Fox News star Greg Gutfeld revealed on the air that his mother-in-law is stranded in Ukraine as the embattled country is invaded by Russia.
Gutfeld, a co-host of The Five, told his colleagues on Wednesday that the mother of his wife is currently in a hotel in Lviv, a town in western Ukraine that lies about 43 miles from the border with Poland.
During a segment with on-site reporter Lucas Tomlinson, Gutfeld, who was broadcasting from the network’s Manhattan studios, told him: “Well thank you Lucas, you’re in Lviv, so is my mother in law.”
He added: “I think she’s at your hotel. If you run into her giver her my best. Give everybody there my best.”
To which Tomlinson replied: “She’s across the street.”
‘You’re doing great work, thank you,” Gutfeld told Tomlinson. He then went on to thank his colleagues for helping get his mother-in-law to safety.

Gutfeld also credited Fox News war correspondent Trey Yingst as well as Steve Harrigan, the network’s former Moscow-based correspondent, and Scott Wilder, FNC’s vice president of field and production operations, for their assistance.
Lviv is a city where many Ukrainians from other parts of the country have sought shelter after their towns were targeted with bombs by the Russian military.

Luckily that does seem to be the safest part of the country. Prayers for his mother in law.
It’s good he’s got a wife. Sometimes I wonder.
Wonder about what? He’s been married 17-18 years.
You wonder?
That's what his wife said to me:)
Why didn’t she leave weeks ago when warned?
Beat me by two seconds!
I watch every episode of Gutfeld. He’s hilarious but makes a LOT of gay innuendo jokes. He also has many gays as guests.
Even he acts like he’s questionable.
She is old and stubborn.
My wife’s family comes from South Poland. They drove me nuts with their stubbornness. I am sure its no better in Northern Ukraine.
My mother-in-law drove my new Cadillac off a cliff.
I had mixed emotions.
He’s a comedian with a really quirky sense of humor. Every once in awhile you get a brief flash of his life and it’s obvious he adores his wife.....he just really doesn’t want you to notice
Biden admin would characterize this like they did the (forgotten) American Citizens in Afghanistan.
“Perhaps she doesn’t want to leave.”
Good for Greg Gutfeld - the more we know him - the more we like him. Odd for a guy who's made his way by NOT being warm and cuddly... to say the least. Prayers for his family and loved ones.
I understand but…expect no tears to be jerked by this story.
And also highly intelligent.
Watching the lib of the day try to match intellectual swords with Gutfeld on The Five is cringe worthy.
Couple weeks ago he had steam coming out of Jerry rivers ears....and it only took one sentence to do it.
Priceless.
“Why didn’t she leave weeks ago when warned?”
Because a lot of people were saying Russia was not going to invade, this is overhyped by the US government.
I was never a fan of his. He was a never Trumper in 2016 also.
