He may be one of the most outspoken personalities on American television — but off camera, Jesse Watters is a proud dad of four whose world revolves around family dinners, school graduations, and bedtime giggles.
The Fox News host, 47, shares twin daughters Sophie and Ellie, 14, with his ex-wife Noelle Watters, and two younger children — Jesse Jr., 4, and Georgina, 2 — with his second wife, Emma DiGiovine Watters.

‘It’s chaos… but the best kind’: Jesse on fatherhood after four
Appearing on The Five in May 2023, just after returning from paternity leave, Jesse couldn’t hide his excitement about welcoming his youngest child, Georgina “Gigi” Post Watters.
“It was really nice these last two weeks because you spend a lot of quality time with the family,” he told his co-hosts. “I did change more diapers than I’m giving myself credit for, and Emma has just been spectacular.”
The TV host and proud dad looked every bit the family man as he later posed for a series of smiling photos with Emma and their four children — a snapshot of a softer, more affectionate side rarely seen on his fiery political panel show.

The twins who started it all – Sophie and Ellie, 14
Jesse and Noelle Watters welcomed twin daughters Sophie and Ellie on October 7, 2011 — and though the girls rarely appear on his Fox News broadcasts, their proud dad has given them plenty of shout-outs over the years.
The twins were even part of his second wedding to Emma in 2019, serving as flower girls in a beautiful New York ceremony that Jesse shared on Instagram.
Despite keeping them largely out of the spotlight, both parents often post touching tributes on social media. For their 13th birthday in 2024, Noelle shared a sweet message on Facebook, writing:
“Happy 13th, S and E. You are spectacular!”
Emma, their stepmother, echoed the sentiment with her own heartfelt words:
“My sweet twinnies! You taught me what it means to be a parent before I even knew I was ready. So proud of you both and the young ladies you’ve become.”
By June 2025, the twins had graduated from middle school — an event proudly marked by both Jesse and Emma, who shared photos of the entire blended family smiling under the summer sun.

Little Jesse Jr. – the “sunshine in human form”
When Jesse and Emma welcomed their first child together — Jesse Bailey Watters Jr. — on April 1, 2021, it was no April Fool’s joke.
The Fox News host announced the happy news on Instagram, writing:
“Emma and I are thrilled to welcome Jesse Bailey Watters, Jr. into our world. He clocked in on April Fools’ Day, weighing 7lbs 3oz.”
Since then, Jesse Jr. has become a fixture in his parents’ lives — often stealing the show in adorable family snapshots shared online. His mom, Emma, has described him as:
“Kind, curious, tender, stubborn, self-assured and whip-smart… sunshine in human form.”
When baby sister Georgina arrived two years later, Jesse revealed on The Five that his son had taken to big-brother duty like a pro — though not without a few toddler quirks.
“He’s been a great older brother,” Jesse laughed. “He kept throwing crackers into her bassinet — he just wanted to give her ‘more’!”

Meet Georgina “Gigi” Post Watters – the family’s tiny princess
The youngest of the Watters clan, Georgina “Gigi” Post Watters, was born on April 17, 2023, weighing 6lbs 3oz. Jesse announced her arrival with a joyful Instagram post alongside a beaming photo of Emma holding the newborn.
“Georgina (‘Gigi’) Post Watters born 6lbs 3oz… welcome to the world!” he wrote.
Back on The Five, Jesse shared the story behind her elegant middle name.
“Post is a family name on Emma’s side — her great-grandmother,” he explained. “We thought about Emma Jr. or Jessica, but Georgina Post just flowed beautifully.”
And just like her siblings, little Gigi has quickly stolen hearts. On her first birthday, Emma gushed in an Instagram tribute:
“Our sassy, fierce, bright-eyed little princess — fearless and spunky as ever. We love you endlessly.”
Recent photos show the two-year-old toddling alongside her big brother, often dressed in matching pastels as the family enjoys days out in New York and Washington, D.C.
