LEILA'S PARENTS

Leila comes from a family of celebrities; both her parents are anchors for different TV stations. While her dad works for NBC as a meteorologist, her mom, Deborah Roberts, is an ABC journalist.

Although they work for rival networks, they've been able to endure the ups and downs of marriage.

Even as a young girl, Roker has put in work in carving her one niche.

Al and Deborah Roberts met in 1990 and immediately became good friends. For some time, Roberts also worked with NBC, and at the time, Al and his then-wife, Alice, had split up.

Roker decided to take the friendship to a new level, and after a two-year courtship, he proposed in 1994. The couple had their first child, Leila Ruth, through IVF after struggling with infertility issues. Their second child is a boy, Nicholas Albert Roker.
