BREAKING: Greg Gutfeld Welcomes Baby Girl Miran at 59 – Delivery Room Comment Stuns Everyone!
In a heartwarming and surprising turn of events, Fox News host Greg Gutfeld, at the age of 59, has welcomed his first child, a baby girl named Miran, with his wife, Elena Moussa. The announcement, which came in early December 2024, sent waves of excitement and curiosity through Gutfeld’s fanbase and the media world alike. Known for his sharp wit, irreverent humor, and commanding presence on Gutfeld! and The Five, the comedian and commentator has now stepped into a new role: fatherhood. What has everyone talking, however, is not just the birth of his daughter but the unexpected comment he made in the delivery room that left those present both shocked and amused.
A New Chapter for Guelfe
Greg Gutfeld, a staple of late-night television and one of Fox News’ most recognizable personalities, has built a career on his biting sarcasm and libertarian-leaning commentary. His show Gutfeld! has consistently topped late-night ratings, outpacing competitors like Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert, with an average of 2.5 million viewers in 2024. At 59, Gutfeld seemed to have his life meticulously planned: a successful career, a luxurious $10.5 million SoHo loft purchased in July 2024, and a marriage to Elena Moussa, a former photo editor for Maxim Russia, whom he met in Portugal in 2004. Yet, the arrival of Miran has turned his world upside down—in the best way possible.
The news of Miran’s birth was kept under wraps until Gutfeld’s co-hosts, Dana Perino and Jesse Watters, announced it on The Five on December 10, 2024. Gutfeld himself confirmed the joyous occasion with a humorous post on X, writing, “See, that’s how you keep a secret. Thank you all for the nice words! See you in a few!” His statement about the birth, shared on The Five, was equally lighthearted: “It is with great joy that my wife Elena and I have welcomed a baby girl into the world. Mira is healthy with a real set of lungs. She has her mother’s beautiful eyes and my rock-hard abs.”
The Delivery Room Moment That Stole the Show
While Gutfeld’s announcement was charmingly predictable in its humor, it was his quip in the delivery room that has sparked widespread buzz. According to sources close to the family, as Miran was born and the room filled with the emotional weight of the moment, Gutfeld, true to form, couldn’t resist injecting his signature wit. As the doctors handed Miran to Elena, Gutfeld reportedly said, “Well, I guess my late-night monologues just got a new audience member—and she’s already crying louder than my critics!” The comment, delivered with his characteristic smirk, left the medical staff and Elena in stitches, with one nurse reportedly saying it was the first time she’d laughed during a delivery.
This quip encapsulates Gutfeld’s approach to life: no moment is too serious to be met with humor. Fans on social media have since celebrated the comment, with one X user posting, “Only Greg Gutfeld could turn a delivery room into a comedy club! Congrats to him and Elena!” Another wrote, “Miran’s first cry was probably a review of her dad’s jokes—10/10 for effort!” The anecdote has only added to Gutfeld’s reputation as a man who never misses an opportunity to land a punchline, even in the most profound moments.
Fatherhood at 59: A Life-Changing Shift
Gutfeld’s journey into fatherhood at 59 is remarkable not only for his age but for the way he has openly discussed the transformation it has brought. In a January 2025 segment on Gutfeld!, he returned to the airwaves after a 46-day paternity leave and shared candid reflections on his new role. “I’ve mastered the art of being selfish,” he admitted, referencing his pre-fatherhood life. “But becoming a parent has taught me that 60 years of regret completely vanish when you hold your kid.” He described how his “entire home has changed” since Miran’s arrival, with his $10.5 million Manhattan apartment now filled with baby gear and the sounds of a newborn.
Gutfeld’s wife, Elena Moussa, 42, has been praised by the host for taking on the lion’s share of parenting duties during the early weeks. “Elena’s doing the heavy lifting,” he said on The Five. “I’m just trying not to break anything—literally or figuratively.” Despite his self-deprecating humor, Gutfeld has expressed awe at the experience, noting that fatherhood has given him a new perspective. “Someone told me you can’t regret anything before her birth because if things hadn’t gone exactly as they did, she wouldn’t be here. That hit me hard,” he shared.
The Challenges of a New Dad
Gutfeld’s return to Fox News in January 2025 was marked by both celebration and a touch of vulnerability. He admitted that fatherhood at 59 “is not easy” and that he feels “terrible at everything” when it comes to parenting. His French Bulldog, Gus, has also struggled to adjust to the new family member, with Gutfeld joking, “Gus is not thrilled about his new sibling. He’s giving me the cold shoulder, and I’m pretty sure he’s plotting to bury her pacifier.”
The comedian’s absence from Gutfeld! and The Five sparked speculation among fans, with some worrying he had been fired. However, his co-hosts quickly dispelled those rumors, and Gutfeld’s return was met with an outpouring of support. Social media was flooded with messages like, “Welcome back, Greg! Mira’s lucky to have you as a dad!” and “Congrats on the baby girl—hope she inherits your sense of humor!”
A Busy 2025 Ahead
As Gutfeld settles into fatherhood, his professional life shows no signs of slowing down. In addition to his regular duties on Gutfeld! and The Five, he is set to host a special live broadcast of Gutfeld! from Washington, D.C., on January 20, 2025, during the presidential inauguration. He’s also collaborating with his colleague Kat Timpf, who recently returned to television after her own life-changing experience of giving birth to a son and undergoing cancer treatment, on a new Fox Nation show called What Did I Miss?.
The show, which promises to blend Gutfeld’s humor with Timpf’s sharp insights, has already generated buzz for its unique premise: contestants who have been isolated from society must distinguish real headlines from fake ones. Fox Nation President Lauren Petterson praised Gutfeld’s ability to “help isolated Americans catch up on the headlines they missed during an unprecedented news cycle.”
A New Legacy for Guelf
Greg Gutfeld’s journey into fatherhood at 59 is a testament to his ability to embrace life’s unexpected turns with humor and grace. Miran’s arrival has not only reshaped his priorities but also endeared him further to fans who admire his authenticity. His delivery room quip—turning a sacred moment into a comedic one—proves that Gutfeld remains true to his brand, even as he navigates the uncharted waters of parenthood.
As he balances diaper changes with late-night monologues, Gutfeld is proving that age is just a number when it comes to starting a family. Miran, with her “beautiful eyes” and “rock-hard abs,” is already stealing the show, and fans can’t wait to see how Gutfeld’s new role as a dad influences his humor and perspective in the years to come. For now, one thing is clear: Greg Gutfeld is a father, a comedian, and a man who knows how to make even the delivery room laugh.
