“Friends, I’ll be rejoining the Big Weekend Show tonight. 2025 was a heartbreaking and tragic year for our family,” she wrote on X Saturday.

Vogel, 56, has served as the Los Angeles correspondent for Fox News since 2001.

In the past year, Vogel shared that she lost her husband of 13 years and has to rebuild her life following the devastating California wildfires.

“After surviving the Palisades Fire in January, we then lost my beloved husband to complications of pancreatic cancer in October,” she wrote.

“It has been the hardest of times for our family. I’ve taken several months off to deal with the unimaginable loss and by the grace of God we are moving forward one day at a time.”

The host shared she plans to go back to work to gain a “sense of normalcy.”

“Part of the healing journey includes slowly getting back to work to help bring a sense of normalcy and so that’s what I’m now doing,” she shared.

“We kept this very quiet but thank you to friends and family for your all your support.

“I’m looking forward to a great show tonight with the most lovely cast. Thanks to all the loyal fans who always tune in and we’ll see you tonight. God Bless you all.”

The personal life update prompted hundreds of fans to share their sympathies and excitement about her return.

“I am so sorry for your loss,” one woman commented.

“I lost my husband in 2021. A friend gave me a daily meditation book, ‘Healing After Loss.’ I have sent it to at least 20 friends who have suffered loss. I would send it to you, but it may seem intrusive, but I highly recommend it.”

Vogel replied to the fan: “I will buy it. Thank you so much for the recommendation Kathleen.”

“So many of us who watch and appreciate your talent as a news person are wrapping our arms around you and your family,” one fan commented.

“I can only imagine how proud your husband was of you.”

Vogel thanked the fan for the kind words: “Thank you, Margaret. Such a kind thing to say.”

The correspondent returned to the network on January 31.
