The Untold Truth About Greg Gutfeld’s Wife and Their Relationship

Spread the love

Greg Gutfeld knew from the moment he met Elena Moussa that she was different. “I met her and I go, ‘Oh, that’s my wife.’ I just knew it,” he revealed on the Club Random Podcast in 2023. But knowing it and making it happen were two different things.

Greg was working as the editor-in-chief of Maxim U.K., and Elena was a photo editor for Maxim Russia. They first crossed paths at a work event in Portugal, where Greg spent three days trying to get her attention. “She was pretty cold to me at first,” he later admitted. But persistence paid off, and after months of dating, they tied the knot in a civil ceremony in New York City in December 2004.

A Love Story That Started With a Chase

When Greg Gutfeld first met Elena Moussa in 2004, he had no doubt in his mind—she was the one. But convincing her? That took some work.

Greg was working as the editor-in-chief of Maxim U.K., and Elena was a photo editor for Maxim Russia. They first crossed paths at a work event in Portugal, where Greg spent three days trying to get her attention. “She was pretty cold to me at first,” he later admitted. But persistence paid off, and after months of dating, they tied the knot in a civil ceremony in New York City in December 2004.

Who Is Elena Moussa?

Unlike Greg, whose career has been built on being in the public eye, Elena has carved out her own path in the world of fashion. Born in Russia on May 4, 1982, she later moved to London, where she pursued modeling before transitioning into the fashion industry. Her work as a stylist and photo editor led her to high-profile magazines such as L’Officiel and Venice Magazine.

In 2015, she took her career to the next level by enrolling at the prestigious Parsons School of Design in New York. She has since built a name for herself as a creative director, stylist, and entrepreneur, frequently showcasing her work on social media.

A Marriage Built on Privacy and Humor

Despite being in the public sphere, Greg and Elena have chosen to keep their marriage mostly private. While Greg often jokes about his personal life on his late-night talk show, their relationship is rarely put on full display. Elena, too, keeps her Instagram focused on her work rather than her personal life, having shared only one photo of Greg over the years.

Yet, when they do let the public in, it’s clear their relationship is built on mutual respect and humor. One of Greg’s rare social media posts about Elena came in 2021 when he shared a black-and-white photo of her as they celebrated the launch of his late-night show, Gutfeld!.

Life Together: From London to New York

Shortly after getting married, the couple moved to London, but when Greg’s contract at Maxim ended in 2006, they relocated to New York City. While Greg focused on his career in television, Elena expanded her presence in the fashion industry, launching her own business, the Moussa Project, in 2011.

One of the most emotional moments in their marriage came in early 2022, when Elena’s mother was stranded in Ukraine following Russia’s invasion. With the help of Greg’s Fox News colleagues, she was able to escape to Poland and reunite with her daughter in the U.S. Greg shared the emotional moment on The Five, giving viewers a rare glimpse into their personal lives.

A New Chapter: Parenthood at 50+

After nearly two decades of marriage, Greg and Elena surprised fans in late 2024 when they announced the birth of their first child, Mira. Greg’s co-host Dana Perino shared the news on The Five, reading his statement: “It’s with great joy that my wife Elena and I have welcomed a baby girl into the world. Mira is healthy with a real set of lungs. We’re teaching her three languages, and she’s already asking if Jesse [Watters] wears a wig.”

It was a rare personal moment from the famously private couple, but it revealed the excitement and humor that has defined their relationship from the start. As Greg steps into fatherhood, one thing is clear—life with Elena has never been predictable, and that’s exactly the way he likes it.
