Trump’s Awkward On-Air Remark About Hannity and Earhardt.
The former president touched on a range of topics, including Russian President Vladimir Putin, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the expanded police presence in Washington, and a few personal notes.
“There’s a guy named Sean Hannity,” Trump began. “He might take a very lovely young lady that he knows very, very well to dinner in Washington, and they don’t have to—she’s sitting right next to you, by the way. I don’t want to get him in trouble, so I better explain exactly,” he joked. “We don’t want any secrets here.”
Trump went on to say he believes the couple’s bond is the “greatest” relationship out there, and he pointed to Earhardt, 48, and Hannity, 63, who shared their engagement news late last year. The commentary wrapped with Trump suggesting that the city is now a safer place for the couple to enjoy each other’s company and have a quiet dinner.
“I’m not making headlines here, but maybe I should be,” Trump said. “Ainsley and Sean are terrific folks. When they go out to dinner, I worry I’ll see a mugger. Now they can stroll through D.C., hand in hand, and feel like stars—because they are.” “Now, I need to know—who’s the biggest paycheck?” Trump wondered, but Jones jumped in and switched the topic.
The popular TV duo got engaged over the Christmas holiday, letting Fox know in a Dec. 26 interview. Hannity popped the question at their church, a cozy nod to the faith that brought them close. “The kids are on board and beaming,” they said. “We are beyond thankful for our families and all their love and support during this magical chapter.”
In a Truth Social post on December 27, Trump gave his seal of approval to Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt’s engagement: “Great news about Sean and Ainsley. They are officially engaged to be married! There are no finer people than these, and there will be no finer couple. Congratulations to both—a deal made in HEAVEN!!!”
Hannity was married to Jill Rhodes from 1993 to 2019 and they share a son and a daughter. Earhardt was married to former Clemson quarterback Will Proctor from 2012 to 2019, and they have a daughter. Before Proctor, Earhardt was married to Kevin McKinney from 2005 to 2009.
The pair told Fox News they have kept things positive. “We still get along well with our previous spouses. Everyone is supportive of each other,” they said. “We actually made them aware this was happening ahead of time.”
