Charissa Thompson recently got candid about her rollercoaster of a love life. During a heart to heart with Kylie Kelce, in her podcast ‘Not Gonna Lie‘. The sportscaster and host admitted to having “married the wrong people, plural.” Talking about her previous relationships, she emphasized that her past experiences have pretty much shaped her current outlook on marriage — and family planning.
Charissa Thompson is not interested in marrying her long-term boyfriend
As per Daily Express US, Thompson’s first marriage happened when she was 25. It was a brief union with an unknown person. Her second spouse was baseball agent Kyle Thousand, whom she married in 2020. The marriage lasted for 2 years, but also ended in divorce. Exposure to such circumstances in her personal life left a lasting impression on her. Ultimately, it solidified her current attitude towards love and marriage.
Charissa is now dating Steven Cundari, a marketing executive based in Los Angeles. The relationship became public by 2022. Thompson has re-affirmed that she has absolutely no plans of marrying again. “No marriage for me,” she shared with Kelce on her podcast. She added, ” Just being with a man who is kind and doesn’t take from me is commitment enough for me.”
She also remarked on having kids, and clarified why she chooses not to. “I always wanted to have kids. I mean I grew up, and I was the nanny, I babysat the neighbor kids when I was 11 years old.”, she said. She went on, “I always had this idea that I was going to have kids – three boys and one girl.” However, when her marriages did not work out, she re-thought her desires.
In fact, Thompson believes that bringing up a kid in an unstable environment is not fair. She conversed with Kylie further, saying, “If I can’t control the outcomes of these marriages, at least I can control that that I’m not going to bring up a child into the world and share that child if we separate.” Kylie Kelcie who understands the pressure of public relationships, called her decision “rational.”
Thompson is focused on her own peace of mind right now. While she is in love, and in a committed relationship, a tag of marriage seems unnecessary to her when it comes to love partnerships.
