Peter Doocy, a Fox News White House correspondent, and his wife, Hillary Vaughn, achieved a milestone last spring that will never happen again. On April 16, 2025, they welcomed their second child, a son called George Jack Doocy. It was already a big day for them because it was their fourth wedding anniversary. Love, strength, and the birth of a new life after a hard 30-hour labor made the day great. It was a meeting of the past, present, and future.
People know Peter for being amusing on TV, and he kept funny even when he was going through the emotional highs and lows of giving birth. He said to People, “George came out after thirty hours of labor on our anniversary.” “Thanks, son, for making sure I never forget the card your mom sent me.” His lightheartedness shows that the two of them can find humor and significance in even the worst situations. This skill definitely helped them deal with the stress of having a new kid and the long labor.
George weighed 7 pounds and 6 ounces when he got here. He woke up, was healthy, and adored straight away. New infants typically mean change, but the Doocy family was even more pleased about his arrival. Bridget Blake, their daughter, was born in early 2023, and since then, she has been the most important thing in their lives. She was full of the confidence and wonder that only a child can have when she started her new job. She said “Happy Birthday” to her little brother as soon as she saw him. That great song started a new chapter in the lives of both George and Bridget.
Peter and Hillary thought the event was even more memorable when they saw their daughter hug her baby brother. They wanted their kids to develop closer over time, with a strong, lasting bond made up of shared laughter, arguments, and the kind of love that only siblings know.
All of a sudden, everything at home moved from being immaculate to being a nice mess. Hillary, a FOX Business reporter and mother, laughed about how quickly she had to get used to being a “boy mom.” The change happened rapidly and taught me a lot, like how to handle surprises when changing diapers and sleep patterns that weren’t always the same. She stated, “It’s a different kind of whirlwind.” “I thought I was ready, but George is always teaching me new things and keeping me on my toes.”
It was hard, but you could tell they were having fun. Peter said that his house felt not only fuller but also richer. “Bridget is pulling on my sleeve, George is crying, and Hillary is happy. You never want to be without this kind of noise. He likes this kind of pandemonium because he’s used to dealing with press conferences with a lot at stake and the ups and downs of national politics.
The Doocy family was happy about more than just the nuclear unit. Steve Doocy, Peter’s dad and a long-time co-host of Fox & Friends, was pleased to be a grandfather again. “This is the best promotion I’ve ever had,” he said with pride. Steve has always appreciated being a family man, and adding a second granddaughter has just made that bond stronger. People think he’s funny and nice. He was clearly happy of how well his son was doing as a father, especially how gracefully and humorously he did it.
Peter and Hillary’s story is about how love and the unknown can make people better. Their wedding anniversary was already a day to remember and be thankful for, but now that they have a child, it’s even more special. When Hillary thought about the long hours of work, she didn’t sugarcoat it. She stated, “It was the hardest and best anniversary gift we could have ever given each other.” She felt proud but tired.
“Covering politics keeps me on my toes,” Peter stated one last time, blending truth with comedy. This is what they did on their trip. But really? It’s hard to be a parent, but it’s also really fantastic.
The Doocy family has entered a new chapter since George came. At this stage, there are a lot of funny things, messes, big events, and memories. Peter and Hillary are known for their smart reporting and interviews, but their best stories unfold at home, one pleasant day at a time.
