Fox News host Jesse Watters and his young wife, Emma, looked picture-perfect in a romantic photo recently shared on social media — but eagle-eyed fans quickly noticed that something wasn’t quite right.

The couple appeared all smiles, wrapped in each other’s arms, seemingly unfazed by public scrutiny. But within hours, the comments section lit up with theories and observations: from awkward body language to a mysterious edit in the background, fans couldn’t help but speculate.

“Something feels off,” one user commented. Another wrote, “They look happy… but is it real?” The photo, intended to project harmony, may have revealed more than Jesse bargained for.

Jesse and Emma Watters gave their followers an insight into their weekend via a slew of loved-up snaps.

On Sunday, the 32-year-old mom of two took to her Instagram to share a romantic snap of herself posing next to her Fox News anchor husband, who is 14 years her senior, as they attended a wedding together.

Emma, who welcomed son Jesse in 2021 and daughter Georgina in 2023 with her husband, smouldered for the camera as she wowed in a stunning cobalt blue floor-length dress with a voluptuous skirt and intricate pattern. Her brunette tresses were styled into a loosely curled half-up-half-down look that flowed effortlessly around her shoulders.

To complete her look, Emma accessorized with a statement pendant necklace and matching earrings that complemented her look perfectly.

Proudly cuddled up next to her was Jesse, 42, who looked dapper in a pair of black suit pants, a grey blazer, and a crisp button-up shirt.

Emma and Jesse, who tied the knot in 2019, looked in high spirits in the second slide as they gazed into each other’s eyes and laughed for a raw, candid shot. “Best wedding date,” Emma captioned the sweet pics.

The comment section was filled with compliments from many of Emma’s 87.6k fans, like one user who penned: “WOW beautiful dress Emma! You look nice too Jesse!”

A second person gushed: “Such a beautiful couple. The way you two look at each other is so touching,” as another seconded: “Oh you two! Always stunning and elegant. Love your dress.”

Meanwhile, some fans pointed out something about Jesse’s ensemble. “No white pants, Jessie?” one fan asked, which was echoed by another who wrote: “No white jeans, Jesse!”

The fans were seemingly poking fun at Jesse’s style choice after he boldly claimed he looks “really good” in the controversial clothing item during a The Five broadcast last month.

During the show his co-star Harold Ford Jr. turned to ask Jesse if he wore white jeans, to which he replied: ” I wear white jeans,” adding: “Probably the thing that looks best on me.”

Jesse continued to sing his own praises, declaring: “When I have my white jeans on, I look really good, like really good,” causing one of his co-hosts to click her tongue in exasperation.

It comes after fans noticed something off about Jesse’s hair in a post shared by Emma last week when they attended the wedding of Judge Jeanine Pirro’s son.

One eagle-eyed fan pointed out: “Jesse’s hair looks…different,” as another follower agreed, writing: “I second that.” A third person chimed in: “Third! On the fluffy side [laughing face emojis],” which was backed up a fourth joining in on the Jesse hair slander, saying: “What’s Jesse‘s hair doing?”
