Fox News host Sean Hannity is setting the record straight about his health.
“Thanks to everyone who has checked in. I’ve already addressed this several times on my radio show, but while training, I developed a painful pinched nerve in my neck,” Hannity, 64, shared via X on Wednesday, June 24. “My doctor put me on prednisone to reduce the inflammation, and while it’s helping, it led to laryngitis and some puffiness, which is normal for this medication.”
The best-selling author assured fans that he is “fine” and “recovering well.”
“Apparently a few weeks of prednisone has generated more social media commentary than 30 years of ratings success,” he continued. “I appreciate all the concern and well wishes — including from members of the left-wing media. Sorry to disappoint them, but a pinched nerve, a raspy voice and a puffy face aren’t taking me out anytime soon.”
Clips and stills of Hannity went viral via social media on Tuesday, June 23, after the primetime host appeared on Fox News to reveal the outcomes of key primary elections in various states.
Hannity’s appearance even grabbed the attention of The Daily Show‘s Josh Johnson.
“I have never seen white cheeks that big that hadn’t been rapped about,” Johnson, 36, joked during Tuesday’s monologue. “I’m not trying to make fun of his looks or anything, but I mean, is he auditioning for a new Chipmunks movie, where Alvin eats Simon and Theodore? I bet you squirrels look at Hannity like, how my nuts taste?”
Before speaking out via X, Hannity addressed health concerns on his radio show.
“I actually went to a doctor,” he explained. “What he said is I had a bad sinus infection, which led to laryngitis, and I didn’t wanna take this crappy medicine called prednisone, and so he just said to ride it out, don’t worry about it, you’re not hurting your vocal cords at all.”
Fox News host Sean Hannity is explaining his decision to leave the Catholic church long before President Donald Trump criticized Pope Leo XIV. “As of today, I no longer consider myself a Catholic. I am a Christian,” Hannity, 64, said on the Thursday, April 16, episode of his primetime show Hannity. “I left the Catholic […]
Hannity joined the network in 1996 and achieved the title of the longest-running current primetime host in cable news in television history. He also hosts the “Hang Out With Sean Hannity” podcast, which premiered on YouTube in March.
In his personal life, Hannity is engaged to fellow Fox News host Ainsley Earhardt, after a romantic proposal in December 2025.
“He’s just an amazing, generous, kind, forgiving, loving man who has embraced my child, a 10-year-old,” Earhardt, 49, exclusively told Us Weekly earlier this month. “He has children in their 20s, and he’s just wonderful. … He would give anybody the shirt off his back. Ask anybody at Fox.”
