Lots of good news for Fox News Channel’s Megyn Kelly this summer as she’ll get a bump to primetime after she returns from maternity leave.  (Speaking of bumps, she’s expecting baby No. 3 later this summer.)

Kelly is joined by colleagues Bret Baier, Shepard Smith, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and Greta Van Susteren in inking long-term contracts with the network, Fox announced Tuesday. A new primetime schedule will be released at a later date. Kelly currently works the 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. shift, anchoring “America Live,” and has been with Fox since 2004.
