News Anchors With Really Gorgeous Husbands

While a lot of news anchors are celebrities in their own right, they usually aren't in the public eye as much as supermodels and actors. News anchors may be highly recognizable public figures, but they are far less likely to become tabloid fodder like Hollywood celebs. Because of this, we tend to recognize news anchors' faces and names from television, but we don't usually get as many updates about their personal lives.

Singers and actors are often seen with their significant others at red carpet events, but news anchors often live more private lives. Unless you are a huge fan of an anchor, you probably don't know very much about what they are like once the cameras are off. It might come as a surprise, then, to see how many of your favorite news anchors are not only married but married to some pretty handsome men. Who knew that these news anchors were had really gorgeous husbands waiting for them at home?

Robin Meade celebrated her 25th anniversary with her husband, Tim Yeager, in 2018. She commemorated the milestone on Facebook, writing, "25 years later looking at our wedding album, and out pops his handwritten vows he delivered at the ceremony (with no 'repeat after me' coaching needed from the minister). I had no idea we stuffed them in the photo album years ago. What a touching surprise."

The two are college sweethearts. Meade says her gorgeous husband fell in love at first sight. "He says it was like God was telling him 'There she is!'" the HLN news anchor said in an interview with YourTango. "How sweet is that?"

While Yeager is quite handsome, Meade certainly didn't marry him for his looks and doesn't think anyone should marry a person for how attractive they are. "Sooner or later we all age and start to droop," said Meade. "Don't marry someone for their position and don't marry someone for money. Money comes and goes, and since when is that love? Marry someone because they make you laugh. Humor is always sexy. Besides, it's awfully hard to get mad at someone while they're making you laugh." 

Paula Faris and her gorgeous husband, John Krueger, have been together ever since college. According to the news anchor's Good Morning America bio, the couple were married in 2000 and have three children together.

The couple's fairy tale romance wasn't without its hardships. Like any couple, Faris and Krueger have had their ups and downs. The Journeys of Faith with Paula Faris podcast host told Good Housekeeping that the couple even split up at one point. "My husband and I were separated early on in our marriage before we had children," she said. "And we just didn't feel right about [it]. As much as I wanted to walk and as much as I wanted to be done with that marriage and move on with my life, I didn't have a peace about it."

Faris credits her faith with pulling them through the difficult period in their marriage. She and Krueger are now stronger than ever. "Happy Anniversary, babe," she wrote in 2019 on an Instagram photo of the couple in their younger years. "Cheers to when our hair was thicker ... We're gonna be so much hotter in another 19 years."

News anchor Martha MacCallum and her husband, Daniel Gregory, have been going strong for decades. According to The New York Times, the couple have been wed since 1992, when they got married in a lovely ceremony. According to Heavy, the couple have three children together.

MacCallum seems to keep her personal life fairly quiet, preferring to control her social media image and to keep her private life under wraps. In 2014, she gave Country Living a tour of her Cape Cod home and gave details about the renovations she and Gregory made to it, but she didn't reveal too many details about their home life. She also doesn't post many personal pictures on her Instagram account, instead sharing more work-related photos. Perhaps it's her dedication to keeping her personal life private that has helped her decades-long relationship with her gorgeous husband thrive.

According to AJC, CNN news anchor Brooke Baldwin fortuitously met James Fletcher at a holiday party and sparks flew pretty much from the very start. "I knew he was the guy since I met him," she said. "He's been incredibly flexible being with me."

The British producer and director has been by Baldwin's side since 2015, even interrupting their 2016 vacation in France for Baldwin to cover airport attacks in Istanbul. "It took me 36 years to find him, and it was worth the wait," she told People.

The two were married in an intimate ceremony in 2018, with Baldwin's dog serving as the ring bearer. "There wasn't a dry eye, including James and myself!" Baldwin told People in an interview about her special day. "I'll never, ever forget that moment when our eyes locked. I wanted to run towards him."

The moment ESPN news anchor Maria Taylor and Rodney Blackstock set eyes on each other at a 2014 basketball game, they knew something special was happening. "I've never had that feeling before, ever, where you just look at someone and you're like, 'That's the one,'" Taylor told The Knot.

Blackstock proposed after eight months, but the couple ultimately decided to call off their wedding. "I wasn't ready to be a wife and he wasn't ready to be a husband. We just needed more time," said Taylor. "As difficult as it was to break off the wedding, we wanted to be in a better place together — especially when you go through a life-changing event like a wedding."

But in 2019, the couple reunited and decided they were ready to embark on a life together. "We're going through our life together, forever," said the news anchor. "The things that I'm not great at or the things that I struggle with, he's super strong in. ... He's definitely that other half."

News anchor Lisa Ling has two kids with her husband, Dr. Paul Song. She married the oncologist in a celebrity extravaganza in 2010. "Every day with Lisa is a honeymoon," Song told InStyle of their nuptials.

Life is still a honeymoon for the couple as they raise their two kids, although Ling has admitted that motherhood scares her a little bit. "I'm terrified of raising two girls," she told People in 2017. "Just thinking of myself as a teenager and how boy crazy I was and how curious I was, I am absolutely terrified."

With a doctor and a news anchor for parents, their kids, Ray and Jett, are going to have the facts of life presented to them eloquently but in a matter-of-fact way. Ling said that, while her own parents didn't really talk to her about "sex or dating or emotions," she wants her kids to be better prepared. "I want them both to be empowered about everything, to know that they can do whatever they want and not be inhibited about anything — but that they need to be careful sometimes," she said.

We know from photos that news anchor Betty Nguyen has posted to Instagram that her husband is a good-looking guy, but that's about all we know about him. Nguyen has been careful about protecting her husband's identity, and hasn't revealed so much as his name. She has shared, however, that she and her handsome hubby met on Halloween. "It was his silky blond wig that did the trick," she wrote on Instagram in a since-deleted post.

Nguyen is a doting mom and posts plenty of pictures of her kids on Instagram, but she didn't always want to be a mother. Her gorgeous husband changed her mind. "I've spent most of my life with a to-do list of goals that didn't include having a baby, until I was in my mid-30's," she wrote for Today. "From cable news to network news, it's been an exciting adventure of cameras, travel and living the dream. But when I met my husband that dream changed. I was finally ready for kids."

The news anchor added, "Honestly, that biological clock people talk about started to tick ... Once we said our 'I do's' it was ticking so loudly, I literally couldn't sleep."
