Jake Anderson, a well-known fisherman from the reality show Deadliest Catch, has announced his divorce from Jenna Anderson after 13 years of marriage. The news broke during the premiere of the show's 22nd season, where Jake openly discussed the challenges that led to their separation, including the demands of his career that kept him away from home. He stated, “After 17 years together, Jenna and I have decided to call it quits,” attributing the split largely to his frequent absences due to crab fishing. The couple shares three children: Aiden (11), Cadence (nearly 9), and Luka (6). Jake revealed that they had been living apart for about eight months prior to the public announcement, indicating that the decision was not made lightly. Alongside personal struggles, Jake is also navigating professional instability, including legal advice regarding his investments in a fishing vessel. As he takes on the role of captain of the Cornelia Marie, he reflects on the challenges and memories tied to his early years in the fishing industry. Jake and Jenna's relationship began in 2009 at a Seattle festival and culminated in a wedding officiated by fellow captain Sig Hansen in 2012. Over the years, Jake has spoken about his battles with alcoholism and the support Jenna provided during his recovery journey.
