Jackson has been married to LaTanya since 1980. They share one daughter, Zoe, 41, who is also an Emmy-winning reality TV producer.

In March 2022, LaTanya told PEOPLE that the pair made a pact to stay together “no matter what”.

"In the beginning, we always said the most revolutionary thing that Black people could do was stay together, raise their children with the nucleus of having a father and a mother, since everybody likes to pretend that that's not the dynamic of the African American family. That it's just children out here being raised by women, which we know is false," said LaTanya. "In order to change that narrative, we made a decision to say, 'We are going to stay together no matter what. We'll figure it out.' "
