Background and Personal Life

Jillian Mele was born to Roseanna Mele and Thomas Mele on 17th September 1982 in Philadelphia. Being an American by nationality, she is very proud of her country and what the country represents. She completed her education in 2015 in arts and communication from La Salle University. At her University, she used to play a lot of sports, including volleyball, softball, and hockey.

She is not married yet, and she is not currently in any severe affairs. She has never been a part of any controversial issues at her work either. Although there have been a lot of rumors surrounding her, they have never been proven. She has not officially introduced anyone till recently. Very recently, she tweeted that her boyfriend is from Boston. He is not known either; all she has tweeted is his location, which is Boston.

It is also said that she is dating someone, and she wishes to keep it at a low profile. She hopes to be away from the glare of the media, keeping her personal life to herself. It is widespread about personalities today. She is one of the people who are not comfortable revealing her personal life in public. That would increase the number of rumors and other problems. By keeping it away from the media's eyes, they can be more stress-free and relaxed. Not a lot of people who are in the limelight do that! One of the most famous examples of a person who chose to keep his family life private was John F Kennedy.

There are no details about the guy from Boston. Was it just a term to put all the fans and stalkers away, or is there a guy from Boston who has wooed her off? She did not seem to reply much about the Boston guy. Recently, a rumor that Jillian got married spread widely. But, due to the lack of proof like pictures or her comments. There was no proof to prove the rumors true, and thus, they died out soon.

She is a beautiful girl, with a great body of 33-24-35 inches, which would make most guys swoon over her. Her weight, as the last known, was 56 kgs. She is pretty tall, being 5.8 inches. Jillina is a fitness enthusiast and loves to keep herself fit by doing aerobics and yoga.

Jillian never talks about her personal life, childhood, or who she is dating now. On mother's day, she spoke of her mother. She said that her mother was a terrific woman who could single-handedly do everything. She used to be with her during every part of her life and had never left her side, especially when she needed her the most.

Career

Mele began her media career as a co-anchor for the evening news after finishing her education. She previously worked as a cashier at O'Neill's Food Market in Glenside, Pennsylvania. She then worked in Presque as a daily sports correspondent and news presenter. During her internship at Comcast Sports Philadelphia, she began her formal TV career. Jillian Mele worked as a co-host for Binghamton's evening news. She has also worked as a reporter for WIVT and WBGH-TV. In 2007, she also worked for NBC10 before joining TCN Cable Network. She has worked as a broadcaster and anchor for sports programs since then. Her journalism has earned her two Emmy awards. She earned her first Emmy in 2014 for an Olympics special and her second in 2016 for a tailgate special.

She said her favorite moment of her career was covering the Eagles' Super Bowl parade in Philadelphia. From a recital at school to the first few days of her new job, her mom was very supportive and by her side. She stated that her mom used to pick her from school and drop her too. This also shows that she did not have her father figure near her for long. Little is known as to why her parents separated. We do know that she missed her father dearly and always wanted her father's love.

What is known to everyone is that she is very career-oriented. She is constantly on the run collecting data about traffic as well as weather. During the floods, she worked very hard getting minute news and also details from people who had lost their houses in the floods. She spent a lot of time going to people whose lives were severely affected because of the flood. She is very dedicated to her job and wants to do it to the best of her ability.

She once said it is essential to report the weather as many people make decisions based on her reporting. Thus, she said that she needs to be her best every single day of the year. Her motto is that people invite her to their home by switching on their TV, and she wants to provide accurate information with understanding and passion. Recognizing her talent and hard work, she was offered the prestigious Emmy Award, which is her pride.

Networth

Jillian Mele's net worth is estimated to be around $900,000. She has a hefty salary owing to her job. She is a big fan of shopping and spends a large amount of her compensation on shopping. She has recently bought a car, which seems to be quite expensive. Nonetheless, she also donates a substantial part of her salary as donations.

She has switched jobs a few months ago and is now a traffic anchor for NBC 10. She has been a terrific anchor and has garnered a lot of praises, which have been heaped upon her by fans and critics alike.

All we could hope is that soon she would point someone as her to-be husband. Her earlier relationship did not end well, and that's perhaps the reason why Jillian wants to keep this one under wraps. She is active on the online platforms of Twitter and Facebook and keeps posting updates.
