Two well-known public figures share this name. Adriana Diaz is an American television journalist for CBS News and co-host of CBS Saturday Morning. Adriana Díaz is also a Puerto Rican professional table tennis player who reached world No. 9 in March 2022.
Most searches for “Adriana Diaz CBS,” “husband,” “baby,” “salary” and “height” point to the journalist. Searches for “Adriana Diaz table tennis,” “ranking” and “equipment” point to the athlete. Since the two profiles get mixed together online, this guide separates them.
The article covers age, family, career, height, pay and current status for both women. It flags where sources disagree and separates confirmed facts from unverified estimates. Several popular biography sites contradict each other, so uncertain details are labeled.

| Detail | Information |
| Date of Birth | November 29, 1984 |
| Current Age | 41 |
| Birthplace | New York City |
| Evidence Status | Reported (Wikipedia); conflicting on low-quality sites |
CBS’s official biography does not list a birth date. This article uses the Wikipedia date and treats the others as unverified.
Adriana Diaz’s Husband
Her spouse is Bryan Smith. He is reported to be a cardiologist at the University of Chicago Medical Center. Neither CBS nor Wikipedia goes into detail on his career.
In a June 2020 Vogue interview, Diaz said her older brother and Smith’s older sister suggested they meet. The couple’s wedding year is disputed.
Marriage Timeline
| Year | Event | Status |
| 2020 | Marriage | Listed on Wikipedia (m. 2020) |
| 2015 or 2019 | Alternate wedding dates | Conflicting on low-quality sites |
| 2020 | Wedding reported at a Chicago church | Reported as July 9, 2020 |
This article treats the marriage as confirmed and the exact date as unresolved. No reliable report of an affair, separation or divorce turned up in the sources reviewed. Searches for “cheating” or “divorce” in connection with Diaz did not produce credible reporting, so none of that is presented as fact.
Does Adriana Diaz Have a Baby?
Yes. Wikipedia lists two children. Details on the children come mostly from social media posts and secondary sites, so only the general facts are given here.
- She reportedly had a daughter in October 2021.
- Secondary reports say she later announced a second pregnancy and a baby boy.
- Reports of a maternity leave beginning around the start of 2026 come from a weak source and are unconfirmed.
Her children’s names and other private details are not covered here.
Adriana Diaz’s Family and Ethnicity
She is a New York City native of Dominican heritage who speaks Spanish, French and Mandarin. Some secondary sites say her parents were Dominican immigrants and that she grew up in the Bronx. Her parents’ identities are not documented in reliable public sources.

She was 15 when she qualified for the Rio 2016 Olympics and became the first Puerto Rican singles gold medallist in the sport at the 2019 Pan American Games. She became the best-ranked woman from Latin America of all time. She is the daughter of a table tennis family from Utuado.
