During her studies, she served as the Marketing Director for the university’s Student Association.

Emma’s professional career began officially in February 2015, when she joined the crew of Fox News, and was appointed as a personal assistant of the 19 Emmy Award-winning American television personality John Stossel, who at that time hosted his own eponymous weekly news show on Fox Business. Prior to the cancelation of the show in December 2016, DiGiovine also served as its production assistant. The next step in her professional career occurred in the early 2017 when she was promoted to a position of the associate producer of Jesse Watters’ weekly show “Watters’ World”, which she maintains as of 2020.

Into the limelight young Emma came in October 2017, when it was discovered that she’d had an affair with Watters while he was still married to Noelle Inguagiato Watters, with whom he has twin daughters. After Noelle filed for divorce, Jesse disclosed the nature of his relationship with Emma to their superiors.
Although she was then shifted to work on another Fox show – “The Ingraham Angle” – they continued dating and later revealed their romantic connection to the world. After 11 months of a messy divorce, Jesse and Noelle settled their split, sharing custody of their girls. On the 25th August 2019 he popped the question and became engaged to DiGiovine.

In June 2014, Jesse began contributing to and occasionally co-hosting the Fox News’ talk show “Outnumbered”, while since November 2015 he’s hosted his own “Watters’ World”. It was initially a man-on-the-street part of the “The O’Reilly Factor”, steadily growing to become a show on its own, which now airs weekly on Fox News Channel. Since April 2017, he also serves as a co-host of the panel talk show “The Five”.
Described as an ‘ambush journalist’, Jesse faced severe criticism on several occasions in the past for a vast number of inaccurate and often provocative claims.
In October 2016 he was interviewing people in NYC’s Chinatown, occasionally asking them ‘if they knew karate, if he should bow before he greets them, or if their watches were stolen’ – this whole story was characterized as vile and racist towards Asians. After Ivanka Trump appeared in April 2017, and spoke about female entrepreneurship at the G20 Summit in Hamburg, Germany, during his appearance on “The Five” Watters ‘parodied holding the microphone as a phallic symbol’ which was later condemned as lewd. “Watters’ World” was cancelled in 2022, while he’s carried on hosting “The Five”.
Net Worth
Sources claim that, as of mid-2024, Emma DiGiovine’s wealth revolves around $500,000, acquired through her producing career, and Jesse’s about $5 million.
