CNN’s Alisyn Camerota Announces Husband’s Death Two Years After Pancreatic Cancer Diagnosis

CNN’s Alisyn Camerota reported that her husband, Tim Lewis, died in July, two years after being diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He was 58.

Camerota, a former co-anchor of CNN’s “New Day” and “CNN Newsroom” and current political commentator, posted an Instagram message Friday sharing the news.

“I can’t imagine any human being who could overcome a devastating diagnosis with more humor, humility and courage than Tim,” Camerota wrote. “He was a phenomenal father, husband, friend and role model and the rest of us are trying to follow in his footsteps.”

Camerota revealed that this month would have been their 23rd wedding anniversary.

“I feel incredibly fortunate to have had such a deep, committed and loving partnership during our time together,” she wrote.

Camerota and Lewis share three children together, twin daughters Ale and Cessa, and son Nate, according to his obituary.

Lewis was involved in community service throughout his life, volunteering at homeless shelters and donating to education and scholarship funds, according to his obituary. His family has established a fund in his memory “to help other families who are going through a similar ordeal,” Camerota said.

A native of Kansas City, Missouri, Lewis attended Yale University and pursued a successful career in private equity and corporate consulting.

Camerota said she and her children are still finding their bearings after losing Lewis and trying to emulate the strength and stability he inspired in them.

“I plan to write more in the coming days and resume work in the coming weeks,” Camerota wrote. “Thank you all for your love, your letters, your trays of lasagna and your many acts of kindness.”
