Lara hosted Kelly on her own show, "The Right View," in March, where the two bonded over the political landscape of the world and women's role in politics overall.

During that appearance, Megyn explained how the president converted her from one of his biggest critics to one of his "number one fans" by the 2024 presidential election by "just being who he is."

"I love that, and I love how honest you are about that," the president’s daughter-in-law gushed. "It takes a very big person to take a step back, to look at a situation and say, 'You know what, maybe I misjudged this.'"

Megyn Kelly endorsed Donald Trump in November 2024.

Megyn previously confronted the GOP leader back when he was running for president in 2016, asking tough questions during a primary debate on Fox. It kicked off a feud that lasted years and led to Donald calling her "nasty" and "unprofessional."

In 2024, after leaving Fox News and starting her own journalistic endeavors, the former Fox News host joined Donald on the campaign trail and eventually endorsed him for president, going as far as to call him a "protector of women."

She was previously named on Time’s influential people list in 2014. In that tribute, her former co-worker Brit Hume praised her and struck a more sober tone than Lara's. At the time, he said Megyn had “great looks, strong voice, authoritative yet cheerful presence and obvious intelligence.”
