Fox News Host Bill O’Reilly will lose residential custody of his children following a New York appeals court ruling last week.

The The Nassau County Supreme Court ruling upheld a lower-court decision that the kids, ages 13 and 17, should live with the Fox News Channel host’s ex-wife, Maureen McPhilmy, according to court documents.

O’Reilly and McPhilmy divorced in 2011 and have been battling for custody ever since. The lengthy ruling was finally rendered on Feb. 24.

The judgment awards full-time custody to McPhilmy, while granting O’Reilly a share of legal custody, allowing him equal say in material matters concerning the children.
