Celebrities Bill Hader and Ali Wong have officially called it quits on their relationship, ending a romance that spanned over two years. The news, first reported by People magazine, points to the demanding schedules of both stars as the primary reason for their amicable separation.
The Reason Behind the Split
A source close to the couple revealed to People that their packed professional calendars made sustaining the relationship too challenging. "It was too difficult to make the relationship work with Ali’s upcoming stand-up tour and Bill’s various film and TV projects this year," the insider explained. The source emphasized that the former couple remains on good terms, stating they are "very amicable" and "very much friends and still in touch." Both are now focusing on their careers and children while continuing to support each other.
A Look Back at Their Relationship Timeline
The relationship between the 47-year-old Hader and 43-year-old Wong first became public in the fall of 2022. Their romance hit a brief pause with a reported split in December of that year, but they reconciled by the following spring. Hader confirmed they were back together in an April 2023 interview with Collider, where he referred to Wong as his "girlfriend."
The pair were a fixture on the awards circuit, appearing together at events like the Emmys and the Golden Globes. A particularly memorable moment occurred at the 2024 Golden Globes, where they shared a kiss before Wong went on stage to accept an award for her role in Beef.
Wong previously shared sweet details of their courtship in her Netflix special, Single Lady. She revealed that Hader, a former Saturday Night Live star, reached out after learning of her divorce. After getting her number from a mutual friend, he texted that he had "forever" had a crush on her, asked her to be his girlfriend, and sent her flowers while she was in Europe.
Moving Forward Separately
While the exact date of their final split is not public, the New York Post published photos in late November 2025 showing what appeared to be an emotional goodbye between the two. Both individuals are recently divorced parents. Wong was married to Justin Hakuta from 2014 to 2022, and they share two children. Hader finalized his divorce from Maggie Carey in 2018; they have three daughters together. Prior to dating Wong, Hader was reportedly in a relationship with actress Anna Kendrick for over a year.
With both comedians at the peak of their careers—Wong preparing for a major stand-up tour and Hader involved in multiple film and television projects—their paths have diverged, marking the end of one of Hollywood's more private and beloved pairings.
