Jessica Tarlov said she learned her father was dying while trying on her wedding dress, an event she described in an exclusive excerpt from her forthcoming book, according to People.
Tarlov, the Fox News co‑host, recounts the moment in the book excerpt published by People, saying she was in the dress when she got the news that her father was gravely ill.

The excerpt appears in advance of the book’s release; Tarlov has been promoting the memoir and personal essays that include the wedding-day memory, which the People story calls an “exclusive” excerpt.
Coverage of the revelation was also carried by Yahoo Entertainment and other outlets, which summarized the People excerpt and highlighted how the moment shaped her recollection of that period in her life.

The disclosure comes as Tarlov has been in the news around her media work and projects; earlier coverage has noted her role as a rotating co-host on Fox News’ The Five and recent promotions tied to her book tour.
Readers looking for more on Tarlov’s book can find a related site article announcing the release schedule and publicity around the memoir in the site’s coverage of her new book.
“I wrote a book! It comes out on September 15th!” Tarlov wrote on Instagram as she announced the project, a date cited in promotional coverage and in reporting about the excerpt.
