Fox News anchor Carley Shimkus was left speechless after receiving a heartwarming surprise from her co-host Dana Perino. The touching gesture, which involved a custom portrait of Carley’s baby, Brock, left the new mother deeply moved and full of gratitude.
Taking to Instagram, Carley shared her excitement and appreciation for Dana and her sister, Angie, who played a key role in the thoughtful gift. In the post, she included a picture of herself and Dana, proudly holding up the beautifully crafted portrait of baby Brock.
“Dana surprised me with a painting of Brock, created by her incredibly talented sister, Angie!” Carley wrote. “I am absolutely blown away by Dana’s thoughtfulness and Angie’s artistic skills. Just look at how amazing this painting is!”
The artwork captures a precious moment of baby Brock crawling on a bed, dressed in his pajamas, with his big blue eyes staring sweetly at the viewer. The level of detail and the lifelike quality of the painting made it an instant keepsake for the proud mother.
Carley’s followers quickly flooded the comments with admiration and praise for the heartfelt gift. One fan wrote, “It seems like you have some amazing coworkers!” Another commented, “What a thoughtful and meaningful gift! This will be a cherished memory forever. Angie is truly talented.” A third person added, “That painting is absolutely stunning! It looks just like Brock.”
Even Angie, the artist behind the masterpiece, chimed in on the post, expressing her joy that Carley loved the painting. “Yay! So glad you like it!” she wrote.
Dana Perino, who has been vocal about her love for baby Brock since his arrival, also joined in the celebration. “Brock is our big blue-eyed boy! We love him!” she commented, reinforcing the strong bond she shares with Carley and her family.
Since Brock’s birth on February 3, Dana has continually shown her admiration and support for Carley as she embraces motherhood. She has frequently left affectionate comments on Carley’s social media posts, often referring to Brock as a “miracle baby” and expressing her joy in watching him grow.
In one heartwarming post, Dana even gave Carley the title of “best mama” as she praised her friend’s devotion to her newborn son. Her unwavering support has not gone unnoticed by Carley, who continues to share her gratitude and appreciation for Dana’s kindness.
Last month, Carley shared another milestone in Brock’s life—his baptism, which took place on August 20. She described the event as “the most special day” and expressed her immense gratitude in the caption, writing, “Thank you, Lord, for this baby boy whom we love so much.”
Dana’s thoughtful gift not only highlighted her love for baby Brock but also showcased the deep friendship she shares with Carley. The painting is sure to remain a treasured keepsake, symbolizing their special bond and the incredible support they have for each other.
With such a heartfelt surprise, it’s no wonder Carley was left completely “blown away” by Dana’s generosity and Angie’s artistic talent. This touching gesture is a beautiful reminder of the strong friendships formed behind the scenes at Fox News.
