The Truth About Roger Goodell And Jane Skinner's Marriage

Writer Daniel Cobb

Goodell and Skinner don't often reveal much information about their twin daughters, who were born in 2001 (via Distractify). However, in 2016, Skinner told USA Today that both girls appear to be taking after their father when it comes to sports. "They play both team and individual sports: lacrosse, soccer, tennis, and track. They've been on both winning and losing teams," she said. "We've been really fortunate that they have coaches who have emphasized the importance of having fun, of learning, of teamwork, and I think that sometimes gets lost in this day and age."

Now college-aged, it's not confirmed where the girls chose to attend school, though in 2018, the family was seen touring Elon University in North Carolina. Goodell told the Elon News Network that his daughters became interested in Elon after his niece graduated in 2016. He also said they were "good students, unlike their father."

When Skinner left her Fox News job in 2010, she cited her daughters as the main reason. "My life in the 12 years I have been here has changed significantly in wonderful ways and they've created a lot of new responsibilities," she said when she stepped down, as reported by The Huffington Post. "I added a husband Roger Goodell who has in the last couple of years become the NFL commissioner, and has a job even busier than mine. I have twin daughters, so to do justice to this new life I've decided to take a break from the business."
