Once a rising star at Fox News and a bold voice in conservative commentary, Andrea Tantaros seemed destined for a long, high-profile career in television.
But after a headline-making lawsuit and an abrupt disappearance from the spotlight, fans are still asking: where is Andrea Tantaros now?
The Fox News Powerhouse
Andrea Tantaros joined Fox News in April 2010. She quickly stood out for her sharp takes, confident presence, and no-nonsense style. Viewers took notice. And by 2011, she was a founding co-host of The Five, one of the network’s breakout panel shows that soared in the ratings.
In 2014, she made the move to Outnumbered, joining a panel of female anchors and rotating male guests in daytime discussions of current events. Her unapologetic conservative commentary, mixed with a bold, independent streak, made her a standout among Fox’s high-profile personalities.

“I believe in being a conservative,” she once said, “but you also need to maintain your independent streak.” It was this blend of sharp politics and off-script candor that gave her staying power — until everything changed.
The Book That Stirred the Pot
In 2016, Tantaros added author to her résumé with the release of Tied Up in Knots: How Getting What We Wanted Made Women Miserable. The book offered a provocative critique of modern feminism. Tantaros argued that the pursuit of equality had left many women unfulfilled and disconnected from traditional values.
She argued that many women had adopted “male” traits in the workplace and in relationships — to their own detriment. The book received mixed reviews: praised by some for its bravery, criticized by others for oversimplifying gender dynamics.
Controversy deepened when Michael Krechmer, under the pseudonym Michael Malice, alleged he was the ghostwriter and sued Tantaros over compensation. Tantaros denied the claims, standing by her authorship — but the public dispute added fuel to an already polarizing narrative.
The Lawsuit That Changed Everything
In August 2016, Tantaros filed a bombshell lawsuit against Fox News, alleging sexual harassment by then-CEO Roger Ailes and other senior executives. She claimed that after speaking up, Fox News retaliated. First, she was demoted from The Five. Then, she was sidelined from programming. By April 2016, she was off the air entirely.
