Peter Doocy is a White House correspondent for Fox News while Hillary Vaughn serves as a Washington-based correspondent for FOX Business. The pair married in April of 2021. 

Bridget is the couple's first child and Steve and Kathy Doocy's first grandchild. Doocy relayed a story from his son about some advice from President Biden.

"At the Christmas party at the White House, Hillary and Peter walked over and the president talked to him. And Peter said, 'Do you have any advice for me, Mr. President? We're having a daughter,'" Steve Doocy shared. 

"And [the president] seemed touched by it. And then he said, 'You know what, Peter, hold her close. Just hold her close.' And Peter says, 'That's good advice.'"

The "Fox & Friends" co-host said he and his wife are looking forward to spoiling their new granddaughter.

"With our three children, we were always rule followers, but now that we are grandparents, we are going to be rule breakers. And if the baby wants to have dinner at Dairy Queen, let's go."
