Abby Huntsman

Abby Huntsman is an American television host, journalist, and political commentator who has worked for some of the most prominent news and talk show programs in the country. Born on May 1, 1986, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, she is the daughter of Jon Huntsman Jr., the former Governor of Utah and United States Ambassador to China and Russia, and Mary Kaye Huntsman. Growing up in a politically prominent family, Abby developed an early interest in media and public affairs, which led her to pursue a career in broadcast journalism.

Abby began her television career at ABC News before joining the Huffington Post as a host and producer. She then moved to MSNBC, where she served as a host and correspondent, before joining Fox News in 2015 as a co-host of Fox and Friends Weekend. Her articulate commentary and ability to engage with viewers across the political spectrum made her a rising star in broadcast media. In 2018, she joined The View as a co-host, where she represented a moderate conservative perspective alongside the show’s diverse panel.

Abby departed The View in January 2020 to help manage her father’s gubernatorial campaign in Utah. Her time on the show was marked by thoughtful discussions and occasional tensions with fellow co-hosts, but she left on good terms and continued to make television appearances. She has also been involved in various media projects and philanthropic efforts aligned with her family’s charitable foundation.

In her personal life, Abby married Jeffrey Livingston in 2010, and the couple has three children, including twins born in 2019. Her combined income from television hosting, speaking engagements, media consulting, and family connections has contributed to an estimated net worth of $5 million as of 2026. She remains an influential voice in media and political commentary.
