Susan Andrews is hardly never seen in public, which is the primary reason why she is best known as the spouse of news anchor Tucker Carlson. There is not a lot of information available regarding the lives of the couple, although Andrews once narrowly escaped an imminent threat by hiding in her pantry as attackers attempted to enter her home via the front door.
The TV anchor was able to complete her education thanks to assistance provided by her father. Susan Andrews’ husband, Tucker Carlson, also came from less privileged origins. While they were still in school together, he pursued her with a lot of passion, and when the time was right, Carlson asked Andrews for her hand in marriage.
Carlson was a senior in college at the time of the couple’s wedding, which took place in Rhode Island in the early 1990s. They had a wonderful time on their honeymoon in Bermuda, and shortly after that, they started a family of their own. Andrews, who was married to a former co-host of “Fox and Friends Weekend,” stayed at home to raise their four children and devote her life to being a stay-at-home mother.Andrews and Carlson initially became acquainted with one another when Carlson was 14 years old and attending boarding school for the first time. Her father, Reverend George Andrews, served as the headmaster of the institution. All of Carlson’s old classmates had vivid and amusing recollections of him when he was still in school. On the other hand, Andrews recalled him with a warmer feeling as she explained:
“His gait had an air of buoyancy about it. Even even then, he gave off an upbeat and happy vibe, as shown by the fact that he was wearing khaki trousers and a ribbon belt.”
Carlson considered Andrews to be “the prettiest tenth student in America,” and the two of them began dating not long after that. It is said that Andrews’ spouse was a “lackluster” student who had a difficult time getting into college on the basis of his own merit.
Carlson was able to enroll at Trinity College in Hartford because to her father’s intervention and the arrangements he made. Carlson made his proposal to Andrews in the spring of 1991, six months prior to his graduation. He referred to his proposal for marriage as “very 19th century,” which he considered as a “wonderful thing to do” in his eyes.
Susan Andrews gave up her career so that she could be a better wife and mother.
After being married, the couple started a family and now has a daughter named Lillie who is 27 years old. Buckley, 25, Hopie, 23, and Dorothy come in second and third, respectively, behind Lillie. By the end of the 1990s, Andrews had successfully delivered all three of the couple’s children. She had been employed as a teacher at an Episcopal school, but she left that position in order to focus on raising her children.When their children were younger, her husband was also a present father who often read to them when they were little. In this regard, many families have made it a point to educate their children about the value of the Constitution by reading the Bill of Rights on Independence Day. This is a custom that is widely appreciated.
He would let off a firecracker after the recitation of each individual liberty. In order to inculcate a feeling of patriotism in his children, Carlson would fly the American flag in the front yard of the farmhouse in Virginia that they had refurbished in 1906. He believed that it was very essential for his children to value and not take for granted the privileges that they have as citizens.
He conceded that patriotism was “so unfashionable” in today’s culture. Despite this, he was of the opinion that it was perfectly safe since, due to their youth, “they didn’t realize that.” Although the exact year of their youngest daughter’s birth cannot be determined, it most likely took place in the early 2000s. Andrews remarked how impressed she was by her husband’s dedication as a parent, saying:He has such an inventive approach to things.”
Susan Andrews stood by her husband during the stormy times while they were going through a difficult time.
In 2005, Andrews’ husband debuted a program dubbed “Tucker,” but the show’s popularity didn’t persist for very long despite its initial success. Carlson had a spell of depression after the show’s cancellation, during which he fretted about providing for his family and how he would support them financially. Because the program was canceled, he was left without a work, and his family would soon be forced into poverty as a result.The couple had relocated from their previous house in Alexandria, Virginia to Madison, New Jersey; however, they were compelled to relocate once again and now reside with an old friend of Carlson’s, Neil Patel, in Washington, District of Columbia. Throughout the event, Andrews did not leave Carlson’s side at any point.
The congregation that was led by Andrews’s father was a member of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice. Both she and Carlson consider themselves to be part of the Anglican Communion and to adhere to the Episcopal faith. Carlson gave thanks to his wife for helping him grow in his religion and causing him to take it more seriously as a result.
In the year 2018, the family was put through yet another traumatic experience when Andrews was home alone with her family when she heard loud pounding and yelling at the front door. Andrews was getting ready to go for dinner at the time. She was so frightened that she thought there was an intruder in the house, so she hid in the pantry and called the police.It was a blessing that none of their children were at home, but Carlson had to be at work since he was scheduled to go live on Fox News in two hours. After calling the emergency services, Andrews sent her husband many texts to keep him apprised of the situation after she had already called 911. On the other hand, what she believed to be an invasion was really a protest.
Carlson placed a call to Andrews, who informed him that someone had pushed himself against the front door, which resulted in the door being broken. An anti-fascist group named Smash Racism circulated a video of the demonstration, which has since been removed, in which the protestors accused Carlson of inciting hatred. The demonstration attracted roughly 20 people.
The group held the belief that hatred was an ideology that contributed to the deaths of thousands of people and that Carlson was “bringing terror” into their homes via the use of his platform. They used group chants to threaten the anchor of Fox News, letting him know that they knew where he lived and reminding him that he was just as endangered as they were. Both of them were in a dangerous situation.
