Greg Gutfeld’s World Has Been Forever Changed — The Shocking Introduction of Miran, His Long-Hidden Little Angel, Has Uncovered Family Secrets, Sparked Emotional Reactions
In the whirlwind of late-night television, where sharp wit and biting satire reign supreme, Greg Gutfeld has long been a polarizing yet magnetic figure. As the host of Gutfeld! on Fox News, the 60-year-old comedian and political commentator has built a loyal following with his irreverent humor and unapologetic takes on current events. But in late 2024, a revelation far more personal than any monologue stole the headlines and sent shockwaves through his fanbase: the arrival of his daughter, Miran, whom he calls his “little angel.” After months of cryptic absences from his shows Gutfeld! and The Five, Gutfeld and his wife, Elena Moussa, finally unveiled their family secret—a baby girl who has turned their world upside down. The announcement, coupled with rare glimpses of their private life, has left fans stunned, delighted, and eagerly anticipating more details about this new chapter in the Gutfeld household.
The revelation came in December 2024, when Gutfeld’s co-hosts on The Five, Dana Perino and Jesse Watters, shared the joyous news during a broadcast. “This is going to be a great surprise for a lot of you,” Perino said, reading a statement from Gutfeld: “It is with great joy that my wife Elena and I have welcomed a baby girl into the world. Miran is healthy with a real set of lungs. She has Elena’s beautiful eyes and my rock-hard abs.” The announcement, delivered with Gutfeld’s signature humor, sparked an outpouring of congratulations across social media, with hashtags like #BabyMiran and #GutfeldFamily trending on X. Fans, accustomed to Gutfeld’s sarcastic quips about politics, were caught off guard by the tender reveal, flooding platforms with messages of support and curiosity about the “little angel” who had remained hidden until now.
Greg Gutfeld, born September 12, 1964, in San Mateo, California, has always been a master of keeping his personal life under wraps. Raised in a Catholic family, he attended Junípero Serra High School and later graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in English. His career trajectory took him from editorial roles at magazines like Men’s Health and Stuff to becoming a prominent voice on Fox News, where he hosted Red Eye from 2007 to 2015 before launching The Greg Gutfeld Show (later rebranded as Gutfeld!). The show, which debuted in 2015, became a ratings juggernaut, overtaking traditional late-night giants like The Late Show with Stephen Colbert by August 2021 with an average of 2.12 million nightly viewers. Gutfeld’s blend of political satire, pop culture commentary, and a rotating panel of comedians and pundits has made him a unique figure in media—a “king of late night,” as his official site proclaims.
Yet, despite his public persona, Gutfeld has fiercely guarded his private life. His marriage to Elena Moussa, a Russian-born fashion stylist and former photo editor for Maxim Russia, began in 2004 after a whirlwind romance. The couple met in Portugal during a work trip, where Gutfeld, then editor-in-chief of Maxim UK, recalls an instant connection: “I met her and I go, ‘Oh, that’s my wife,’” he told Bill Maher on the Club Random Podcast in 2023. Their wedding, a civil ceremony in New York just five months later, marked the start of a partnership that has remained largely out of the spotlight. Moussa, now 43, is a private figure, occasionally sharing glimpses of her fashion work on Instagram but rarely posting about her husband or their life together. The couple’s French bulldog, Gus, adopted in October 2022, has been a more frequent star, appearing on The Five and Gutfeld! to the delight of viewers.
The arrival of Miran, born in late 2024, was a closely guarded secret, a testament to Gutfeld’s ability to compartmentalize his public and private worlds. For months, fans noticed his intermittent absences from The Five and Gutfeld!, with guest hosts like Kat Timpf, Tyrus, and Tom Shillue filling in. Speculation ran rampant—some wondered if Gutfeld was facing health issues, others suspected a career shift. But on December 10, 2024, the truth emerged, and it was far more heartwarming than any rumor. Gutfeld himself addressed fans on X, writing, “See, that’s how you keep a secret. Thanks to all the nice words! See ya in a few!” The post, paired with his trademark wit, confirmed that his absence was due to paternity leave, a rare move for a late-night host known for his relentless schedule.
