MSNBC News Correspondent Chris Jansing Divorce Her Husband After Marrying In 1982. Know Her Current Relationship Status

Christine Ann "Chris" Kapostasy-Jansing, or, Chris Jansing, is one of those talented reporters who believes in delivering the right news to the audience. Her work experience of more than four decades adds to her unbelievable reporting skills.

But today we're not here to talk about how awesome reporter she's, rather how good of a wife or girlfriend is she.

After her short-term work at WIPS, she joined WNYT.

Soon after becoming a permanent member of the WNYT, she married her boyfriend Robert Jansing, a Research Scientist in 1982.

Not many people knew about her marriage until she started using her husband name. She stated that it was quite difficult to pronounce her birth name so that's why she opted to use her husband's surname.

But as fate would have it, the couple got separated after mutually agreeing in divorcing due to irreconcilable differences.

The 60-years-old journalist doesn't share any children with her husband.

Since then she's not linked with anyone and nor reported to go on a date. Well, looks like the award-winning journalist is currently focused on her career and doesn't want to involve in any relationships right now.
