The Chapter Of Bill Hader And Ali Wong's Love Story

Bill Hader and Ali Wong are all over the internet and why wouldn't they be? The couple, who rekindled their romance not long ago, shared a sweet kiss at the Golden Globes after Wong won the Best Actress in a Limited Series category. The on-off pair have given few glimpses of their romance over the years, but it has surely never been this candid.  

Bill, an actor, comedian, writer, producer, and director, is best known as the former cast member of NBC's Saturday Night Live. Hader's excellent acting chops in Barry, Hot Rod, and The Skeleton Twins, have also garnered him much acclaim. Wong, a multi-hyphenated star herself, has gradually risen to fame, starring in Always Be My Maybe, American Housewife, and Beef, which won her a Golden Globe.  

Bill Hader and Ali Wong: How it All Started!

Hader's congratulatory kiss to his lady love at the 2023 Golden Globe took many by surprise. If you are one among those who gasped an air of surprise at the sight, then giddy up, because you're in for a lot of tea. The comedian couple go back to the year 2022.   

Both Hader and Wong were committed to their then-respective partners at a point. While Wong parted ways with her then-husband, Justin Hakuta, in April 2022, the Saturday Night Live fame broke up with his long-time girlfriend, Anna Kendrick, in June 2022.  

The heart-rending period following a breakup was when Hader and Wong first crossed paths. The fellow comedians perhaps confided in their similar situation, and hence, enjoyed a brief romance in the fall. 

A close source at the time reported that their rebound romance lasted at least two months. Their abrupt romance largely went under the radar and by the end of the year, Hader and Wong had already ended things.  

"They're just super busy with things, but [the split] was certainly amicable," an insider assured. There were no signs of post-split friendship, let alone any hint of rekindling affairs, for months. So, when the reports of their reigniting relationship surfaced in 2023, it certainly was a sweet surprise.  

Bill Hader and Ali Wong: Since 2023!  

The comedians have been keeping it low they've, undoubtedly, been official. Hader dropped the truth bomb in his Collider interview in April 2023 by casually confirming his relationship with the Beef actress. The duo went into a full candid mode not long after as pictures of them celebrating Wong's 41st birthday surfaced on the internet.   

"They have a lot in common," said an insider while referring to Hader and Wong's vocation, and their similar past. "They both have kids, they both have warped senses of humor, and their chemistry is apparently off the charts."  

Apart from a few appearances here and there, the Barry actor, and his Emmy-winning girlfriend are consciously opting to steer away from the spotlight. The Always Be My Maybe actress previously explained how she is taken aback by the sudden interest in her love life. "It's so weird. I have never, ever been snapped by paparazzi until this year," said the Golden Globe winner.   

Bill Hader's Romantic Past!  

Throughout his long and successful years in the business, Hader has romanced several women. The first time Hader dated in the public eye was with filmmaker Maggie Carey, best known for writing and directing To Do List. The two eventually got married in 2006 and welcomed three daughters, Hannah, Harper, and Hayley.   

The couple's marriage ran its course and by 2017, Hader and Carey were embroiled in a low-profile divorce. The Saturday Night Live star and his ex-wife have since been amicably co-parenting their girls. Hader was missing from the dating pool for over a year after his divorce, but in 2019, the Emmy-winning actor fueled romance rumors after a long time. 

Hader was linked with his former co-star, Rachel Bilson, in December 2019. The duo's relationship was short-lived as it ended just months after the two confirmed it. "It was probably the hardest thing I've ever done⁠," Bilson said while reflecting on her breakup with Bill. 

Hader's last girlfriend, right before he kicked off his on-off relationship with Wong, was actress-comedian, Anna Kendrick. The two had played siblings in the 2019 Christmas fantasy Noella. The pair reportedly started dating after wrapping up the film and kept their romance a secret for over a year. Their relationship was made public in early 2022 and by summer, they were already a thing of the past. 

Inside Ali Wong's Past!  

It hasn't been long since Wong acquired a reputable space in the mainstream. She was Variety's "10 Comics to Watch" in 2011 and yet, it still took the world years to take notice of Wong's quirky humor. Wong had just started dating her now ex-husband, Justin Hakuta, when her work started getting long-due recognition.  

She married Hakuta in 2014 and the two welcomed two daughters, Marri, and Nikki. Although the pair split ways in 2019, putting an end to their eight-year-long conjugal life, Wong and Justin remain tight as ever. The Beef actress even thanked her ex-husband following her big win at the Golden Globes.  

"That's right, I like to keep it peaceful and grateful and amicable," said the comedian who turned 41 last year. She added, "I really need to thank the father of my children and my best friend, Justin, for all of your love and support. "It's because of you that I'm able to be a working mother."
