The ongoing saga of former NBC 5 WMAQ-TV reporter Amy Jacobson continues to get more depressing. She left NBC 5 last year after CBS 2 WBBM-TV cameras caught her on tape, in a bikini, in the backyard of Craig Stebic. Ostensibly, Jacobson was there to reporting on the story of Stebic’s missing wife. However, after CBS 2 aired the video, Jacobson’s credibiltiy in Chicago media vaporized.

Since that incident, Jacobson has been without employment. Now, she and her husband are splitting up, according to the Chicago Sun-Times’ Michael Sneed:

It’s a sad script: Former Channel 5 reporter Amy Jacobson, whose controversial “bikini” firing last summer made headlines, is having a tough go.

Translation: Besides losing her job, her house, and thousands of dollars when their home was robbed earlier this year, Jacobson’s husband, Jaime Anglada, has filed for divorce!

Translation: “She will not be spending her 39th birthday today with her husband,” a source said. “He moved out of their North Side apartment and recently served her with divorce papers.” The couple, who married in 2002, have two young sons.

Jacobson has appeared on local radio stations since her TV work has dried up, including stints on WLS-AM and regular Sunday appearances on WIND-AM’s “Living Large” show with Geoff Pinkus.
