**Kayleigh McEnany of Fox News Announces Pregnancy with Baby No. 3 and Plans for a Gender Reveal**
Kayleigh McEnany, the former White House press secretary and current co-host of Fox News’ “Outnumbered,” has exciting news to share: she is expecting her third child with husband Sean Gilmartin. The announcement, made during Monday’s episode of the show, has sparked joy and excitement among her fans and colleagues alike.
In a heartfelt moment at the end of the broadcast, McEnany shared her thrilling news, stating, “Last but not least … Sean and I are expecting our third child, which we’re so excited about.” The couple’s new addition will join their two children, daughter Blake, 5, and son Nash, 2, when the baby arrives in June. McEnany’s announcement was met with warm congratulations from her fellow panelists, including Emily Compagno, who expressed her excitement for the growing family.
Reflecting on her pregnancy journey, McEnany shared, “It’s very sweet. It’s been a special time. I’ve been pregnant during Christmas and during Thanksgiving.” She also revealed that her daughter Blake is already aware of the new baby, often running up to her mother to kiss her growing belly. This tender moment highlights the family’s close bond and the joy that comes with welcoming a new member.
During the segment, McEnany playfully addressed the speculation surrounding her outfit, a pink blazer paired with blue-and-pink pumps. She assured viewers that her fashion choices were not hints about the baby’s gender, despite the blue pacifier graphic displayed on the screen. The lighthearted banter added a fun element to the announcement, showcasing McEnany’s engaging personality.
In a touching gesture, McEnany shared a sonogram of her unborn child, prompting “oohs” and “ahhs” from the audience. The family has a tradition of framing their children’s sonograms and displaying them on a mantle at home, a testament to their cherished memories and milestones.
One of the most exciting aspects of McEnany’s announcement is her plan for a gender reveal. “We’re going to be doing a gender reveal,” she said, inviting viewers to join her on this journey. “I hope you will join me on social media [and] on the show.” This interactive approach allows her audience to be part of the experience, creating a sense of community and shared joy.
As a devout Christian, McEnany infused her announcement with spiritual significance, quoting scripture from Jeremiah 1:5: “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.” This poignant message resonated with many, as she emphasized the love and purpose that comes with new life. “It’s not just a message about my baby, it’s a message about all of you. That’s how much he loves us,” she added, connecting her personal news to a broader message of hope and faith.
McEnany’s journey to this moment has been remarkable. After dating for two years, she and Gilmartin, a retired professional baseball pitcher, tied the knot in 2017. McEnany’s career has seen her transition from broadcast media to a prominent role in the Trump administration, where she served as press secretary during a tumultuous time marked by the COVID-19 pandemic. Since leaving the White House, she has continued to make her mark in the media landscape, regularly appearing on various Fox News programs, including “The Five,” “Fox & Friends,” and prime-time shows hosted by Jesse Watters, Laura Ingraham, and Sean Hannity.
As McEnany prepares for the arrival of her third child, her fans and colleagues are eager to support her during this exciting time. The anticipation of the gender reveal adds an extra layer of excitement, and many are looking forward to following her journey on social media and through her appearances on Fox News.
In a world often filled with uncertainty, McEnany’s announcement serves as a reminder of the joy that comes with new beginnings and the love that binds families together. As she embarks on this new chapter, her growing family is sure to bring even more warmth and happiness into her life. Congratulations to Kayleigh McEnany and Sean Gilmartin on their expanding family!

Kayleigh McEnany, the former White House press secretary who now appears on Fox News’ “Outnumbered,” is pregnant and expecting a third baby with husband Sean Gilmartin, she announced Monday.
“Last but not least … Sean and I are expecting our third child, which we’re so excited about,” she said at the end of the show, noting that the new baby would be joining daughter Blake, 5, and son Nash, 2, come summer.
“It’s very sweet. It’s been a special time. I’ve been pregnant during Christmas and during Thanksgiving,” she said a minute later, “and my daughter Blake now knows, so she runs up and holds my stomach and is like, ‘Let me kiss the baby.’ “
Fellow panelist Emily Compagno leaned toward McEnany from across the couch and gushed, “We love you so much, congratulations to all now five of you. We’re so excited and thrilled.”
The 36-year-old mom-to-be swore that her pink blazer was not a clue about the baby’s gender, pointing out her blue-and-pink pumps and the blue pacifier emblazoned on a pink video banner that offered more congratulations. She showed off a sonogram of the little one too. Cue the oohs and ahhs. (It turns out the family has all the kids’ sonograms framed and displayed on a mantle at home.)
“We’re going to be doing a gender reveal,” McEnany said. “The baby is due in June, so I hope you will join me on this journey. I will be live talking about this on social media [and] on the show. We’ll do a gender reveal here.”
McEnany, a devout Christian, also quoted scripture in her announcement, including this line from Jeremiah 1:5: “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.”
Gesturing toward the audience at home, she added, “It’s not just a message about my baby, it’s a message about all of you. That’s how much he loves us.”
Then McEnany laughed and asked her co-hosts for permission to unbutton what had become her too-tight blazer.
She and Gilmartin, a pitcher who retired from professional baseball in 2022, started dating in 2015 and got married in 2017. After working in broadcast media initially, she served as White House press secretary to President Trump from April 2020 through the end of his first term in January 2021. She’s one of a host of former press secretaries who have landed jobs on cable and broadcast news.
McEnany is also a regular fill-in host for “The Five,” “Fox & Friends” and the prime-time shows hosted weeknights by Jesse Watters, Laura Ingraham and Sean Hannity.
