Betty Robison, the long‑time co‑host and wife of American televangelist James Robison, has stepped into the spotlight following his death at the age of 82 in May 2026. Her decades‑long partnership with the founder of LIFE Outreach International and co‑host of the daily Christian television programme 'LIFE Today' has made her a familiar figure across global Christian broadcasting networks and online platforms.
Born Betty Freeman, she is an author, speaker and television host who has helped shape the identity of the couple's ministry over more than 60 years. She grew up in a working‑class Christian family in Texas and later moved with her parents to Pasadena, where they attended the Baptist church led by Rev HD Hale, the man who had earlier taken in her future husband as a child.
