be an interesting time ahead. Congratulations to you both. Enjoy this precious time together. Babies grow waaaay too fast. What a wonderful, early Christmas present.
Congratulations to you both on your new blessing. Love you on
The Five and your late night show.
Congratulations! You have been missed but staying home to bond with your daughter is a great joy! I know she has you wrapped around her finger. I wish you and your wife nothing but the best. Can’t wait to see pictures of her.
Congratulations on your baby girl, merry Christmas to all of you.
I’m so happy for Greg and his wife.! Congratulations! Some people seem to just disappear on Fox with no explanation to their viewers.
Greg is a breath of fresh air in TV land!
I hope he is around for a long time?
Congratulations and enjoy these wonderful times with your baby. Dana Perino may just be the next surprise parent at Fox.
He’s losing fans!!!!?
Congratulations Greg and. Mommy! I’m sure you both are enjoying your little bundle of joy. See you in a few weeks!💗🎉
Congratulations on the new addition to the family can’t wait for all the dad jokes
Congratulations to you and your loving family. The journey has just begun and you will be living a live beyond your wildest dreams.
I believe you will be a phenomenonal father who will spoil Mira rotten to the core.
Your daughter will have you wrapped around her little fingers in no time. They always do…
I just turned 60 myself on Tuesday and I wanna complement you on proving life is good. I wish you the best. Your life will never be the same.
My husband and I are so happy for you and your wife! Mira will have a wonderful life with you as her parents! God Bless
Congratulations, Greg! We’ve missed you and yet are thrilled for the reason you’ve been out. “Ain’t gonna lie” we can’t wait until you’re back
congratulations! I’ll get your ass back to work. my wife misses you.
now get your ass back to work. damn voice text
I actually thought you might be on President Elect Trump’s cabinet list since you missed so many shows and no one mentioned where you were!
I’m so happy for you and your wife to be blessed with a baby girl. What a wonderful gift ❤️.
Congratulations! Your life is forever changed!!❤️
Miss and love Him Not the same without you.Guys are doing a good job filling in but I think they can’t wait for you to get back.They struggle at times.Bet you watch and are taking notes so you can make fun of them when you getback.lots of love and luck to both of you with your baby girl.Can’t wait until you come back
His show is the ONLY one I make a point of watching. Come back soon, Greg!!
You certainly can’t make fun of Pete Budigudge any more! Paternity leave!? Give me a break. You’ve lost this viewer. Out of sight, out of mind!
Your loss. Weren’t a fan to begin with. Ok, comparing biological father at age 60 who wants to take off time from a demanding television career to bond with likely his only child and the child’s mother to Pete is laughable .
Wonderful news!! Happy New Year!!
Greggggg…
wowwwww….
am so happy for.both of you…Congrats!
Enjoy your time with baby Mira…
HUGS!
CONGRATS…..GREG AND ALENA…AND WELCOME BABY MIRA…LOVE YOUR NAME..SO HAPPY FOR YOU GREG AND ALENA..AND GREG THERES NOTHING LIKE A DADDYS LITTLE GIRL💜..GOD BLESS YOU ALL..SENDING LOVE AND KISSES TO A VERY HAPPY MOM AND DAD..AND A SPECIAL LITTLE BABY GIRL….✝️GOD BLESS THIS FAMILY….WELCOME BACK GREG JANUARY 2. 2025……
Congrats to you both! A child is the greatest gift of all from God. Love and enjoy everyday because the days will fly by. So happy for you both, but honestly I was getting worried about you Greg not being on the Five or Gutfeld at night which I watch daily. I was afraid something was wrong medically with you or your wife, so relieved to hear all was well and good news of a baby. How exciting and a perfect way to start this good New Year we have in store with our new president!!
CONGRADULATIONS GREG AND TO YOUR WIFE. YOU WILL LOVE BEING A DAD ADD ANOTHER LATER ON SO BABY GIRL DOES NOT GROW UP ALONE.
Hugs to you and your family. Beautiful little girl will have daddy wrapped around her finger in no time! Congratulations! I miss you. Happy Holidays❤️
Congrats to the new Mom and Dad. We miss you on FNC. Can’t wait to see and gear how you have been changed by this little girl.
So happy for the Gutfelds, what a way to add to your sweet family…also a tax exemption 🥰‼
Enjoy every stage your daughter goes thru. May she grow to be a wonderful addition to not only your family but to all she comes in contact with.
Congratulations you’ve been blessed !Enjoy your time off with your new daughter.
Congratulations Greg on the birth of your daughter. The Gutfeld family is excited to have a new great niece. Kathy Gutfeld Lucas
Greg’s B-tea is ok, but still the b-tea. Shouldn’t take fans for granted.
Congrats Greg and family.. I love that you are taking the time to be a new DAD, but your show is just not the same..
Guest hosts try, but,,,,
Congratulations , but please hurry back, the guests make better guests than hosts. Again congrats to you but you are missing some major times.
He needs to do !!!
These young dads taking weeks of time off from work for maternity leave is ridiculous. In my day, you got 3 days off at most. Mom was doing housework after 4 days.
Congrats!!!!
Babies are the best!!! The papa bear, however, needs to go back to the office!!!!!The poor mama has to take care of two babies.
Hurry back!
Merry Christ
Congratulations on the birth of your baby girl- I just hope she looks like her mother. Just kidding- your show is not the same without you.
I tried watching Gutfeld but Kat and Tyrus cannot at all do the job . we miss Greg. the others try but its so flat, so Boring,maybe Tom is a tad better but we can tolerate the Five without Greg for a short whole but not Gutfeld. maybe bring Jim Falalalala to gutfeld ?not tyrus not Kat.congrats to changing diapers,Greg!
It must have been a rough labor for Greg with Gutfeld needing to take so much time off. He should make sure he rubs baby oil to help with his stretch marks.
God forbid that he ruins his perfect abs. He wouldn’t be able to live with himself if that happened.
Congrats Greg and Elena. May your new year be loving, happy and a safe one.
Congratulations to Greg and his wife. I have truly missed you on both shows and look forward to your return . Enjoy your time off with your wife and new daughter!
So happy Greg is coming back soon
Congratulations Greg on your wonderful family addition
I miss Greg Gutfeld!!!!!
Congratulations and your team is doing a great job and we love them. But we miss you. Maybe you could show up as a guest with baby and wife. Please?!?!
Good for Greg and Family! Enjoy your new baby for as long as you can :).
We miss you but so happy for you and your wife! Can’t wait to hear all about Mira!
I miss you and wish you would hurry back. Tom Shilu is the BEST to fill in for you. Tyrus and Kat are not as good. The comedian who wears the Members Only jacket is really good too.
You will have to pop the ole lady in the keester next.
Missing your presence on FOX. All of the best to your family ! looking forward to your return.
Congrats on the baby. Such a blessing!! Cya at the end of January. My husband can’t wait to see your show.
Miss ya sassy! And Congratulations to you all!!
Congratulations there is nothing like it. is she taller than Greg yet?
best wishes to you Greg, the crew at work is doing their best not to show up the boss in having a better show with out him
We miss you Greg. Show not the same without you.😘
Congratulations on your new daughter but need you back on tv.
I understand the need for privacy and wanting a child but there is definitely a responsibility to the business he has disregarded. He is paid a tremendous amount of money for his presence. Its not like he’s a postal worker on maternity leave whose absence can be covered by coworkers. I dont recall Johnny Carson or Letterman taking month long vacations. Maybe the network should reconsider his committment to the network. I guess I view him and his show through a different lens now
Congrats on the new baby! I am so relived to hear you will be back. Have been so worried
Too bad Greg won’t be back sooner than january. Tyrus, Kat, and the others are great but you can’t beat Greg for his delivery and ability to put a spin on things. He makes the show.
can’t wait for him to get back! we miss you Greg!
He needs to come back soon! Kat and Tyrus are terrible subs!!
The show is unwatchable without him.
Congratulations. Even at 60, you both want to learn all you can as parents. Miss you yet show us humming along
Biden gone, trump as prez, Gutfeld has no one to pick on, and his show is getting boring. Same ole fox people, bad comedians, no bodys, and KT, ugh.
Congratulations on Mira. I’m so happy that God has blessed you and your wife with this precious bundle of Joy.
We miss you on the show, however, your cast mates are doing a great job.
Blessings,
Jan Anderson
Katy, Texas
Congratulations! You have a little miracle..so happy for you both…..enjoy your time with your little blessing…but know you are greatly missed!
CONGRATS, I TRULY MISS YOU. YOUR FAMILY COMES FIRST.
Congratulations to the Gutfields on the birth of their baby girl Mira !
Sending caring thoughts and prayers! Merry Christmas too !
The Five is not the same without him.
We miss you :>(
is SNL funny these days? just hating trump is not all that funny. lots of targets on left but why poke fun at fellow travelers.
Congratulations to Gregg and his wife. However, if he doesn’t come back soon….. I will start going to sleep early. I love them all as co-hosts but they are not a Gutfeld .
it has been a few weeks without Greg Gutfeld and while The Five can manage ok because he is not the sole provider, but evening show Gutfeld is another story. The substitute hosts are floundering. The casts of guests is dismal. I am sure the viewership is down significanttly.
I really miss him! none of his subs can fill his shoes. Plz hurry back.
Congratulations! Being a parent is one the greatest adventures in life! I can’t wait till Greg comes back! The show just isn’t the same without him!!!!! The man can make you laugh! I am sure when he comes back the audience will let him know how much we missed him!
Greg we need you back. Your subs are trying their best to carry on but can’ t replace the GG. Blessings tp you and yours.
Lots of posts about the subs not being up to par. Not me. Just go to ABC, NBC, & CBS for the competition. Looking forward to getting GG back, but in essence if you’re looking for a little late night talk show viewing this is still 10 times better than the other alternatives.
Congratulations to Elena and Greg !!!
Mira, God has blessed you with loving parents and millions of fans to adore you (from afar) and pray for you and your family.
Happiness and good health to all in the New Year.
Gutfeld’s show is no fun to watch without Gutfeld. His co -workers try his style wit h no success.
I will wait for his return.
I have stopped watching the Greg Outfield show now because it has fallen flat on its face without Greg. It could have done better to just show reruns instead of trying to imitate the missing host. In this case, the show does not have to go on without the main host! Only one comment I dislike about Greg is his making fun of Jessie Waters. It makes him look small and jealous of an equally good host. I am glad Jessie has the dignity to ignore it. When and if Greg does return, he should stop it. Greg is funny enough without making fun of someone else who is much better looking than he is.
The show is not the same without him. The others are good guest, but not leaders.
So happy for you and your wife! Parenting will change your life forever, it never stops. Miss your monologue every day. Your co hosts try hard, but you make the show “jump“. Conversation is always sparked on your show with your guests. Looking forward to your next show!!
Condolances
Hey Greg and wife Elana,
So happy for you both!! Really miss you Greg but Kat, Tyrus and Tom did a great job filling in for you!!
Jan has 31 days. Is he coming back on 1/5, 1/15, 1/30? Give us a clue.
So thrilled for you both. Greg you will be a wonderful cool dad!
greg needs to come back asap. i can’t even watch the 5 or his show without him being on it.
I so miss him on the show but everyone is trying hard to keep it all together and they are doing a great job. Much happiness and enjoy your Mira but know that you are missed.
It’s just not the same without you
so happy for both of them Miss you Greg need some pictures
So he will be senile when the kid graduates from high school.
Your shows are not the same without you we need you back.
Hurry up back your show is not very good without you
Is Greg taking paternity lessons from Mayor Pete?
Congratulations to you and Elena and I’m know that Mira I must be absolutely beautiful.
We really miss you on Fox so please hurry back.
The late night show sucks without him.
the show is not the same without Greg
This is ridiculous! Come back or quit! He didn’t give birth he needs to be a man and go to work! I may never watch Gutfeld again because he’s acting like a friggin liberal ahole!
Exactly! Why bother to come back. His subs did an excellent job!
The longer he’s gone the less I miss him.
We miss Greg! The visiting hosts have done an amazing job, but it’s time for him to return.Bring the wee one if need be. Kat can get some good practice in!💕🎊
Hope he is back soon. I can’t watch it with a couple of the guest hosts.
If he’s not back on Jan 6, I’ll stop turning to it. Enough is enough, thanks.
Was he gone?
So Happy for Greg and his wife on the birth of their little angel Mira, but we all miss you on Gutfeld, enjoy your time with wife and baby, but can’t wait for you to come back to Gutfeld, Love and prayers for you and your family
its time for greg gutfeld to come back on tv its been at least 6 weeks
I was hoping that Fox News had traded Greg to the Comedy chanell for a player to be named later.
Can’t wait. Your the best Gutfeld
