After being announced as the replacement of - the out-going panelist of the day-time talk show The View - Sara Hines in early September, political commentator Abby Huntsman's profile as one of the most sought-after conservative critics grew by leap and bound.
Given her lineage, the Fox & Friends host had no difficulty coping with the expectation that comes with being a public figure. If all else failed, the former Fox & Friends co-host could ask her family for advice. Her father, to be more specific.
That said, her husband was the first person she would want to talk. After all, the pair had enjoyed eight glorious years by each other's side and know each other the best!

At the time of her birth, Isabel weighed a healthy 5 pounds and 11 ounces. Was there any better way to mark the 7-year-anniversary of married life than with the birth of a first child?
In August of 2018, Abby and Jeff celebrated eight years of being together as a married couple. They had first met when they were both undergraduates at the University of Pennsylvania and would eventually get married in August of 2018.
Today, Jeff is a Principal, Private Equity officer at the investment firm KKK, having worked for McKinsey & Company as a Business Analyst for three long years previously. A Pennsylvania native, he comes from a household full of boys.

And with the birth of their daughter, Isabel, he's going to have his work cut out to adapt to the new surroundings - a house outnumbered by girls. His wife, on the other hand, had no difficulties accustoming herself to their daughter being around since Abby grew up in a reasonably female-dominated household.
Pregnant With Twins; Postpartum Depression & Fat-Shaming Talks
Abby's post-pregnancy bliss, however, would last only for a year.
On 13 January 2019 months, after welcoming daughter Isabel with husband, the esteemed political commentator announced that she was pregnant with twins - a boy and a girl.
A frightened Abby visited a doctor after suffering bouts of fever, only to learn about being pregnant with twins. She recounted the story during a panel discussion on the show The View earlier that month.
Three months after the gender reveal, her The View co-hosts threw a surprise baby show. The likes of Joy Behar, Meghan McCain, Sunny Hostin, Ana Navarro, Chelsea Clinton, and Libby Huntsman attended the on-air bash.

Also in the attendance was Sara Haines. After the celebration, both Abby and Sara spoke on the postpartum depression they faced. Recounting the darker days following the birth of Grace, the former revealed:-
"I remember sitting in the kitchen crying to my husband, I'm not me right now, I don't feel like me, and maybe I need help... "
Besides postpartum depression, Abby also dealt with severe fat-shaming abuse from trolls online. Opening about her experience on The View in Jan 2019, the expecting mother asserted that babies' health should always come first.
Baby Bliss!
On 6th June 2019, Abby and her husband Jeff welcomed their bundles of joy. The View co-host gave birth to twins - son William Jeffery and daughter Ruby Kate - in New York City.
At the time of her birth, baby Ruby weighed five pounds and twelve inches while measuring 19 inches. Also stretching 19 inches, her twin brother William Jeffery weighed five pounds and seven inches.

According to the mom of three, her newborns exhibited contrasting behavior. While Ruby was calm and sweet, William arrived a wide-eyed baby.
For the special "delivery," Abby's dad John Huntsman - US Ambassador to Russia - and mom Mary Kaye flew in from Moscow.
Although excited about having three children, the prospect of welcoming twins didn't sit with the political commentator's husband at first. Admittedly, Jeff fainted when the doctors delivered the news. Conceiving the twins was a total shock to both.
Family: Five Siblings Including Three Biological Sisters
The View co-host has three sisters in total excluding two adopted sisters. Her two brothers, William Huntsman and Jon Huntsman III, make up the remaining two siblings. Both William and Jon are U.S. Naval Academy graduates.
Mary Anne, Abby's younger sister, is a concert pianist whereas the youngest of the three, Liddy, is "a self-proclaimed comedian," and a food blogger. The Huntsman sisters became a subject of GQ, New Yorker, and Buzzfeed articles when their father's unsuccessful 2012 Presidental Election Campaign.
