Who is Sunny Hostin’s husband Emmanuel?
Sunny Hostin is married to orthopedic surgeon Emmanuel Hostin.
Born in 1953, Emmanuel was raised in New York City, where he studied medicine at John Hopkins University School of medicine and graduated in 1996.
He was a resident at Johns Hopkins Hospital in 2001 and graduated from the University Of Pennsylvania Healthcare System, Fellowship Hospital in 2002.
He’s affiliated with various medical facilities across New York, including Lenox Hill Hospital and Roosevelt Hospital.
What happened to Emmanuel’s parents?
During an episode of The View in January 2021, Hostin opened up about the death of her husband’s parents.
Hostin announced that Emmanuel’s parents died from complications of coronavirus over the holiday break.
“After speaking with [my husband], he felt that from a public health standpoint it was very important for me to share that we are deeply saddened that Manny lost both of his parents over the holiday.
“He lost his father on Dec. 28 and he lost his mother on New Year’s Day, both to COVID,” Hostin said.

“They were both physicians and they were both very careful. They didn’t celebrate Thanksgiving with us because we all decided it wasn’t safe.
“And after a lot of contact tracing, we still don’t know how they contracted this virus. We want to thank the doctors and nurses tht gave them such incredible care.
“They’re doing god’s work letting us FaceTime with Manny’s parents while they were passing away. Despite all of that, they didn’t make it,” she added.
How did Sunny and Emmanuel Hostin meet?
Hostin described meeting her husband for the first time in her 2020 memoir I Am These Truths: A Memoir of Identity, Justice, and Living Between Worlds.
She recalled her dating life before meeting Emmanuel, describing it as “less than satisfactory.”
She was living in Maryland at the time and said she had finished her run one day when she decided to take her mom’s advice and go to church.
“I certainly wasn’t dressed to attend service that day,” Hostin wrote in her memoir.
“My hair was slicked back in a ponytail, and the sweat suit I was wearing was living up to its name.
“… Since Mom believed I’d find my soul mate once I got back into church, I figured I’d drop in, then call to tell her I’d followed her advice and indeed find the man of my dreams. Not!”
Hostin was proven wrong when she saw Emmanuel walking through the doors to the church about five minutes after she had arrived.

“He was gorgeous, decked out in a beautifully tailored suit. … All I could think about was how I could meet this man,” she wrote.
“… I looked ridiculous. I would have to sit and wait. My eyes were glued to his every move.”
She wrote that she had followed him to a bagel shop where she chatted to him in line and said he was horror-struck when she revealed she had been at church.
He was horrified that she had attended church in her running clothes, and said years later she realized that it was “blasphemous” in his mind.
While he didn’t seem interested in her at first, she wrote that his friend talked animatedly to her and when he offered his number suggesting she come to one of the parties he and Emmanuel would throw, she accepted it.
Shortly after, she ran into Emmanuel’s friend at a party and he told her of a party he and Emmanuel would be hosting and invited her to come.
When she showed up at their party, she said she looked very different from when she had first met Emmanuel.
“He didn’t recognize me,” she wrote, “but I said it was nice to see him again. When he asked if we had met before, I told him ‘yes,’ we’d met in church. That’s still our running joke.”
Years later, Hostin says: “[Emmanuel] would tell folks that we’d met in a bagel shop, but I’d let him and everyone else know that we’d met in church.
“That’s where the connection happened. He just hadn’t seen me. … Two years later, we got married.”
The couple now has two children, a son Gabriel, 19, and a daughter Paloma, 15, and they reside in Purchase, New York.
