Now, he will join co-hosts Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, and Brian Kilmeade from 6-9 AM on weekday mornings starting September 18.

“I feel that when it comes to the couch, you really get a sense of America. We have this incredible opportunity to represent our audience every day on the couch, and I’m so grateful and humbled. I will learn a lot from all of you, and it’s going to be an exciting journey,” Jones said on Thursday’s show.

FOX & Friends is on track to be the most-watched program in its time slot for the 23rd consecutive year, consistently outperforming CNN and MSNBC’s morning shows.

At 30 years old, Jones made history as the youngest Black solo host on cable news when Lawrence Jones Cross Country launched last year.

As host of Lawrence Jones Cross Country, which aired from January 2022 until last week, Jones traveled across the country to bring viewers the latest insights on pressing issues. One Nation with Brian Kilmeade will now air at 9 PM ET on Saturday nights in its place.

Throughout his career, Jones has always remembered a key piece of advice from Sean Hannity.

“When I first got into this business, Hannity told me, ‘Just be LJ,’” he shared with Fox News Digital last year.
