Congratulations, I’ve been a fan of Jennifer since she started being our weather lady. Hope to see her soon cause we miss seeing her pretty smile.
You are a inspiration for all Americans. Especially having a mother from South East Asia. You are so pretty. God Bless you.
Jennifer,
You are such an awesome looking, full of energy T.V. Personality. I don’t remember you wearing the same clothes twice ever, you must have a very big closet. I always look forwards to your weather reports, and you probably blow away all of the other weather people away (sorry Guy).
I still remember when there was an obstacle course with the military, and you participated in the course “live” on T.V. And you went for broke and jumped in the large puddle and got muddy, head to toe. I realized then how much of a go getter, you are.
Keep up the awesome work and gorgeous looks on screen, because you rock!!!
Aloha Jennifer, Congratulations on your new “Keiki”. You are such a great gift to the KGMB newscast. But I also love my KGMB “Hawaii NewsNow ohana” you are part of them. I’m looking forward to seeing you again. Once again…Congratulations to you and your husband.
My wife and I have been a fan of Jennifer ever since she started with KHNL. Also have tried to guess when she would deliver the obvious “package” she was expecting. Congratulations on your newborn, Jen.

Who makes your clothes? You always look amazing
