In collaboration with the SABC, in 2019 7de Laan developed a highly publicized storyline for Jacobs' character Diederik. Diederik survived a plane crash, where he was injured. He became addicted to drugs and contracted HIV. The real-life physician Dr Sindisiwe van Zyl portrayed herself and played Diederik's doctor. The 7de Laan HIV Awareness Campaign was launched because South Africa has a HIV epidemic, due to a lack of education and misguided beliefs about the disease.

In November 2008 Jacobs and his then fiancée, Marissa Vosloo, fell victim to a carjacking at a petrol station at Paulshof in northern Johannesburg. The hijacker threatened the couple using a 9mm pistol and stole their vehicle. Nobody was injured.

On Saturday, 6 December 2008, Jacobs and Vosloo were married in an African setting in a Shebeen-themed wedding. Their first daughter, Nua Audrey Esthe Jacobs, was born on 22 January 2010. Their second daughter, Tali Anah Ella Jacobs, was born on 14 March 2013.

Jacobs joined in the cast of 7de Laan as Diederik Greyling (Diedie) in November 2006. 7de Laan is an Afrikaans soap opera with some English and Zulu dialogue and English subtitles.
