Some Lesser Known Facts About Jean Currivan Trebek
Jean Currivan Trebek is an entrepreneur who works as a professional religious science practitioner, metaphysician, Reiki Master, and sound healer. She is well known for being the wife of popular television celebrity, Alex Trebek, who is best known as the host of the game show Jeopardy! (1984â2020).
Jean hails from Greenlawn, New York. She was born into a Catholic family, and she spent her childhood on the East Coast, Long Island, along with her elder brother, Chris Currivan, and a younger sister, Audrey Currivan.
Jeanâs brother, Chris Currivan, was one and a half years elder than Jean. He was born with a congenital disorder âHydrocephalus,â a condition in which extra fluid puts pressure on the brain, therefore, he suffered various physical, intellectual, and developmental disabilities. Jean grew up looking after her brother and tending to his needs. In an interview, she said,
We went to school together, and I promised my parents that I would watch out for him. Sometimes I would even leave my classroom to go check on him. I took care of my brother, and it felt like a gift rather than a burden. Other kids might have resented that responsibility. I thought it was a blessing. â
She worked as a real estate project manager on Long Island before moving to Los Angeles, where she attended Pepperdine University and was a weekend bookkeeper for a business-executive. Incidentally, her boss turned out to be a friend of Alex Trebek. In an interview, while sharing the memory of her acquaintance with Alex, she said,
Alex was my bossâs buddy. Heâd come over every Saturday to play backgammon and have lunch. I knew that he was on some TV show, but he never said much about it and I didnât ask.â
On April 30, 1990, Jean got married to Alex Trebek, who was previously married to Elaine Callie. Although Alex had no children with Elaine, he adopted Elaineâs daughter, Nicky, from her previous marriage.

After divorcing his first wife in 1981, Alex and Jean crossed paths at a party in 1988, and later, he invited her to his home for dinner. Born in 1940, Alex Trebek was twenty-three years older than Jean. In an interview, Alex said,
I guess if Iâd met her when I was in my 20s she wouldnât have been born yet. But hey, 29 years is pretty goodâŠ
Jean Currivan Trebekâs engagement ring was made of 16-carat sapphire enclosed with diamonds.
 At the age of 80, Alex Trebek died due to pancreatic cancer on November 8, 2020.
 Jean is also a blogger who has a blog âInsidewink,â a light-hearted lifestyle website on which she interviews various actors, spiritual leaders, and other famous personalities.
