Fox News White House Correspondent Peter Doocy is back. Doocy, son of “Fox & Friends” co-host Steve Doocy, returned to the conservative cable news network Monday morning after an extended paternity leave.
His absence from the White House briefing room hadn't gone unnoticed by fans. But the importance of quality time with his infant daughter and wife trumped grilling Biden administration Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. (RELATED: Ted Cruz Shares Interesting Theory On White House Cocaine Culprit)
Doocy, 36, announced the arrival of a baby girl, Bridget, with his wife and Fox Business reporter Hillary Vaughn on Feb. 9. The couple welcomed their daughter into the world eight days before.
After describing the joys and stressors of postnatal life, familiar to every parent, Doocy shared candid photos of baby Bridget enjoying pool time with daddy in objectively adorable summery outfits.
One co-worker gave Doocy and Vaughn a onesie emblazoned with the words “Future President.”
“Keep an eye out for the Fox News Democracy 2060 coverage,” the beaming father joked.
The Daily Caller continues:
His routine included waking up at 7 a.m., giving her a bottle, and going for a walk. The baby is now eating solid food, including sweet potatoes.
Doocy announced the birth of Bridget Blake Doocy in a Feb. 9 social media post. He and his wife announced they were expecting a baby girl during a “Fox & Friends” segment in September as his father, Steve Doocy, shared recipes from his cookbook.
At a White House press briefing held Jan. 3, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre joked that Doocy should name his daughter after her. Doocy replied the couple would take Jean-Pierre's suggestion “under advisement.”
He also posted a photograph in a Jan. 6 Instagram post of him shouting a question to President Joe Biden. He captioned the post reading, “MISTER PRESIDENT, WHAT SHOULD WE NAME OUR DAUGHTER?”

SIX MONTHS OF PATERNITY LEAVE???? That’s ridiculous.
Congrats! Now go after that ugly little liar!
Name her after the former press secretary I think
“Circle Back” would be a cute name for a girl.
