Al Roker’s Ex-Wife Alice Bell Dies at 77

The couple married in 1984 and split 10 years later.

Iconic weatherman Al Roker’s ex-wife, Alice Bell, has died, the pair’s daughter confirmed this week. She was 77. The tragic news was shared by Courtney Roker Laga on Instagram Monday, where she posted an emotional tribute in honor of her late mother. “She was my mother, my heart, and the most loving grandmother to Sku,” Courtney wrote alongside a carousel of photos of the two. “I was with her for her last breath, and I will carry her love with me always.” The weatherman has yet to publicly comment on his ex-wife’s death, though he was absent from the Today show on Tuesday following the news. Roker and Bell were married from 1984 to 1994. They adopted their daughter Courtney in 1987. Following their separation, Roker married Deborah Roberts in 1995 and welcomed two children with her, Leila and Nicholas. At the time of writing, Bell’s cause of death is still unclear.
