Charissa Thompson turned a Thursday Night Football broadcast into pure comedy this week. When a colleague seemed ready to rank her ex-husbands during Amazon’s coverage of the Bears’30-24 win over the Patriots on October 22, the 44-year-old sportscaster fired back:“I thought you were gonna make me rank my good, better, best ex-husbands, and they’re all bad.”The clip took off immediately, and honestly, the delivery was perfect.
It’s not the first time Thompson has used her love life for laughs. She’s joked with Michael Strahan about knowing when to leave a relationship, and she’s also been candid about the harder parts, admitting on her podcast that she felt“embarrassed”going through a second divorce at 40 after splitting from sports agent Kyle Thousand in 2022. That mix of honesty and humor is exactly why people connect with her.
These days Thompson is dating Steven Cundari, an LA marketing executive she met through Matthew and Kelly Stafford in 2022. She’s made it clear a third legal marriage isn’t on her vision board, but she and Cundari are considering a big celebration party for their relationship instead. A party without the paperwork? We kind of love it. So tell us: would you marry again if you had to do it a second time?
