EXCLUSIVE: Fox News' Jesse Watters is expecting a baby boy - his first child with his ex-producer bride, 28, who he had affair with while married to first wife (and mother of his two daughters)
Fox News star Jesse Watters is expecting a baby boy with his new wife Emma DiGiovine, just 10 months after tying the knot, sources close to the couple exclusively told DailyMail.com.
This will be Watters' third child, sharing twin daughters with ex wife Noelle, who filed for divorce in October 2018.
The 42-year-old had admitted to cheating on Noelle with Emma, 28, who worked as an associate producer on his show Watters' World. Watters fessed up to his bosses at Fox about the affair shortly after Noelle filed for divorce.
Emma was transferred to work for The Ingraham Angle, but she and Watters continued to date and married in a star-studded ceremony in December 2019.
Watters confirmed DailyMail.com's scoop while co-hosting The Five on Monday evening, telling his colleagues the happy news and revealed the baby's gender by having them cut into a cupcake that had blue filling.
Soon after, Emma took to social media to celebrate too, revealing they are expecting their baby boy to arrive in Spring 2021, adding: 'The news is out! We are expecting a baby boy this spring! We are so excited!! Thank you so much for all the well wishes.'

Special guests at Watters' wedding included Donald Trump Jr, Kimberly Guilfoyle, and Eric and Lara Trump.
Kelly Dodd, a cast member from The Real Housewives of Orange County, had taken to her Instagram on December 30 to share photos from the wedding in Naples, Florida.
'Beautiful wedding with an impressive guest list,' Dodd said in the post.
The nuptials came just nine months after Watters' divorce from Noelle was finalized.
Watters married Noelle Inguagiato in 2009. They also met on the job at Fox News.
He was working for Bill O'Reilly's show and she worked for the advertising and promotions department and was the host of a web show called iMag Style.
In 2011, the couple had a pair of twin daughters Ellie and Sophie. Noelle never returned from maternity leave, while Watters' star rose at Fox News.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Emma became Watters' associate producer in June 2016, when his segment was still part of O'Reilly's show.
Emma appears to have a close relationship with Watters' daughters, frequently seen in social media pictures hugging the girls.
Watters is said to be a favorite cable news personality of President Donald Trump, seen visiting the White House and also at dinner with the President

Watters is the host of his show Watters' World, which airs on Saturdays, and is also co-host of The Five. He got his start at the network in 2002 as a production assistant.
Known for his brash, macho and sometimes obnoxious style, Watters hosted a segment on the O'Reilly Factor that combined man-on-the street with ambush journalism.
Watters' humorous approach fell flat at times, such as in an October 2016 segment he filmed in New York City's Chinatown. It was panned as 'racist' after he wandered the streets asking locals if they knew karate and how often their watches were stolen.
The segment, Watters' World, was spun out into a weekly show in January 2017. It airs at 8pm on Saturdays, combining humor and political news in a fresh slant aimed at a younger audience.
When O'Reilly was ousted from the network in April 2017, over revelations that he'd secretly settled numerous sexual harassment suits, Watters also replaced Eric Bolling on The Five. Bolling himself was ousted in September over sexual harassment allegations.
Watters is said to be a favorite cable news personality of President Donald Trump, seen visiting the White House and also at dinner with the President.
Trump asked Watters and former aide Sebastian Gorka to dinner at the White House because 'he couldn’t get enough of them on TV', one source told the Daily Beast.
Trump even signed the menu, which Watters tweeted a picture of. It read: 'To Jesse you are great!'
