Benedict Martin Paul Mulroney (born March 9, 1976) is a Canadian radio and television host. He is the eldest son of Brian Mulroney, the 18th Prime Minister of Canada.
Best known for his 20-year broadcasting career with the Canadian network CTV, Mulroney began as an entertainment reporter on CTV's former morning show Canada AM in 2001, and co-hosted the entertainment news program etalk from 2002 to 2020, Canadian Idol from 2003 to 2008, and CTV's national morning show Your Morning from 2016 to 2021. Mulroney departed etalk in June 2020. A year later, on September 29, 2021, Mulroney departed both Your Morning and CTV to pursue a producing career.
Mulroney currently hosts The Ben Mulroney Show mornings on 640 Toronto, syndicated nationally on Corus Entertainment's talk radio stations. He returned to television in 2025, hosting the 15th season of The West Block on Global Television Network, during Mercedes Stephenson's parental leave.
Mulroney was born in Montreal, Quebec, and grew up in Ottawa, Ontario. He is the second of four children born to former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and Mila Pivnički Mulroney, who is of Serbian descent.

His older sister, Caroline, is the President of the Treasury Board of Ontario and Minister of Francophone Affairs, and had been an unsuccessful candidate for the 2018 Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership election.

Mulroney attended Lycée Claudel d'Ottawa and the Hotchkiss School, and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree, with a major in history, from Duke University. He subsequently earned a Bachelor of Laws degree from Université Laval. During the Oliphant hearings, it was revealed that all the Mulroney children's university educations were paid from the cash that their father received from Karlheinz Schreiber.
In the late 1990s, Mulroney wrote a regular column for the Toronto Sun. At the time, his father, Brian Mulroney, was on the board of directors of Quebecor which owned the Sun chain.
He began his career as an entertainment reporter as the Quebec City correspondent for The Chatroom in 2000 on CTV-owned digital channel Talktv and became one of five co-hosts of the show in July 2001.
