“Cleo hasn’t even seen Home Alone…having a baby sister must just have her in the ‘oh no!’ mood!” Tarlov explained as her older daughter had both hands on her cheeks in the classic Home Alone face.
“We’re thrilled to add Teddy to the crew. [I] will be on maternity leave for [the] next few months so to the haters and the losers, enjoy the break! I know I will with my girls.”
Tarlov and her husband Brian McKenna sat on a bed smiling happily with their brand-new addition to the family.
Dana Perino, co-host of The Five, shared Tarlov’s exciting news with fans, saying, “Time now for ‘One More Thing.’ Breaking news from The Five. Jessica Tarlov and her wonderful husband Brian had a new baby. It is a baby girl. Teddy Tarlov McKenna…Thursday, April 11th. 8 pounds, 4 ounces, 21 inches long.”
Images of the sweet new sisters and family flashed across the screen as Perino spoke.
“She met her big sister Cleo and they are having a wonderful time. These are such beautiful pictures… I think it’s so great. Congratulations to you. Enjoy your time with your baby. We can’t wait to meet her and then to have you back.”
The new mother of two recently joked that her co-host Jesse Watters offered to deliver her baby, saying,” First and foremost, I can sit with the people that I work with because they’re really good people. And we enjoy each other.”
“And we’re there to do a job but also have friendships. I mean, Jesse has offered to deliver the baby, and I’m trying to avoid that.”
‘A HUGE HONOR’
In an earlier interview, the co-host discussed the connection between the popular show and important life moments like childbirth, recalling the on-air baby shower her co-hosts threw her.
“Those aren’t Joe Biden voters suddenly. I’m not naïve enough to think of that. But that’s why this job is so fun,” she said.
“I would never know Dolores from Las Vegas, who watches ‘The Five’ every day and was moved to spend her time knitting this blanket for my to-be child, without speaking to people who don’t see the world the way that I do. And to be part of their daily life like that is a huge honor.”
BABY ANNOUNCEMENT
Tarlov shared that she was pregnant while on The Five in January.
She was asked, “Jessica, you’re flying to Iowa, are you prepared to ask for your flight seat to be changed for your condition.”
“My condition, yes, my very pregnant chonky condition,” Tarlov said.
The other hosts were shocked saying, “Hey, wait!”
“I’m pregnant!” Tarlov shouted.

They proceeded to ask her if she told her older daughter Cleo about her new sibling.
“I tried, mostly she’s in that like kind of terrible twos, a little violent stage,” she responded.
“And I’m like you’re punching your sister, and she doesn’t really seem to care.”
Comically, Tarlov also added that her husband is concerned about having so many girls in the house.
“Brian is a little bit concerned about the level of estrogen that is about to be in the household,” Tarlov remarked.
The couple welcomed their first daughter in December 2021.
