  • Full name: Michael Dmitri Ingraham
  • Gender: Male
  • Date of birth: 1 June 2008
  • Age: 17 years old (as of 2025)
  • Place of birth: Russia

The second adopted child of The Ingraham Angle host is Michael Dmitri Ingraham. He was born on 1 June 2008 in Russia, and his age as of 2025 is 17. His zodiac sign is Gemini. Michael was one year old when Laura adopted him from Russia.

Michael’s adoption process was challenging due to the strained diplomatic relationship between the United States and Russia. Despite the hurdles, the media personality ensured that the adoption was successful.

In an exclusive interview with The Wrap, she spoke about the complicated adoption process caused by the fractured relationship between the two countries, saying:

Adoption, first and foremost, needs to be about the children. What’s best for them? Children should never be used as ‘bargaining chips’ by one nation against another. They’re not commodities. This should never be about politics. Preventing the adoption of a child of any age into a loving, safe home is selfish and cruel.
