Jay Leno<\/strong><\/a> has officially been named the conservator for his wife, Mavis<\/strong>, amid her battle with dementia … TMZ has confirmed.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The former ‘Tonight Show’ host was granted the conservatorship of his longtime spouse in a hearing in Los Angeles on Tuesday, where — according to People<\/strong><\/a> — Mavis’ lawyer spoke in favor of Jay taking on the official role of looking out for his wife’s best interests.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

A judge also reportedly praised the 73-year-old comedian for the care he has provided Mavis, who Jay married in November 1980.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

This comes over a week after Mavis’ lawyer gave an update on his client’s health — where it was revealed she is seriously struggling with her memory due to advanced dementia, failing to remember her birthday or recognize her husband at times.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

As we reported … the TV personality simply wanted to set up financial protections<\/strong><\/a> for his wife in the instance he predeceases her.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

The couple shares no children, with Mavis’ next of kin being her brother, Rikki Nicholson<\/strong> — who reportedly lives next door. Despite her health struggles, Mavis continues to support her husband, having recently attended<\/strong><\/a> one of Jay’s comedy shows in L.A.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
