Meghan McCain and husband Ben Domenech have expanded their family with the arrival of their third child, a baby boy named Ransom. The former View co-host shared the joyful news, noting everyone is happy, healthy, and utterly exhausted. Daughters Liberty and Clover are thrilled about their new baby brother.
Oh, the tea is piping hot from the McCain-Domenech household! On Friday, January 2, 2026, 41-year-old Meghan McCain gave birth to her third child and first son, Ransom McCain Domenech, with husband Ben Domenech, whom she's been married to since 2017. "Everyone is happy, healthy and exhausted," Meghan shared with People. "We’re absolutely over the moon that our baby boy is here."
Big sisters Liberty Sage, 5, and Clover Jade, 2, are over the moon too. "Liberty and Clover are so excited to have a baby brother," Meghan added. "Our family is so blessed." She didn't forget to shout out the pros: "We’re so grateful to the incredible doctors and medical staff who took such wonderful care of all of us."
Meghan spilled on Instagram with adorable post-birth snaps—Ben in a surgical mask, peering at his newborn while Meghan chills in the hospital bed. Another pic zooms in on tiny Ransom, snoozing in a blanket with a knit cap, looking every bit the peaceful prince. 😍
This bundle of joy comes after Meghan announced her pregnancy back in June 2024 in a "weird way," as she put it. She opened up on a podcast with Second Lady Usha Vance about her nerves over adding a third kid—and her first boy. Looks like those jitters melted away faster than ice cream on a hot day. Congrats to the fam—who's ready for the next chapter in this growing squad?
