Dylan Dreyer, meteorologist and host on NBC's Today show, filed for divorce from Brian Fichera on 10 March 2026, more than a year after the couple quietly separated in early 2025. The filing officially ends a marriage that began on 6 October 2012 and produced three sons: Calvin, Oliver, and Russell. Fichera, an NBC News cameraman and producer, now faces life after the split, with his estimated net worth ranging between $500,000 and $1.4 million.
Who Is Brian Fichera?
Brian Fichera is an American writer, producer, and cameraman for NBC News. He was born on 2 December 1986 in Easton, Massachusetts, about an hour outside Boston. He gained widespread recognition primarily through his relationship with Dreyer, with whom he worked at NBC for over a decade. Fichera has not publicly shared details about his educational background.
He joined NBC in 2012 as a cameraman for the Nightly News. Before that, he worked at WHDH, NBC's Boston affiliate, where he first met Dreyer. She was employed there as a meteorologist and in-studio technician, and they met while working the morning shift together.
Career on the Today Show and Beyond
Fichera currently works as a producer and freelance cameraman for NBC News. He also co-hosted Lunch Date with Dylan & Brian, a SiriusXM radio show for NBC. He appeared alongside Dreyer in Amanda Wakes Up and Earth Odyssey with Dylan Dreyer (2019). His income sources include his NBC salary, freelance camera work, television appearances, and radio co-hosting. Estimates suggest he earns approximately $92,460 per year from his NBC role, though this figure is not officially confirmed.
Relationship Timeline and Divorce
Fichera and Dreyer met in the early 2000s at WHDH-TV in Boston. Their friendship turned romantic after a few years. Fichera proposed in July 2011, and they married on 6 October 2012 at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross. Their sons were born on 17 December 2016 (Calvin), 2 January 2020 (Oliver), and 29 September 2021 (Russell James).
The couple separated in early 2025. On 18 July 2025, Dreyer announced the separation on Instagram. Eight months later, on 10 March 2026, she filed for divorce. Neither Dreyer nor Fichera has cited a single cause for the split. Dreyer explained that the divorce made the most sense for their family, weighing it heavily given her own family background. A source told Page Six: "The split was painful, and Dylan struggled with the idea of starting over and having this new life after being married for so many years."
Current Status and Co-Parenting
Dreyer and Fichera are no longer together. Despite the split, both have remained committed to co-parenting. A source told Us Weekly that Dreyer relocated with their three children to Long Island, where they "are thriving in their new town, and the kids are happy," and that she "loves her job and loves that she can be home with the kids after school." Dreyer and Fichera have prioritised doing "a lot together" for their sons.
During an August 2026 appearance on the Today show, Dreyer revealed that she and her three sons even went on a summer vacation with Fichera's family. She noted that removing the marital issues allowed them to build a better friendship, and the boys now see both parents happier and more relaxed. In her separation statement, Dreyer previously noted: "Most importantly, we will continue to co-parent our three wonderful boys together with nothing but love and respect for one another."
Brian Fichera's specific current residence has not been confirmed in verified reports. No credible sources have reported a new partner for him as of August 2026, and there are no confirmed reports of any illness. Joint assets with Dreyer included a house on the Upper West Side and a 1,500-square-foot apartment in Battery Park City, Manhattan, valued at over $2 million. Dreyer listed the Manhattan apartment they shared for $2.5 million ahead of the split.
