EXCLUSIVE: Jesse Watters and Jessica Tarlov have become known for their fiery spats on Fox News – normally over their conflicting political views, but not all is as it seems

Jesse Watters and Jessica Tarlov could be best pals off screen

It turns out that away from the harsh studio lights over on Fox News’ The Five, Jesse Watters and Jessica Tarlov might be besties … in the world of astrology, anyway.

Democrat Tarlov and avid MAGA supporter Watters are frequent faces on the panel of Fox’s The Five, and they quite often come armed with fierce opinions that result in heated rows over whatever is going on in the world that day.

The duo usually clash over their very conflicting political views, from President Donald Trump and his decisions to controversial topics like ICE deportations, and more. And while their onscreen chemistry is far from friendly, apparently, the same can’t be said away from the cameras.

This isn’t because the pair are acting up for the cameras; rather, if they were actually to give each other a go at a friendship, they could, in fact, hit it off.

Expert astrologer Louise Muir-Sage exclusively explained why this could be the case to the Irish Star. “This is a water-sign duo!” she gushed, referring to Watters, who is born under the star sign of Cancer, and Tarlov, who is a Pisces.

“It is likely you will find emotions, intuition, and intensity all rolled into one,” Louise continued, before adding, “Cancer and Pisces usually get each other instinctively. This means generally, there is no second-guessing of the other person. They share that emotional language where you don’t have to explain how you feel, the other just knows. I think this is beautiful.”

She went on to claim, “Off-camera, this could make them surprisingly good friends. Knowing this, it may be surprising when people witness the somewhat fiery clashes on air. So let me explain.

“There are two reasons. First, the show sets them up to disagree; it makes good television! It’s their job, to some extent, to lock horns.

“Second, water signs don’t argue lightly. Although you may expect more heat from fire signs, when water signs get into a debate or argument, they put their whole heart into it,” Louise pointed out.

“This is what can cause the on-air debates to feel personal even when it isn’t. Jesse can get defensive (typical of a Cancer sign), and Jessica, as a Pisces, can double down when she feels strongly about something.

“That’s why their spats often look like more than just politics. They are both simply emotionally invested in their views,” the expert went on.

“As for Jessica’s trickier traits. Pisces are usually compassionate and open-minded, but when they’re passionate, they can be dismissive of anything that doesn’t fit their inner conviction and beliefs. That can come across as narrow-minded or argumentative.

“Add in a natural Piscean sensitivity, and it’s easy to see why she might seem combative at times. She probably doesn’t enjoy the conflict itself, but when pushed, she’ll fight her corner hard. Surely that’s not a bad thing?” Louise concluded.
