And she’s accumulated enoughaccoladesto prove her talent.
And boy, does she look good doing it!
She’s come a long way from her humble upbringing in a small town in Texas.
And over the years, she has seen and done some amazing things.
So, what is it that keeps this journalist ticking?
Read on to learn all about the stunning transformation of Tamron Hall.
She didn’t come from a family of means who lived in a wealthy area quite the opposite actually.
“Ourentertainmentwas a water hose and spraying it at each other running around.”
But rather than bemoan her low-income home life, Hall is grateful for the experience it gave her.
She really had a lot of people in her corner!
Because of the support of those around her, Hall was able to thrive.
Clearly, that wound up working out.
Good job, pops!
“I’ve interviewed every celebrity chef there is,” she joked in an interview withVariety.
“Give me a microphone, point to the camera and we’ll get it done.”
Hall was also nominated for an Emmy award for her consumer report segment, “The Bottom Line.”
Those early years of experience set Hall up for success and helped her grow as a journalist.
“It’s just the training I’ve had over the years.”
Clearly, she’s developed someseriouson-the-ground skills.
Facing unspeakable tragedy
In 2004, an unspeakable tragedy occurred.
“No one deserves what happened to my sister,” Hall shared.
No arrest was ever made in the case of Renate’s death due to a lack of evidence.
“Do we know who did this to her as defined by a court of law?
No,” she continued.
What a horrific experience this all had to have been.
It wasn’t until later that she was able to talk about it publicly.
The latter won an Emmy for outstanding live coverage in October 2010 congrats, Tamron!
Additionally in 2013, Hall signed on with Investigation Discovery to hostDeadline: Crime with Tamron Hall.
That’s some intense stuff right there!
And as you might expect, Hall was ecstatic.
“How could I not be walking on cloud nine?”
she asked in a 2014 interview withEssence.
“I’m a part of this for women, for Black women, for all of us.
And I’m just taken aback by it.”
“I don’t want it to be the total sum of who I am.”
Crusading against domestic violence
The year 2014 also marked a momentous time for Hall for another reason.
Because of her personal, heart-wrenching experience with domestic violence, Hall decided that she wanted to do something.
What a seriously brave and admirable thing to do.
Tamron, we have nothing but respect for you!
That year, Hall launched her Shine a Light initiative to raise awareness of domestic violence.
In this way, kids can learn early on how to recognize domestic violence.
“I’m able to step out on faith because I believe I am protected.”
So no matter where she is or what she does, she knows she’s not alone.
Faith also gives Hall a genuine sense of purpose in her life.
What a really thoughtful and comforting way to move through life.
Kelly has since been let go fromMegyn Kelly Todayfor offensive remarks about donning blackface, as reported byNBC News.
“I did not leave NBC with ‘grrrr’ anger,” she explained in an interview withVariety.
“Was there disappointment?
Do I feel phenomenal today?
However, when she found out about the allegations against the now-disgraced executive, she was horrified.
“I’m not anti-anyone but I am certainly proud of the Southern black people who raised me.”
“I said to him on Twitter, ‘First of all, why did that bother you?'”
Sounds like she shut him right down!
She hasn’t had time!
“We all owe it to ourselves, ultimately, to stop and smell the roses.”
She’s married!
Tamron Hall blew up Instagram in 2019 with a double announcement.
She posted avideoand apictureof herself on the social media platform, revealing that she’s pregnant!

“My husband Steven and I are beyond excited,” she noted.
We can’t wait for her to welcome her bundle of joy!
You guessed it she’s finally getting a new show!
“When one door closes…(say it with me) another one opens!
@disney just announced that my nationally syndicated daytime talk show ‘Tamron Hall’ will premiere on 9-9-19!”
she gushed in a post on herInstagrampage.
It’s about time!
And that’s not all either, as she’s also making some big moves.
She’s finally going totrulybe the master of her own destiny.
Geddie has expressed his excitement about the venture, too.
“Tamron will bring her abundant wit, style, intelligence and warmth to her show.
She has the unparalleled breadth of experience to talk and listen to all sides and bring folks together.”
What an exciting time in Hall’s life!
