Unlike Ben, his wife, Dr. Mor Shapiro, doesn't crave the spotlight and enjoys working behind the curtains. Mor - an Israeli by nationality - is a Resident Physician at the Kaiser Foundation Hospital located in Woodland Hills, California.
The unlikely couple - Ben and Mor - have been together for over a decade. They dated for years before finally stepping up in their relationship by getting engaged in 2007.

A wedding soon followed as the partners got married under Jewish traditions on 8 July 2008, a year after their engagement. The wedding took place in Acre, Israel, and was attended by family members of both the bride and groom.
Post the wedding, the pair settled back to their normal lives and waited nearly six years to start a family. Ben and his wife eventually became parents in January 2014 as they welcomed their baby girl named Leeya Eliana.
However, it was not easy bringing the child into the world. The labor reportedly lasted for about 26 hours, during which the political commentator remained by his wife's side to support and comfort her.
Six days after the birth of his child, Ben wrote an open letter to his daughter, thanking Leeya, for becoming a part of his life and also expressed his unconditional love towards her.
Sadly, the troubles were far from over for the Shapiro family as Leeya was diagnosed with atrial septal defect (ASD), for which she had to undergo open-heart surgery in 2014.
Now, it seems like she has recovered from her illness and is growing up to be a beautiful girl. For Ben and Mor, the husband-wife duo also seems to be enjoying their married life. Hopefully, the pair will welcome more kids in the future as they expand their family.

Views On Gay And Transgender Issue
While Ben is not against the gay and transgender community, he is a protestor of the minority group demanding separate gender for themselves. The political activist is a supporter of the traditional views on gender (i.e., male, female, and others); however, he is a protestor of the community asking for over 70 genders to be legally applicable.
Further, he has refused to call the transgender females as "women," and Caitlyn Jenner has been his primary target. Ben insists on calling Caitlyn by her former male name, Bruce Jenner. He even refused to call her a hero, insisting that a simple sex-change surgery was nothing heroic.
Although there are several people who revolt his views on the transgender issue, many have come forward to support him for speaking his mind.
