Tony Dokoupil became the new face of CBS Evening News after his former co-hosts, Maurice DuBois and John Dickerson, unexpectedly left the program in December 2025. Best known as a co-host of CBS Mornings, Tony’s new on-screen role drew attention amid internal changes at Paramount-Skydance. However, for Tony, family comes first, and he prioritizes his wife, Katie Tur, over work.

Below, you will learn everything we know about Tony’s wife, Katie, and his previous marriage.

Like Tony, Katie is also a successful journalist, working as a storm chaser for The Weather Channel and a reporter for NBC.

The couple met in the makeup room while working at MSNBC in 2015, and Katie made the first move by emailing Tony. They married in 2017 and later became parents.

Despite working for competing news organizations, Tony and Katie have maintained their love. After Tony took on his new role at CBS Evening News, Katie congratulated her husband on the air during MS NOW in December 2025.

«Ten years ago, I met a guy who lived in a studio full of cockroaches, and I fell in love with him», - Katie enthusiastically shared. «I bought low on him back then. Today, his stock has hit a new high. I am so proud of my husband. I think there’s no one better for this job».

Tony and Katie are raising two children: Teddy and daughter Eloise.

Before falling in love with Katie, Tony was married to his ex-wife, Danielle Haas. She filed for divorce in 2015 and now lives a private life in Israel. Neither of them has ever disclosed the reasons for their separation.

Tony and Danielle have two children, who live in Israel, something the former co-host of CBS Mornings has publicly spoken about for many years.

«It's tough. They live there with their mother, my ex-wife. They are safe», - Tony said in December 2023 amid the war between Israel and Hamas. «But as a father, I think people can understand that if someone, anyone, is firing rockets in the direction of your children, not caring whether they hit or not, you feel that»
