TLC's Long Lost Family co-host Chris Jacobs opened up about his own personal adoption story on TLC's website. "I was 22 months old when I was adopted into a fantastic family who was nothing but supportive of me my entire life," he said. When he began searching for his biological mother in his early 20s, his family "was just so great about it and so supportive."
According to Jacobs, finding his birth mother was actually "very easy." He explained, "I contacted an adoption location service, and, as it turned out, my mom had registered at the exact same service four years earlier when I was 18. They put us right together."
Jacobs and his birth mom reunited in 1993, and they've "been able to develop and grow a fantastic relationship ever since then." He explained, "My story is truly a success story when it comes to adopted kids reuniting with their birth families. ... It was 23 years ago now, and we still talk almost every day." He noted, "It's been great, I wish everybody out there in the same situation the best of luck."
