ALEX TREBEK – JEAN CURRIVAN

Alex Trebek was known for being the long-running game show host of the syndicated Jeopardy! Aside from hosting, he starred on a wide array of shows as either a panelist or a player. For instance, he joined the show Card Sharks and ended up winning the competition, but that’s not all.

He also won the heart of Jean Currivan, a real estate manager whom he married in 1990. The duo crossed paths at an event in the late ’80s, and the host felt sparks and electricity upon seeing the lovely lady. He eventually invited her for a dinner date. Despite their 23-year age gap, the pair made it through 30 years of union. In his latest memoir, Trebek opened up about his wife, writing, “We are one soul in two bodies.” The two are blessed with two kids: Matthew and Emily. Matthew has a restaurant business while Emily works in real estate.
