Hannity, 62, proposed to Earhart, 48, at a church in Florida. The couple described the location as “the perfect place” for their special moment. The couple, who bonded over their shared faith, thanked their family for their love and support during a “wonderful time” in their lives.
“We are so happy and so grateful to our family for their love and support during this wonderful time in our lives,” they told Fox News. The couple also revealed that their children congratulated them on their engagement, saying, “They couldn’t be happier.”
Children from the couple’s previous marriage were informed and consented in advance. Hannity has two children, Patrick and Meri, with ex-wife Jill Rose, whom he married in 1993 but divorced in 2019. Earhart has a daughter, Hayden, with ex-husband Will Proctor. Earhart and Proctor married in 2012 and finalized their divorce in 2019. The couple emphasized that they still maintain friendly relations with their ex-spouse and that everyone supports their marriage.
After their engagement, Hannity and Earhart met with their pastor to further solidify the spiritual foundation of their relationship.
