Jesse Watters' Second Wife Is Emma DiGiovine and They Share a Son
For Fox News host Jesse Watters, age is nothing but a number, especially in the affairs of the heart. He is married to Emma DiGiovine, about fourteen years his junior. Jesse Watters' wife is also a mom to their only son. Here are facts about the couple.
Shortly before the covid-19 pandemic, Fox News host and producer Jesse Watters became a married man again. In 2020, the then-41-year-old shocked fans with photos of his wedding to his former associate producer, Emma DiGiovine.
Jesse shared an adorable shot from the couple's memorable day via his Twitter page. For the event, his bride was dressed in a crisp white gown with a revealing back. At the same time, her hair was adorned with a matching veil.
Despite it being his second time tying the knot, the groom brought his A-game, complementing his bride in a two-piece suit.
Jesse and DiGiovine celebrated their wedding in Naples, Florida. It was a star-studded event with guests like Eric and Lara Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Kimberly Guilfoyle, and Kelly Dodd.
Dodd, a star from "The Real Housewives of Orange County," captured other pleasant moments from the event. She later shared photos via her Instagram page.
Initially, the couple worked together on Jesse's Fox show, "Watters World," before falling in love. Once their relationship became consensual, it was reported that DiGiovine was moved to another network.
Despite the job shift, they remained together. In fact, at the time of their affair, Jesse was still married to Noelle Inguagiato, his first wife. Although he confessed to the affair in 2017, two years later, the former couple divorced after ten years of marriage.
Jesse Watters' Second Wife is Emma DiGiovine
Like her husband, DiGiovine has a padded resume. However, the 30-year-old is a New Jersey native who became interested in dancing from a young age.
The duo welcomed Jesse Bailey Watters Jr., their first and only child, a year after their wedding. For Jesse, this is his third child and first son.
She studied at the Academy of Saint Elizabeth in Morristown, an all-girls high school, and later spent ten years performing ballet in a dance company. DiGiovine inherited her passion for dancing from her mother. According to her:
"Throughout middle school and high school, I took ballet classes six days a week at a prestigious studio in Manhattan. When I was 15, I performed at the Metropolitan Opera House in NYC with the American Ballet Theatre."
Even though DiGiovine was studying for a degree in journalism, she became interested in fitness modeling, and between 2012 to 2014, she was signed under MSA Models.
The following year, the journalism graduate landed a job with Fox News as a production assistant for John Stossel. Soon, she jumped on Jesse's "Watters' World" production before working on "The Five."
When the pair became intimate, DiGiovine was transferred to another show, "The Ingraham Angle." Almost three years after becoming Jesse's wife, she launched a new career by creating a Members-Only Lifestyle website.
The goal of her website is to share more details about her lifestyle, including "hair, skincare, and makeup tutorials; health and diet tips; fitness tips; how to shop; book reviews; fashion advice; recipes and cooking videos; interviews with my husband Jesse and other important people in my life and so much more."
Watters and Emma DiGiovine Have a Son
Despite having an affair before becoming an official couple, the pair have been very proud of their love story. To Jesse, it was a story with a happy ending, as they ended up getting married.
While speaking on "The Five" as a co-host, Jesse gushed about their romance and shed light on how it all began. In his words:
"She couldn't go anywhere. She needed a lift, I said, 'Hey, you need a lift?' She hopped right in the car."
The Fox News host mentioned that his wife was unaware of his plan until he shared it on-air. When asked if he always used the tactic, Jesse confidently responded, saying it "works like a charm."
His revelation about the genesis of their romance went viral and, expectedly, stirred different reactions from fans and critics. While some gushed about the couple's seemingly fairytale story, others criticized it (he was married at the time).
Glaringly, the couple does not mind what the world thinks; since sharing their vows, they have expressed their love for each other.
The duo welcomed Jesse Bailey Watters Jr., their first and only child, a year after their wedding. For Jesse, this is his third child and first son. Even though it's DiGiovine's first time as a mother, she has proven to be prepared for the journey ahead.
Before marrying the producer, DiGiovine shared a close relationship with his daughters. And this love appears to be mutual, as her stepkids were present for their brother's baptism in 2021.
Jesse Watters' Previous Wife
Before Jesse's history with DiGiovine, the producer married Noelle Inguagiato. He married his first wife in 2009, and their marriage produced twin daughters, Ellie and Sophie.
Not much is known about the former couple, except that their marriage hit the rocks in 2018, shortly after Jesse's affair with his current wife.
Inguagiato filed for divorce, and the process took another year before it was finalized. Finally, after Jesse was declared a single man, he proposed to his younger lover and former colleague.
So far, the couple is doing great, and there have been no negative reports from his ex-wife concerning co-parenting or further controversy.
