After ending their marriage, Jacobson decided to come out as gay two years later. Despite their split, the former couple maintained a closed friendship, and they even post photos with each other on their respective Instagram accounts.

In a 2019 interview with Fox News, Drescher shared her close relationship with Jacobson, expressing:

“He came out as gay, so he’s officially my gay ex-husband. We met when we were 15. We created ‘The Nanny.’ That became my baby. We were excellent writing and producing partners. And we’re now the best of friends. My parents still view him as a son.”

  2. So they get divorced, days he’s gay 2 years after but ever will remarry cause they say they are each others soulmates???? So why the heck did they get divorced???? And why the heck is he saying he’s gay if he’s still obviously in love with her, says she’s his soulmate stop and say neither will get remarried. Talk about freaking sense. I doubt he’s even really so called “gay “

    • They love each other but at not in love. He didn’t “decide” to be gay. He “decided” to live as his authentic self. Having to pretend to be something you’re not is very damaging mentally. He was miserable. Once divorced and out he and Fran got to know each other as they truly are. It’s beautiful that they are still close.
