About Jillian Barberie Reynolds
Jillian Reynolds (born September 26, 1966), best known by her former name Jillian Barberie, is a Canadian-American actress, television hostess, and sportscaster who some call "The Fox of Fox", since the majority of her entertainment resume involves working with various elements of the Fox/News Corporation empire -- including the FOX network, various Fox cable networks, and 20th Century Fox.
She can be seen on the Los Angeles-based morning show Good Day L.A.. She is also working for FOX Sports primarily, as the weather girl on FOX NFL Sunday since the 2000 NFL season except for the 2006 season.
Reynolds was born Jillian Warry in Burlington, Ontario. She went to Assumption Catholic Secondary School and then went on to graduate from Mohawk College (Hamilton), with a diploma from their two-year program in broadcast journalism. After completing her diploma, she worked for a variety of television stations, including The Weather Network in Montreal, WSVN in Miami and KTTV in Los Angeles (WSVN and KTTV are Fox Entertainment Group|Fox affiliates).
Reynolds was once married (1996 - 2002) to former Major League Baseball player Bret Barberie, whose surname she kept until her marriage to actor Grant Reynolds in a private ceremony on July 8, 2006.[2] She initially stated that she was legally changing her name to Jillian Reynolds, but keeping Barberie as her professional surname.[3] However, she has since chosen to use Reynolds as her surname on Fox NFL Sunday but continued to retain Barberie for her NutriSystem commercials. As of April 2009, she is now using Reynolds in those ads.
Reynolds works for the prevention of cruelty to animals and has nine pets of her own - all of whom she has adopted from shelters. She has often said that she believes her "adoptive" nature is due to the fact that she herself was adopted.
In December 2006, People magazine said Reynolds was pregnant with her first child, due July 7. She officially announced her pregnancy the morning of December 18, 2006, during the broadcast of Good Day L.A. Reynolds took a three month hiatus from the show beginning June 22, 2007. On July 9, an announcement on Good Day L.A. stated that she had given birth to a baby girl, Ruby Raven Reynolds, on July 6, 2007 at 5 p.m. The baby weighed 6 lbs. and 12 oz. By naming the baby Ruby Raven, the couple used two of the three names they had agreed-upon as candidates.
