Fox News stars Kat Timpf and Greg Gutfeld, known for their sharp wit on Gutfeld! and The Five, have recently opened up about their lives as new parents, sharing candid insights into the joys and struggles of raising their children. Timpf, 36, welcomed her son, Felix, in February 2025, while Gutfeld, 60, became a first-time father to daughter Mira in November 2024. In interviews and on-air moments, they’ve dropped surprising details about their parenting challenges, heartwarming home habits, and the adorable nicknames they’ve given their kids. Here’s the full story of how these media personalities navigate parenthood, blending humor with raw emotion. 😍👶

Parenting Challenges: A Raw Look at the Struggle

Gutfeld, meanwhile, has been vocal about the shock of fatherhood at 60. On Gutfeld! in January 2025, he joked, “Mira’s got more energy than me, and I’m supposed to keep up? I’m too old for this!” Behind the humor, he’s shared genuine struggles. In a Variety interview, he admitted, “My career’s 24/7, and now Mira’s the real boss. I’m terrible at diapers—Elena does 90% of the work.” Gutfeld’s demanding schedule, including hosting The Five and Gutfeld! (averaging 4.6 million and 2.5 million viewers, respectively), leaves little time for parenting, causing guilt. He confessed on Bill Maher’s Club Random podcast, “I’m selfish by nature. Mira’s forcing me to rethink everything.”

Adorable Home Habits: Chaos and Connection

Timpf’s recovery from surgery has shaped their habits. Unable to lift Felix for weeks, she’d lie on the couch with him napping on her chest, reading her book I Used to Like You Until… aloud as a “bedtime story.” She told People, “Felix doesn’t get the satire yet, but he loves my voice.” Friscia, a former Army Ranger, handles bath time, turning it into a “military operation” with precise timing and a playlist of 80s rock. Timpf laughed, “Cameron’s stricter with the bath bubbles than he was in the Army.”

The couples’ friendship has led to shared habits. In April 2025, Timpf and Friscia temporarily moved into Gutfeld’s Manhattan brownstone to navigate early parenthood together, creating a “Fox News commune.” They set up whiteboards for feeding schedules, rotated diaper shifts, and held “midnight venting sessions” over decaf coffee. Timpf said, “Greg’s useless at swaddling, but his bad dad jokes keep us sane.” The arrangement, though chaotic, fostered a bond, with Mira and Felix napping side by side while the adults binged Challengers—Gutfeld’s favorite 2024 film.

Timpf and Gutfeld’s nicknames for their kids are as colorful as their personalities. Timpf calls Felix “Lila Bean,” inspired by his “tiny, bean-like toes” and her love for purple (lila in Spanish). She revealed on Fox News Saturday Night in April 2025, “Felix is my Lila Bean—he’s small but mighty, like a punk-rock superhero.” Friscia uses “Captain Chaos” for Felix’s knack for spitting up at the worst moments, a name Timpf shared on X, posting, “Captain Chaos strikes again! RIP my favorite hoodie. 😅 #MomLife.”

Fan Reactions and What’s Next

Both are balancing parenthood with their careers. Timpf returned to TV on May 12, 2025, joining Gutfeld on Fox Nation’s What Did I Miss?, a game show where contestants guess real versus fake headlines. Gutfeld continues dominating late-night, with Gutfeld! holding its top spot. Their parenting journey, marked by vulnerability and humor, resonates with fans, proving even TV stars struggle—and shine—in the chaos of raising kids.
