Janelle Pierzina's Husband Jess DeSanto: Inside Their Family Moments

Janelle Pierzina's husband, Jess DeSanto, is a loving father and successful business owner. DeSanto met his wife in college but pursued different careers. While Pierzina is in real estate, her husband is a business owner running an investment company.

Janelle Pierzina's love life was rarely kept out of the spotlight since her "Big Brother" fame. She was even linked to one of the notorious series contestants, Will Kirby, among other celebrities.

The reality star eventually settled down and married her non-show business boyfriend, Jess DeSanto, who she had known for 12 years before tying the knot.

The pair met during their college years at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. Although they initially began their relationship as friends, she and DeSanto eventually fell in love. DeSanto asked his then-girlfriend to marry him in 2009, and they became husband and wife the following year.

The Couple Have Known Each Other for a Long Time

DeSanto's wife was only 18 when she met him at the university, which allowed the couple a lot of time to get to know each other. Not long after their wedding, the pair became parents to their firstborn, Violet Anne.

In 2013, the duo welcomed their only son, Lincoln William. Pierzina commemorated the special day with a social media post on Twitter. "I'm a mommy again," she wrote. "Meet Lincoln. I am absolutely in love with him."

The pair's youngest child, a daughter named Stella, was born in 2014. She sometimes appears on her mother's Instagram account, showing their strong resemblance. Pierzina wrote in one post, where her little girl was wrapped in a fur coat:

"My daughter Stella is such a ray of sunshine on this cold, snowy day."

Besides their son and daughters, DeSanto and Pierzina also share a fur baby, an adorable Goldendoodle named Sprinkles. The couple does not shy away from showing affection to each other online.

He owns the investment group DeSanto Investments, which he runs with his brother, Jake. DeSanto also owns and operates AmericInn, Apple Valley.

Previously, Pierzina dedicated a sweet post to her husband for National Spouse Day. "I've known him longer in life than I haven't!" she wrote. Pierzina also often shares glimpses of her days with family and photos of her little kids on social media.

Janelle Describes Herself as a Workaholic

Besides her most crucial role as a mother, Pierzina works as a real estate agent and works tirelessly to make sales. She is a self-proclaimed "workaholic" who tries to make the buying and selling process seamless for her clients.

According to the former television star, purchasing a home is a big commitment and milestone in one's life, which makes her feel honored to be a significant part of her client's real estate journey. Pierzina works with Edina Realty and raises her family in a loving Edina, Minnesota home.

Jess DeSanto Is an Entrepreneur

Her husband, DeSanto, is also successful in his own line of work. He owns the investment group DeSanto Investments, which he runs with his brother, Jake. DeSanto also owns and operates AmericInn, Apple Valley, a DeSanto Investments-owned property.

In 2012, DeSanto's investment company reportedly owned seven properties and three hotels around Wisconsin and Minnesota. There is not much information on the number of properties they currently have under their group.

Many television personalities married spouses who are stars in their own rights, including CNN news anchor Erin Burnett, who tied the knot with banker David Rubulotta.

The "Erin Burnett OutFront" star's husband took his MBA in Columbia and began his financial career with Lehman Brothers. He later pursued greater heights in different opportunities and currently holds the Managing Director - Leveraged Credit position at Citibank, one of the United States' largest banks.
