About
Vanessa Lachey (née Minnillo) won Miss Teen USA in 1998 before becoming an MTV host on The Morning After (2003) and Total Request Live (2003 to 2007). She also served as an Entertainment Tonight correspondent until 2007.
After dating Derek Jeter for two years, Vanessa moved on with Nick Lachey in 2006. Though the couple parted ways in June 2009, they patched things up a few months later and tied the knot in July 2011. They welcomed son Camden in 2012, daughter Brooklyn in 2015 and son Phoenix in 2016.
Vanessa competed against Nick on season 25 of Dancing With the Stars, finishing in seventh with her pro partner, Maksim Chmerkovskiy. The couple are the cohosts of Netflix dating shows Love Is Blind and The Ultimatum. Her acting credits include roles on Fox’s Dads and CBS’ NCIS: Hawai’i.
