Lara Trump, daughter-in-law of former President Donald Trump and wife of Eric Trump, is set to host a new weekend primetime program on Fox News Channel titled “My View with Lara Trump.” The show is scheduled to premiere on February 22, 2025, and will air on Saturdays from 9 to 10 p.m. Eastern Time.
This appointment marks a significant milestone, as it is the first time a close relative of a former president will host their own show on a major network. Lara Trump has a background in media, having worked as a story coordinator and producer for “Inside Edition” from 2012 to 2016. She also served as a Fox News contributor from 2021 to 2022.
In the political arena, Lara Trump was a senior adviser during Donald Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign and was elected co-chair of the Republican National Committee in March 2024. She resigned from this position in December 2024 amid speculation about a potential appointment to the U.S. Senate, though she later withdrew her name from consideration.
Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott praised Lara Trump as “a gifted communicator who knows how to connect to the viewers,” highlighting her “innate understanding of the American public and today’s political landscape.” Lara Trump expressed her enthusiasm about the new role, stating, “I’m thrilled to bring my voice back to FOX News, talk directly with the American people, and highlight what makes this country so great.”
“My View with Lara Trump” aims to focus on “the return of common sense to all corners of American life as the country ushers in a new era of practicality.” The program will feature analysis and interviews with thought leaders, shedding light on headlines driving the national conversation and affecting families across the country.
This development further exemplifies the close relationship between Fox News and the Trump family, with Lara Trump’s new role blurring the lines between media and politics.
