Fox News personalities Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt were married Saturday, followed by a star-studded celebration at one of the country’s most exclusive private clubs, Our News Outlet can reveal.
The longtime cable news figures exchanged vows at the historic Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, Florida, nearly two years after becoming engaged.
Earhardt, 50, walked down the aisle in an Oscar de la Renta gown, surrounded by relatives, close friends and prominent figures from the worlds of politics and entertainment.
The wedding festivities continued Saturday night with an elaborate reception at the nearby Everglades Club. The prestigious members-only venue is known for its strict privacy rules, including a ban on guests bringing cell phones inside.
Among those attending were President Donald Trump’s chief of staff Susie Wiles, Eric and Lara Trump, casino executive Steve Wynn, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and country music star Lee Greenwood. Guests raised champagne and cocktails in honor of the newlyweds.
The Fox News delegation included Earhardt’s Fox & Friends co-hosts Steve Doocy, Lawrence Jones and Brian Kilmeade, along with Laura Ingraham, Bret Baier, newly appointed Fox News contributor Karoline Leavitt, network CEO Suzanne Scott and president and executive editor Jay Wallace.
The wedding weekend began Friday evening with a VIP gathering at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate. The President and First Lady Melania Trump attended, along with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“My heart is overflowing with gratitude and joy,” Earhardt said in a statement released through Fox News. “To celebrate this beautiful season of our lives surrounded by the people we love most is truly a dream come true.”

The Fox News stars exchanged vows at the historic Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, Florida, after an engagement lasting nearly two years.
The Everglades Club, a private retreat for Palm Beach’s wealthy and influential residents, hosted the reception because of its grandeur and seclusion
“God has blessed us in more ways than we could ever imagine, and I am so thankful that He brought Sean and me together,” Earhardt added.
Hannity, 64, a close ally of the President and one of conservative media’s leading voices, said: “Ainsley is an incredible person, and I couldn’t be happier or more grateful that God brought us together.”
“Faith, family and friendship are what matter most in life, and having so many people we love and care about together to celebrate this moment means the world to us,” the couple said.
According to a network insider, the two broadcasters were colleagues and close friends at Fox before their relationship developed into a romance.
Hannity tried to keep the budding relationship private, but Our News Outlet reported on the romance in a 2023 exclusive after publishing photographs of the pair cuddling at a Waffle House.
Hannity proposed to Earhardt at his home church over Christmas 2024, later calling it the “perfect place” to ask her to marry him.
When USA Today asked him earlier this month about the wedding venue, Hannity ruled out the White House and joked: “Does anyone really care?”
The couple ultimately chose the Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea, a century-old Gothic-style landmark and the oldest existing congregation in Palm Beach.

The historic venue is tucked away behind Worth Avenue, a ritzy shopping enclave lined with designer boutiques, art galleries and grand mansions.
It dates to the final months of the Great War, when its founder, Paris Singer, heir to the Singer sewing-machine empire, set out to build a convalescent center for wounded American servicemen.
He enlisted architect Addison Mizner, who drew on Spanish and Italian architecture to produce an ornate complex of stucco walls, courtyards and intricate ironwork, all hallmarks of the Mediterranean Revival style that would become synonymous with Palm Beach.
Construction began in 1918, but the Armistice ended the war before the project could fulfil its original purpose and Singer changed course, opening the property as an invitation-only members’ club in February 1919.
The original compound included eight elegant villas, tennis courts and a yacht basin, while a golf course was added in 1920.

Earhardt has been married twice before and split from her second husband Will Proctor, 42, in 2018. They jointly raise a daughter, Hayden, 10

Within two years, membership was capped at 500 well-heeled patrons.
Businessman Jack C. Massey, who built a fortune through companies including Kentucky Fried Chicken and Hospital Corporation of America, was a member, as was Eliza Osgood Vanderbilt Webb, granddaughter of railroad magnate Cornelius Vanderbilt.
By 1999, the initiation fee alone was rumored to be $35,000, according to the Palm Beach Daily News.
The club still doesn’t have a website.Anyone hoping to stage a wedding celebration at the Everglades has to either be a member themselves or have an existing member sponsor them, a worker explained when Our News Outlet rang the club last week.
But that evidently wasn’t a problem for the well-connected Hannity, who moved to South Florida full time in 2024 and owns two townhouses in Palm Beach and a waterfront mansion in nearby Manalapan that he bought for a combined $44 million.
Earhardt stayed put in New York but the couple made their long-distance engagement work by crisscrossing the country on romantic weekend trips.
‘They had only seen each other on weekends given Ainsley lives in the city and Sean was on Long Island,’ a friend previously told Our News Outlet.
‘The only difference now is that they will be traveling by plane instead of a car back and forth to Long Island.’

The two broadcasters were Fox colleagues and best friends until the relationship blossomed, according to a network insider
‘Everyone is supportive of each other,’ the couple said in a joint statement as they announced their engagement in December 2024.
‘We are overjoyed and so thankful to our families for all of their love and support during this wonderful time in our lives.’
Hannity joined Fox when it launched in 1996 and his eponymous nightly show has made him one of the most influential figures in conservative media and the longest-running primetime cable news host in history.
Earhardt is one of the network’s most recognizable presenters on Fox & Friends, its top-rated morning program.
