Laura Ingraham, a prominent figure at Fox News, boasts a distinguished career while keeping her personal life largely private. Born in 1963 into a working-class family, she graduated high school in 1981 and went on to attend Dartmouth College, where she made history as the first female editor of the Dartmouth Review, navigating controversy and even facing a libel lawsuit during her tenure.
After college, Ingraham served as a speechwriter in the Reagan administration, earned her Juris Doctor, and clerked for federal judges. Her media career took off in the mid-1990s with her hosting role on MSNBC’s “Watch It!” and later the launch of “The Laura Ingraham Show.” In 2017, she became the host of Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle.”
While Ingraham has achieved significant success professionally, her personal life, particularly her relationships, has garnered attention. She has dated figures like Dinesh D’Souza and Keith Olbermann.
Her engagement to James V. Reyes ended sadly in 2005 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer, but she triumphed over the illness and is now cancer-free.
A strong advocate for adoption, Ingraham has adopted three children: Maria from Guatemala and Dmitri and Nikolai from Russia. At 60, she continues to balance a flourishing career with her commitment to raising her family in Washington, D.C.
Despite her long-standing public presence, Ingraham maintains a level of privacy, allowing her professional accomplishments to take the spotlight.
