What's more, Deborah has always been there for the Today star - and one memorable occasion springs to mind as we reflect on their relationship this Valentine's Day.

"What I do love is she's my biggest protector, if you will," Al said. "Every now and then [Craig] Melvin will make some age joke and she'll text him.
"She says, 'You better knock it off,' and he will go 'Oh I got a text from Deborah!' She will come for you!"

Hoda told the dad-of-three. "Every now and then!" Al replied. "Every now and then, and Deborah will text you and say 'Pull it back,' like sometimes you take something and you take it too far," Hoda continued.
"What do you do if you get the Deborah text?" she asked. "Well I always figure it's live TV and there's nothing I can do about it now!" Al replied.
Deborah is Al's biggest cheerleader
Deborah herself is well-known on TV, working as a television journalist for ABC News, for shows including 20/20 alongside David Muir. What's more, the couple's daughter Leila is also following in her parents' footsteps as a reporter, having studied journalism at university in Paris.
