Breaking baby news!
MSNBC correspondent Katy Tur and “CBS This Morning” anchor Tony Dokoupil are expecting their second child together, a source close to the couple exclusively revealed to Page Six.
Tur, who anchors “MSNBC Live with Katy Tur,” is currently five-and-a-half months pregnant with a girl, due mid-May.
“Overall, Katy’s feeling good, but a little tired,” the source told us, before adding that the couple is “tossing around names, but nothing definitive yet.”
The girl will join big brother Teddy, who was born April 13, 2019.
Tur, 37, and Dokoupil, 40, have been married since 2017. This will be their second child together, and Dokoupil’s fourth. He has two children from a previous relationship.
When Tur returned to work five months after welcoming Teddy on April 13, 2019, she was outspoken on-air about her harrowing birth experience — and the importance of paid parental leave.
“It is insane that 25% of women go back to work after two weeks — two weeks — and I think it’s insane that 7 out of 10 men go back after 10 days or less,” she said in September 2019. “Not because they want to go back, almost nobody wants to go back to work that soon, because they are forced to go back either because they can’t afford to stay home or they feel societal or professional pressure to prove that they are serious about their job.
“Family leave supports babies, which supports us all.”
