SUMMARY
  • John Mulaney’s divorce sparked rumors about his relationship with Olivia Munn.
  • Munn’s past comments had fans raising eyebrows about their romance timeline.
  • Mulaney’s story about meeting Munn has everyone wondering what’s up with them.

When it comes to celebrity relationships, drama is practically the main course. Comedian John Mulaney and actress Olivia Munn are serving up a lot of it lately. Their romance started right after Mulaney’s divorce from artist Anna Marie Tendler, which raised more than a few eyebrows.

Fans couldn’t help but wonder if there was more to the story. Mulaney, known for his sharp wit and candid humor, faced serious questions about his relationship timeline. Did he jump into a new romance before closing the door on his marriage?

Plus, Munn’s past with Mulaney just cranked up the drama. It turns out she once had a crush on him when he was still married! With baby news dropping at the same time, fans are totally confused. Was this love at first sight or just a messy situation?

First ReasonOlivia Munn’s Past Comments About John Mulaney

The plot thickens with Olivia Munn’s past comments. She’s definitely not shy about stirring things up. Back in a 2015 interview with HuffPost Live, she admitted to being “obsessed” with John Mulaney, even while he was engaged. The X-Men star recalled a wedding where sparks flew, but not in a fairy-tale way:

I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, do you and your fiancé want to go have dinner or something and go hang out?’

Oh, the audacity! She even tried reaching out to him afterward, but didn’t get the response. Fast forward to 2021, and suddenly Munn is dating the comedian, just days after his divorce news broke. Cue the gasps! Fans couldn’t ignore the timing. Many started whispering about infidelity.

Mulaney’s support from Munn during his rehab stint seemed suspicious, too. In a now-deleted tweet, Munn posted (via the Daily Dot), “Sending SO MUCH love and support to John Mulaney. You got this.”

With Munn sporting a baby bump shortly after their romance began, it seems there’s more than meets the eye. Love, it seems, can sometimes come wrapped in a whole lot of drama.

Second ReasonJohn Mulaney’s Sketchy Timeline

Now, let’s talk about John Mulaney’s timeline. When he appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers, he laid out his story. The actor mentioned going to rehab in late 2020, which led to his divorce. He moved out of the home he shared with Tendler right after that. As the 42-year-old said:

Then, in the spring, I went to Los Angeles and met and started to date a wonderful woman named Olivia.

Then, he claimed he met Munn in spring 2021, but here’s the tea: if they started dating then, how did they suddenly have a baby by November? Yep, they have a son named Malcolm. Fans are definitely side-eyeing that one. Since we’re on the topic of their kid, let’s congratulate them on their second child, a daughter named Méi June Mulaney!

Mulaney met Munn at Seth Meyers’ wedding back in 2013, which makes things even more confusing. If they had known each other for so long, was this really a fresh start? Munn herself told the Los Angeles Times that no one truly understand their relationship. So, did Mulaney misstep on his timeline, or is this just a relationship full of errors? Only they know the real scoop.
