With a flourishing career in journalism and what appears to be a fulfilling life, Sandra Smith’s reputation precedes her. Her current job at Fox News Channel puts her on the map as a popular journalist around the world. Although her name sometimes rings true when mentioned, the same cannot be said for her husband, John Connelly.

Although he rose to prominence as a businessman and financial television commentator, John Connelly was always in the limelight. Let’s take a look at the lesser known facts about Sandra Smith’s husband.

John Connelly bio

Until the date and year of his birth, John’s background information remained a mystery. There is, however, speculation that he was born in Chicago to parents whose names are not known. It is also unknown if he was raised as an only child or if he shared his childhood memories with a sibling.

John reportedly went to school in his town of birth and also worked there. According to his academic records which do not mention his early education, John studied as a painter at the Arts Institute of Chicago.

Despite his college degrees, he went on to work in television as an economics commentator from 2010. His credits as a commentator can be traced back to Chicago’s Holy Cathedral.

Her children and family life

From what is obvious, John Connelly is in the spotlight today due to his association with Sandra Smith whom he married in 2010. When they first met, Sandra and John worked at the same place in Chicago. It was her first day on the job as a sales clerk and it seemed like John was the only person unaware of her at the time. Nonetheless, it was actually the one who paid the most attention to the revelation he would reveal on their wedding day that he knew from the start that he was going to spend the rest of his life with her.

After dating for a while, Sandra gave John the commentator job at her company following the end of his old job. They got engaged on December 28, 2009, and on May 2, 2010, they sealed their union in an official wedding ceremony.

John Connelly and his wife are now the proud parents of two adorable children. The first joy the family welcomed was Cora Belle Connelly, who joined the family in May 2013, three years after their marriage. The birth of Cora brought a lot of joy to her family and Sandra took a few months of maternity leave to take care of her. She made her return to television later in August.

On January 12, 2015, a second child, a son, entered the sheepfold. He is named after his father and little John was born healthy and weighed 10 pounds at birth. The family – mother, father and children – currently reside in New York alongside their dog called Whiskey.
