JOY REID AND JASON REID – 23 YEARS
Joy Reid has been a political commentator and a national correspondent for MSNBC. It was also announced that she would host The ReidOut, a new weeknight show slated to start by March 2021. Her husband of 23 years, Jason Reid, is a writer and editor who went straight to this career right after graduating from college and worked for NBC News.
It is likely that the two met in one of the gatherings for journalists or writers, but very little is known about their love story. The couple faced some challenges when Joy’s previous blog posts from “Reid Report” were reproduced. It had content that was considered defamatory to the LGBT community. The TV personality had since apologized and owned up, which was noble of her to do. Jason stood by her, as did MSNBC. It appears that their love and investment for each other of 23 years could not be rocked by the most difficult of hardships.
