Former Late Night Host Jay Leno ‘Vows’ to Care for Wife Mavis After ‘Tragic’ Dementia Diagnosis
After Jay Leno’s wife Mavis’s ‘tragic’ dementia diagnosis, he ‘vowed’ to look for her ‘till he has breath in his body,’ a source exclusively tells Closer.
The 73-year-old also filed for a conservatorship in an L.A. court in order to set up a living trust to ensure Mavis has “managed assets” to cover future care if he predeceases her. And totally in character: After the pair, who met at the famed Comedy Store, began dating, he proposed by telling her he wanted her to be covered by his insurance! “She’s been unable to handle day-to-day tasks.” While it’s unclear when she was diagnosed, Mavis has been experiencing symptoms for some time, like forgetting things and lapses in short-term memory.
