Chet and Nat.
They were a TV news anchor match made in heaven.
Natalie Jacobson yesterday shared some kind words about her former husband Chet Curtis in a statement she read to the Herald. Curtis died Wednesday night at age 74 of pancreatic cancer.
"Chet and I shared a wonderful time as partners on television and in life — and have a beautiful daughter together who was married last June. Thankfully, Chet was well enough to be there. I will think of happy times even while being very sad that his life ended so soon."
In a tearful interview with Jack Harper on WCVB-TV (Ch. 5), Jacobson said Curtis "loved what he did, as I did, and I think that's one of the reasons he and I worked so well together."
The married duo anchored WCVB's nightly news for nearly two decades beginning in 1982. Boston TV viewers adored them.
"He was my life partner and my work partner," Jacobson said during the WCVB interview, "and it was a wonderful marriage on both fronts for a long time."
After they split up, Curtis left the station in 2001 to take a job at New England Cable News. Jacobson said the divorce was "very hard," saying: "I thought we'd be married forever."
Jacobson couldn't hold back the tears. "I'm grateful for the years we had," she told WCVB. "I'm grateful for the three children. I'm sad Chet died early, I really am."
In an online story on Channel 5's website, Jacobson talked about their TV reign.
"We were so fortunate, and we realize we were, to live in the genesis of television."
And they couldn't wait to get to work in the morning.
"What you see is what you get," she told WCVB. "We never felt like we were acting. It was comfortable, it was honest."
And Curtis, Jacobson said, "lived life to the fullest."
