In a move that has sparked quiet curiosity within media and political circles, Fox News anchor Dana Perino is reportedly preparing for an extended work-related trip to Asia — and is actively seeking a long-term caregiver and house manager to support her husband, Peter McMahon, during her absence.
Multiple sources close to the couple have confirmed that Perino, who is known for balancing high-profile media work with a fiercely private home life, has already begun interviewing candidates for the highly selective position.
“She’s not just looking for a housekeeper,” one insider revealed. “This is about finding someone she can trust — someone who can manage household routines, keep Peter company, and ensure that everything runs smoothly while she’s away for several months.”
The reason? A confidential but “deeply meaningful” professional project set to take Dana across multiple countries in Asia — possibly involving media training, women’s leadership development, or diplomatic consulting. While details remain tightly guarded, sources describe it as a “passion-driven assignment that she’s been quietly planning for over a year.”
Though McMahon is reportedly in good health, friends say Dana wants to ensure he is well-supported at home while she is abroad, especially given the duration of the upcoming project.
“She’s being incredibly thoughtful,” the source continued. “This isn’t a last-minute decision. It reflects how seriously she takes both her work and her marriage.”
Applicants for the position are being vetted through a private agency and must reportedly meet a strict list of criteria, including experience with senior care, discretion, and long-term availability.
While Perino has made no public announcement yet, colleagues say a formal update may be shared on-air or via social media in the coming weeks.
For now, all signs point to a bold new chapter for Dana Perino — one that stretches far beyond the Fox News studio, with global impact… and a carefully guarded home front.
