Mayra Moreno opens up about her close working relationship with the late news anchor Chauncy Glover, offering insights into their years together. The unexpected death of KCAL news anchor Chauncy Glover at the age of 39 has left a profound impact on his colleagues, friends, and the broader community. Widely admired for his dedication to journalism and his warm on-screen presence, Glover was also known for his deep connections with his workmates.

Among those closest to him was his “work wife” and long-time peer, Mayra Moreno, who has shared emotional tributes to honor his memory. In an Instagram post on November 6, 2024, Moreno expressed her devastation, writing, “An unexpected loss. My heart is broken. @chauncyglover ! .” Alongside her message, she posted a series of photos that captured memorable moments between the two.

These images highlighted their close bond and playful friendship, including shots of the pair on a football field, where Moreno playfully reached out to tag Glover, who was holding a football.

Moreno openly expressed her struggle to find the right words. “I have been going over and over in my head trying to find the right words but honestly nothing I type will make sense right now. I have so many thoughts and memories I can’t make it flow properly. So if you have time to read. This will be all over the place and long: sorry [sic]!”

Another photo featured them standing side-by-side on the news set, dressed in matching blue outfits, reflecting their professional synergy. In a humorous image, Glover wore a large hat and mustache filter while Moreno laughed, showcasing the joy they found in each other’s company. On November 7, Moreno penned a more extensive and touching message along with a throwback video where she and Glover exchanged light-hearted banter about their favorite holiday movies and gifts. The lengthy caption provided a window into their unique friendship and the depth of their connection.

In her heartfelt note, Moreno recounted Glover’s love for Houston and his commitment to his nonprofit organization, which aimed to empower young people and make a positive difference. “Chauncy LOVED Houston and he LOVED his tribe, his family, his friends. He loved his nonprofit: The Chauncy Glover Project. He wanted to empower youth and he loved making a difference [sic],” she wrote, emphasizing his dedication to his community and his passion for giving back.

Moreno also looked back on their collective experiences and the close bond they developed over “8 plus years.” She described how they confided in each other, sharing “stories, laughs, ugly cries and more.” Their connection extended beyond the screen, and Moreno cherished the authenticity of their friendship, saying, “What came out on screen was genuine, just like this video I wanted to share. This video basically sums up how we were.”
