Fans have been wondering where the FOX News mainstay has been, as she has not been consistently appearing on the network in recent weeks.

Perino has been co-anchoring America’s Newsroom with FOX News’ Bill Hemmer since 2021.

She is also a co-host of The Five.

Perino last appeared on each respective broadcast on July 28, a FOX News representative confirmed to The Sun.


While it appears she has taken time off to spend with family, no explanation has been given regarding her absences from the two programs.

Perino has posted multiple photos of her dog, Percy, to social media recently.

Concerned fans have taken to social media wondering where Perino has been.

“Is anyone else missing @DanaPerino? I’m hoping she’s not sick. It’s weird not having Dana on @AmericaNewsroom and @TheFive. Dana come back soon you’re greatly missed. I’m keeping you in my thoughts and prayers Dana & hoping you’re relaxing on the beach with Peter and Percy,” one fan wrote.

“I was thinking the same thing. She’s been gone *a lot* in the last few months,” someone responded.

“I hope you are OK Dana, you seem to be off a lot lately,” another person tweeted.

Julie Banderas had taken on Perino’s co-anchor responsibilities, sharing the news on her Twitter account.

Banderas announced on July 31 that she’d be co-hosting America’s Newsroom all week.

Fans responded to the news welcoming Banderas, but wondering where Perino could be.

“Yay! Love watching. But people are concerned about Dana. Her absence is noticeable,” one person responded.


“Is Dana off AGAIN??? I enjoy Julie but is everything ok with Dana?,” another concerned fan wrote.

The Sun has reached out to both Perino and FOX News for comment.
