From Seattle to Chicago: Liz Dueweke's Career Timeline and Marriage Updates Explained
By Maya Lin-Takahashi
Online searches questioning whether an anchor is still married often surge whenever a broadcaster stops tagging their spouse daily or changes cities. In Dueweke’s case, speculation stemmed purely from the logistical chaos of moving across state lines. Dueweke and Adam Mertz married on October 11, 2013, in an intimate ceremony held in Woodinville wine country just as Dueweke was establishing her presence on Seattle airwaves.
Mertz, a former television news producer and reporter who transitioned into strategic corporate communications, understands the intense demands of the newsroom. His media background gave the couple a shared operational language during grueling 2:30 a.m. alarm cycles. Far from separating, the couple hit their decade milestone in late 2023, celebrating 10 years of marriage while settling into their new Chicago neighborhood.
