Ingraham then turns to a daily workout routine, usually a circuit training class at Orangetheory – a boutique fitness chain where memberships start at $129 a month.

As a single mother of three with a primetime slot on Fox News, Laura Ingraham gets asked the same question again and again: How do you manage to balance it all? The 61-year-old’s answer is refreshingly honest: ‘I don’t.’

While viewers of her 7pm show, The Ingraham Angle, may see her – complete with perfectly coiffed hair, a fresh face, and elegant outfits – and assume there is a secret recipe to her success, Ingraham insists there isn’t.

On a normal day, Ingraham wakes at 6am, makes her boys, Nikolai, 14 (left), and Dmitri, 16 (right), breakfast, usually bacon and eggs, sometimes blueberry pancakes, and gets them off to school.

Laura’s 19-year-old daughter, Maria (pictured right), is away at college.

‘I’m not a great sleeper,’ Ingraham admits, ‘but for me, exercise is the absolute key. I’ve always been athletic. Back in high school, I was voted class athlete by my entire class.’

When she’s not working out, Ingraham still remains active, whether that’s through tossing around a football with her boys or racing them in sprints in the yard of their northern Virginia home.

‘For the longest time I could beat them,’ she jokes, ‘but then getting older means learning how to give up things graciously.’

Not that you could tell that she’s getting older: Ingraham – who joined Fox News as a contributor in 2007 and began hosting her own nightly hour in 2017 – still keeps a schedule that many 20-somethings would struggle to keep up with.

After her workouts, she has an 11am call with her Fox production staff to brainstorm ideas ahead of her evening show. Despite a reported salary of over $10 million a year, Ingraham still makes her own lunch.

Then it’s time to start writing for the show. Staffers say she prides herself on writing the heft of her opening monologue and the bulk of the show herself, while an editorial team helps with edits.
