Greg Gutfeld and Wife Elena Moussa Share Exciting News, Silencing Fox News Exit Rumors

After a brief absence from The Five, Greg Gutfeld has finally revealed the reason behind his temporary departure from Fox News. Contrary to speculation that he might be leaving the network, the truth turned out to be a joyful milestone in his personal life. His wife, Elena Moussa – who has always maintained a private life – has welcomed a new addition to their family with Gutfeld.

Elena Moussa: From Photo Editor to New Mom

Moussa, now 42 years old, is 18 years younger than her husband. The couple met in London in the early 2000s when Elena was a photo editor for Maxim magazine, and Gutfeld was the editor-in-chief of its UK edition from 2004 to 2006. According to People, they first met during a business trip to Portugal in 2004, quickly developed a relationship, and later moved in together. After a period in London, they eventually settled in New York following Gutfeld’s departure from his editorial role.

Married After Just Five Months of Dating

Moussa and Gutfeld tied the knot after only five months of dating. In his book Lessons from the Land of Pork Scratchings, Gutfeld candidly shared:

“Things with Elena are great. After dating for five months, we got married.”

Such a quick engagement might not be uncommon in relationships with a significant age gap.

A New Addition to the Family

On December 10, 2024, Gutfeld’s colleagues, including Jesse Watters, shared the exciting news that Greg Gutfeld and Elena Moussa had officially become parents to a baby girl. This is their first child together, following years of only co-parenting their beloved French Bulldog, Gus.

In a lighthearted statement, Gutfeld wrote:

“With great joy, my wife Elena and I welcome our baby girl, Mira, into the world. She is healthy, with a strong pair of lungs. She has her mother’s beautiful eyes and my rock-hard abs. We’re teaching her three languages, and she’s already observant enough to ask if Jesse wears a toupee. I told her—he definitely wears a wig!”

With this announcement, rumors of Gutfeld’s potential departure from Fox News, fueled by previous controversies in 2023, were put to rest.

Elena Moussa’s Career

Elena Moussa is an established fashion professional. According to her LinkedIn profile, she studied at the prestigious Parsons School of Design and the Fashion Institute of Technology. In addition to her experience as a photo editor, she managed a fashion project called “The Moussa Project” for seven years. Most recently, she worked as a design director for the luxury clothing brand Adolfo Dominguez from 2022 to 2023.

On her Instagram, Moussa frequently shares fashion trends and her personal style but rarely posts couple selfies with her husband. Born and raised in Russia, she began her editorial career at Maxim Russia, which ultimately led to her fateful encounter with Greg Gutfeld.
