Professional Career
Giselle Fernandez’s hard work is the sole reason she is where she is today. She started her career at KRDO-TV in 1983, then went on to KEYT-TV before receiving her big break in 1985 as a reporter and weekend anchor at KTLA. The name was proposed to KTLA by Fess Parker, an actress.
After years of hard work, Fernandez got her first national news role as a reporter and backup anchor for CBS News in October 1991. She eventually went to NBC, where she presented programs such as The Today Show and NBC Nightly News, among others. During that period, she addressed some of the most pressing issues of the day, such as Cuban immigration, Haitian instability, and the Persian Gulf War.
Relationship Status
Fernandez, who is 1.81 meters tall, was formerly married to John Farrand, who is now 85. He is a British-American business executive who worked for the Music Hire Group Limited in the United Kingdom for over 14 years. One month after her father died of Alzheimer’s disease, Giselle married John, her longtime love. They may date for many years before getting married. The couple went down the aisle in a private ceremony on November 27th, 2002. Their loved ones met at their Beverly Hills home on Thursday afternoon for the big day.
During their marriage, the couple’s daughter, Talei, was adopted from Guatemala. But then something went wrong between them, and they decided not to continue their marriage. They split in April 2014 after being together for nearly two years. The Access Hollywood anchor was previously engaged to Ron Kershaw, whom she met in Chicago, before marrying Farrand. Kershaw, an American reporter, was previously linked to TV host Jessica Savitch.
Fernandez and Ron were engaged after a short time of dating, but their relationship lasted just about a year. Ron passed away in July 1989, when he was still married to Giselle. He died of pancreatic and liver cancer at the age of 44. She added that it was a traumatic event for her and that he was her life’s love.
