Molly McNearneyisn’t justJimmy Kimmel’s wife.
What kind of expertise?
The writer and actress usually just helps script and produce “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”
McNearney and Kimmel make an undeniably endearing pair now.
Their meet-cute, however, was less than charming.
When the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”
executive producer introduced McNearney as the new employee to Kimmel, McNearney says that Kimmel hardly acknowledged her.
Then, the executive producer let on that McNearney did triathlons.
“That is really stupid!
What a waste of time,” replied Kimmel.
To be fair, when McNearney got the job she’d never seen the show.
“I had no idea who Jimmy was,” she admitted to Vanity Fair.
In fact, it took quite a while for the two to really notice each other.
Beyond simply being coworkers, both McNearney and Kimmel were in different relationships.
While it’s difficult to find much info about McNearney’s past relationships, Kimmel’s are quite public.
The comedian dated Sarah Silverman from 2002 to 2009, perIn Style.
The relationship with his future-wife blossomed soon thereafter, but all remain friends in this scenario.
After some reasonable time to heal, the exes share nothing but smiles.
She’s bright, she’s funny, she’s blonde, whatever, but come on!
It’s not fair!
She gets new, woke Jimmy, I had ‘Man Show’ Jimmy."
Talk about a storybook romance, or should we say … monologue?
Shortly thereafter, Kimmel invited McNearney over.
“I was very nervous.
I mean, this is my boss.
I was thinking, I gotta be careful here,” McNearney remembered.
“He opens the door, and the whole house smelled delicious.
He had made them all from scratch.
I couldn’t believe it.”
To this day, Kimmel enjoys cooking for his family.
McNearney admits to throwing together instant oatmeal breakfasts for the two kids she shares with Kimmel.
It’s Kimmel that fires up the stove.
McNearney describes toThe Hollywood Reporterthat about three hours after birth things seemed to change.
Said McNearney, “Then a doctor I’d never seen before came in the room and I knew.
McNearney expressed her admiration of Kimmel using their story to advocate for the health of many.
Sharee dad Kimmel in April 2022 onInstagram, “Happy 5th birthday to our little nut.
c’mon support families who need medical care.”
What’s it like in Jimmy Kimmel and Molly McNearney’s household?
My mom and dad looked up, and my dad said, ‘Oh no, someone double-booked!’
She was just hilarious and so wonderful.”
