I first saw Jillian on Good Day Live, the national version of Good Day L.A. Each morning before school I would look forward to her loud and outspoken style. Even at the tender age of 9, I imagined that when I grew up, we would make the best of friends.

She was beautiful, Canadian, and a major shit stirrer. What’s there not to love? Between her marriage, battle with depression, and being adopted, Jillian did not hold back. If it was on her mind, it was on the air…often to the dismay of co-anchors and producers who couldn’t handle a woman who was smart AND opinionated. What blasphemy.

Now, some years later, I finally get to meet Jillian who is happily remarried to actor Grant Reynolds and the proud mama of one very pretty little lady named Ruby Raven Reynolds. Jillian was recently in Canada to promote Nutrisystem, which helped get her pre-baby body back. It was quite the trip – “I got to meet 30 relatives I’d never met before.” Her birth mom had 8 brothers and sisters!
