Who Is Tony Dokoupil First Wife, Katy Tur?

Tony Dokoupil, a correspondent for CBS News, was married to his first wife, who now lives in Tal Aviv. He has two children with his first wife.

Katy Tur is the second wife of the American broadcast journalist. The couple married on October 27, 2017, in Utah. He has kept his first wife's identity hidden from the public eye and posts 'couple goals' on Instagram with his current wife, Katy.

He is an extremely supportive husband to Katy, as shown in CBS Mornings while discussing her new memoir, Rough Draft.

In recalling her childhood, the MSNBC anchor revealed that her father was once abusive to the family. Katy opened up to her husband about how isolating the experience was for her.

She said, "I always kind of felt like a bit of a fraud like I didn't belong."

"I didn't know how to broach it with you," she admitted, acknowledging her hesitation to share her story with Tony.

Katy's father, who changed her name from Bob to Zoey after undergoing surgery, told CBS News: "I could certainly be intimidating."

"And, you know, I apologize if the kids thought I was intimidating. I tried my hardest." She admitted that she is still working on repairing her relationship with her father.

Tony Dokoupil Has Four Children In Total 

Tony Dokoupil and Katy Tur are blessed with a three-year-old son, Teddy, and a one-year-old daughter, Eloise. He also has two older children, ages 12 and ten, whom he shares with his ex-wife in Tel Aviv.

During the summer vacation, he sees his older children. 

They spend the school year in Tel Aviv and then spend the summer with Tony for eight to ten weeks during the school holidays. 

Tony believes having a double and triple vision is the best part of being a father. On the one hand, "it allows you to look into your past and see your parents in a new light and see what they went through."

Tony believes he has become a more relaxed parent to his younger children.

When the second round of kids arrived, he was relieved and delighted to discover that changing diapers and feeding a bottle was as easy as riding a bicycle. But he needed advice because he considered him far from a perfect parent.

We can follow him on Instagram to witness how much of a fun dad he is to his children.
