Harris Faulkner and Tony Berlin’s lasting love story: How their marriage keeps thriving after 20 years

Fox News star Harris Faulkner has built a career on strength and resilience, and it’s those same traits that define her marriage to Tony Berlin.

A Love Story That Started as Rivalry

Harris Faulkner and Tony Berlin’s relationship didn’t begin with fireworks — it began with competition!
Both were rising stars in journalism when they met in Minneapolis, working for rival TV stations. Faulkner was an anchor at ABC affiliate KSTP, while Berlin worked for the CBS station across town.

It wasn’t exactly love at first sight. In fact, when Berlin first showed up at a birthday party with a date, Faulkner admitted she was less than impressed.

“In my mind, he was fired,” she joked years later.

Still, they became fast friends. Six months later, Berlin asked Faulkner out, and this time, sparks flew.
Within a year, Berlin proposed by beautiful Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota, on what Faulkner fondly recalls was the warmest day of the summer.

The couple married in Arizona in 2003, and the rest is history.

Balancing Faith, Family, and Careers

One of the most remarkable aspects of Faulkner and Berlin’s relationship is how they’ve embraced their differences, especially when it comes to faith.

Faulkner is a proud Christian Baptist; Berlin is Jewish.
Instead of letting it divide them, they chose to blend their traditions and raise their two daughters, Bella and Danika, in a home rich in both Christian and Jewish values.

“We share every meal. We share a prayer,” Faulkner explained. “Our faiths have more in common than people realize.”
