Fox News host Pete Hegseth did a shocking revelation on Sunday that he has not washed his hands for 10 years because "germs are not a real thing".

The shocking revelation came after Fox & Friends co-host Jedediah Bila told how Hegseth had been eating leftover pizza that had been sitting around on the set for the last day.  

On Fox and Friends Sunday morning, Hegseth told his co-hosts, Ed Henry and Jedediah Bila, that he didn't believe in the sanitary activity.  "My 2019 resolution is to say things on-air that I say off-air," Hegseth said to his co-hosts. "'I don't think I've washed my hands for 10 years."

Hegseth even took his stand against hand-washing to Twitter. Following a tweet by user @smittymhs's defending the Fox News host, Hegseth retweeted the post, adding "#DontWash."

His comments were met with both support and concern on social media. 

He said he doesn't believe in germs cause he can't see them. Bet he believes in God
