Gutfeld gets brutally mocked by his guests over baby news due to his age – ‘not long left’

Amidst the usual banter on Fox News, a surprising announcement about Greg Gutfeld’s new role as a father at 60 has left his viewers and co-hosts buzzing.

“It is the best time to have a kid when you’re 60,” actor and former pro wrestler Tyrus said. “He can use the time he has got left so he is not going to miss the first steps and the baseball games.”

“Granted being at 60, it is not a long marathon,” he added.

Lisa ‘Kennedy’ Montgomery joked that Greg would have sore nipples for a bit, while Brian Kilmeade bodly stated: “I have a fear he is going to be a terrible parent.”

Since his weeks-long absence, Dana Perino has hosted the show, and she released a statement on Gutfeld’s behalf.

“This is going to be a great surprise for a lot of you,” Dana began, pointing out: “You might have noticed that our friend Greg Gutfeld hasn’t been here for a couple of weeks, and it’s for a good reason.

“This is a statement that he sent me today. So I’m reading this as if I’m Greg,” she continued before relaying the message to viewers.

“It is with great joy that my wife Elana and I have welcomed a baby girl into the world. Mira is healthy with a real set of lungs.”

Greg and Elena met in London while she was working as a photo editor for a men’s magazine, Maxim. He was the U.K. edition’s editor from 2004 to 2006.

The couple got married in 2004 and relocated to New York City.
