Mele Is Very Close to Her Family
Mele was born on September 17, 1982, in Philadelphia, to parents Roseann Zlemek Mele and Thomas Mele. She has one younger brother.
On 2010’s Mother’s Day, the Fox anchor gave a beautiful tribute to her mother, a registered nurse for more than 25 years, via a mesmeric news article on the NBC Philadelphia website. She stated that her mother had always been there for her throughout her career and her mother was one of the most important things in her life.
Later, on June 17, 2012, Mele also appreciated her father through a Facebook post wishing him happy Father’s Day.
She Had a Boyfriend but Is She Married Now?
Back in 2013, Mele revealed that she had a boyfriend while replying to one of her fan's tweets on Twitter. "My boyfriend works at the site of the 1st blast, I've been wearing this! #bostonstrong," she wrote.
But there was no more information about her boyfriend what so over.
In the following years, she hinted that she was dating someone, mentioning her boyfriend occasionally through social media.
Mele even took to Twitter on May 26, 2016, to state, "I have a boyfriend, but thank you." In March, the same year, she had shared a picture, snapped at Devils bridge, with an unmentioned man.

Going by all these details, it is evident that Mele prefers keeping her personal life private, and even when she is dating a man, she keeps his identity a secret.
Therefore, her present relationship status remains under wraps.
