Greg Gutfeld is back on television — but this time, he’s returning not just as a Fox News host, but as a brand-new father navigating sleepless nights inside his $10.5 million Manhattan loft.
After 46 days away from the spotlight, the 60-year-old anchor reappeared on The Five and his late-night show Gutfeld! with something noticeably different: softer edges, self-deprecating humor, and stories from home about baby Mira.
In December, Gutfeld and his wife of nearly two decades, Elena Moussa, quietly welcomed their first child together. The announcement ended weeks of speculation from viewers who had noticed his sudden absence. In a brief but characteristically witty statement, he shared: “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.” He added that she inherited Elena’s “beautiful eyes” and his “rock-hard abs.”
Now settled back at work, Gutfeld has been candid — and comically honest — about how fatherhood is unfolding behind closed doors.
When co-host Dana Perino asked whether he was helping with 2 a.m. feedings, he didn’t hesitate.
“I kind of wander around and go, ‘Is everything okay?’” he admitted. “I give emotional support.”
According to Gutfeld, much of the hands-on work falls to Elena. “She says I’m terrible at everything. I’m very clumsy,” he joked, suggesting that diaper duty may not be his strongest skill set.
His 46-day leave, Jesse Watters teased, must have been productive. Gutfeld responded with typical sarcasm: he binge-watched everything Taylor Sheridan has ever created. But beneath the humor was something unmistakable — a man adjusting to a long-anticipated new chapter.
In preparation for fatherhood, Gutfeld made a significant real estate move months before Mira’s arrival. In July 2024, he purchased a $10.5 million SoHo loft through the same LLC used to buy his previous home. The 3,560-square-foot property sits inside a converted early-1900s six-story building redesigned by DXA Studio. The luxury condo previously sold in 2021 for $8.55 million and already featured a room staged as a child’s bedroom — a detail that now feels prophetic.
Despite upgrading, Gutfeld did not sell his former Manhattan apartment. Instead, he listed the three-bedroom property for rent at $24,000 per month, and the listing was quickly removed — suggesting it found a tenant fast.
The added space in the new loft offers room for cribs, changing tables, and the endless gear that accompanies newborn life. And when city life becomes overwhelming, the couple can retreat to their South Salem lake house, purchased in 2018 — a modern wood-and-glass escape often featured on Gutfeld’s social media, alongside photos of their beloved French bulldog, Gus.
Gutfeld and Moussa’s story began in Portugal in the early 2000s when he was editing Maxim UK and she worked as a photo editor for Maxim Russia. He once recalled on Bill Maher’s podcast that he knew immediately she would be his wife. After just five months, they married in 2004.
Now, more than twenty years later, they are beginning a new chapter — one filled with diapers, midnight check-ins, and what Gutfeld jokingly calls “emotional support.”
Behind the sarcasm and punchlines, however, is something more grounded: a 60-year-old first-time father quietly discovering that the biggest life changes don’t happen on air — they happen at 2 a.m., in the soft glow of a nursery light.
