Inside Brian Kilmeade and Dawn’s Long-Lasting Love
High School Sweethearts Still Going Strong
Brian Kilmeade and Dawn DeGaetano have been together since high school. They tied the knot on December 3, 1993, and have stayed inseparable ever since. Together, they’ve raised three children: Bryan (1997), Kaitlyn (2002), and Kristyn (2004).
Though Brian commands mornings on Fox & Friends and hosts on Fox News Radio, the couple prefers a low profile. They live in Massapequa, Long Island, enjoying family life away from Manhattan’s chaos.
Dawn Kilmeade: Boutique Owner and Entrepreneur
Dawn, born April 17, 1964, grew up in New York alongside her sister Denise Duso. After attending Hofstra University, she transformed her passion for fashion into a business.
She co-founded Wild Willows Boutique in Massapequa with college friend Kathy Camada. The women’s clothing store has earned a loyal local following.
Dawn admits balancing family and business, especially during holidays, isn’t easy. “We had to figure out how to manage our own personal holiday with the store,” she told the Massapequa Post in 2023.
Family Life Behind the Scenes
In a Fox News Insider interview, Dawn and her kids shared what life at home is like with Brian.
“Brian never stops moving,” they joked. “When he’s not tracking the news or teaching history lessons, he’s begging us to play soccer in the backyard.”
From power-packed mornings on TV to lively evenings at home, the Kilmeades blend media fame with family fun.
