Who is Lorraine Martin Smothers?
Lorraine Martin Smothers is the wife of former Fox News journalist Chris Wallace.
On Sunday, December 12, 2021, Wallace announced he was leaving Fox to host a CNN+ weekday show.
Prior to leaving, he had been with the network since 2005.
“After 18 years – this is my final ‘Fox News Sunday.’ It is the last time, and I say this with real sadness, we will meet like this,” Wallace said.
“I am thrilled to join CNN+,” he added in a statement at the time.
“After decades in broadcast and cable news, I am excited to explore the world of streaming. I look forward to the new freedom and flexibility streaming affords in interviewing major figures across the news landscape – and finding new ways to tell stories.”
Smothers is a published author and chef who has written three cookbooks, including the Amazon best-seller Mrs. Sunday’s Soups.
Her first soup-inspired cookbook, published in 2010, came as a result of her husband’s busy schedule clashing with her son’s sports practice.
She said: “I was faced with a dilemma: how to feed both of my guys in a timely and nourishing manner, and how to bring our family together, even for a short time.
“The answer was soup… and I served a different one each week.”
