In a heartwarming twist that no one saw coming, Gutfeld! reached record-breaking ratings Tuesday night — and it had nothing to do with politics. Instead, the unexpected star was newborn Baby Mira, daughter of host Greg Gutfeld, whose surprise appearance on set lit up the studio and sent shockwaves across the internet.

The Fox News late-night show, known for its edgy humor and political commentary, saw a different kind of spotlight moment when Gutfeld introduced his daughter to the audience for the very first time. But it was an adorable and unscripted interaction with co-host Tyrus that truly stole the show — and viewers’ hearts.

“She’s Already Got Timing Like Her Dad”

Baby Mira, nestled in her father’s arms, unexpectedly reached out toward Tyrus as he joked about diaper duty — and to everyone’s delight, gave him a tiny high five. The crowd erupted in laughter and applause, and even Gutfeld was momentarily speechless.

“Okay, that’s it. She’s officially part of the show now,” Gutfeld said with a proud grin.

Tyrus, known for his tough exterior and no-nonsense commentary, melted on camera.

“You see that? That kid’s gonna run this network someday,” he joked.

RECORD RATINGS SHATTERED

That sweet moment didn’t just go viral — it also pushed Gutfeld! to its highest ratings since its launch, officially breaking the October 2022 record of 2.5 million viewers in a single night. Early Nielsen data confirms Tuesday’s episode brought in 2.7 million viewers, a number that has stunned analysts and delighted the network.

KAT TIMPF JOINS THE CELEBRATION

Though she wasn’t on set for the episode, co-host Kat Timpf didn’t waste a second responding. In a live tweet, she wrote:

“I NEED to meet Baby Mira immediately. Count me in for breaking even more records — we’re coming for you, Tyrus!”

The post has since garnered tens of thousands of likes and comments, with fans already begging for an on-air reunion of Timpf, Mira, and Tyrus.

FANS CAN’T GET ENOUGH

Social media lit up with clips of the moment, and hashtags like #BabyMira, #GutfeldTonight, and #FoxNewsBaby trended well into the night.

“This is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen on Fox News,” one user posted.
“Greg Gutfeld might’ve just secured the next 10 years of ratings,” another joked.

Even celebrities chimed in. Comedian Tim Dillon reposted the clip, writing:

“Baby Mira just did more for late-night TV in 10 seconds than half the industry in 10 years.”

WHAT’S NEXT FOR MIRA?

While Gutfeld has remained fiercely private about his family, insiders say the newborn’s appearance may not be her last.

“Let’s just say… she made an impression,” one staffer teased.

With fans calling for “Mira Mondays” and others asking for baby-themed segments, it’s clear the public has fallen in love with Fox News’ tiniest new star.

As one fan perfectly put it:

“Politics come and go… but Baby Mira is forever.”
