Television icon Al Roker shares an unexpected familial tie with rock star Lenny Kravitz—both are linked through the late Roxie Roker. Best remembered for her standout performance in “The Jeffersons,” Roxie, who also happens to be Al’s first cousin, sadly succumbed to breast cancer at 66 in 1995.
It was much later that Roker discovered this connection, a revelation that undoubtedly brought a sense of pride in his star-studded lineage..
