FOX News anchor Julie Banderas has flipped the finger at the upcoming romantic holiday, announcing her divorce live on the air during a Valentine’s Day discussion.
Appearing as a panelist on the late-night comedy show Gutfeld!, Banderas ripped the upcoming day as a “stupid, Hallmark holiday.”

“F**k Valentine’s Day,” Banderas fumed. “It is stupid, even when I was married, I didn’t get s**t!”
She went on to confirm her impending split from her husband, Andrew Sansone – a financial advisor at Allied Wealth Partners and founding president of both Old Rock Media and Big Apple Channel, his LinkedIn page states.
“Well, I am going to get a divorce. I am going to say it right here for the first time,” she said to some applause.
“Thank you, everyone. Congratulations are in order! … That is breaking news!”
Banderas went on to brand the day a “Hallmark holiday,” saying couples don’t need one day to show their love towards each other.
The Fox News Channel anchor advised men not to get their girlfriends flowers in a box for Valentine’s Day, saying: “No, flowers in a box, I don’t want anything that’s alive in a box. If you come to me in a box, you better be dead.”
Social media users quickly jumped in on Banderas’ take, with one even chiming in with an odd marriage opinion.
“They say your not [sic] an adult until you have been divorced once. Good luck going forward, in the end you’ll wish you had done it sooner,” one person tweeted to the news anchor.
Banderas seemingly agreed with the commenter, replying: “Yeah, like 13 years ago.”
On Friday morning, Banderas shared a screenshot of a text she received from a friend after her viral on-air announcement, tweeting: “I love my friends lol.”
The friend texted Banderas, “Hey Jules! not sure what I got you for a wedding gift, but I’d like it back now,” to which she responded: “Lolololol.”
“Wait – no lols – check the gift registry and gimme it back,” the friend replied.
Banderas and Sansone married in August 2009 and have three children together – Addison, Melissa, and Avery.
