Ali Wong Makes RARE Comment About Bill Hader Romance
Bill Hader will always be Ali Wong 's definitely.
After he didn't walk the red carpet alongside the Beef star at the 2025 Golden Globes , the Saturday Night Live alum shut down speculation that it was because the couple had called it quits.
“Bill was not able to attend the Globes due to a pre-existing eye condition that flared up and he was advised by his doctor to stay home and rest,” a rep for Bill told People Jan. 10. “He and Ali are still together.”
Ali and Bill—who dating briefly in 2022 before rekindling their romance in April 2023 —fueled breakup rumors after Ali posed alone on the Golden Globes red carpet earlier this month and didn't thank him while accepting the award for Best Performance in Stand-Up Comedy on Television for her performance in the Netflix special, Single Lady .
“I come from San Francisco, and that's where I started doing stand-up,” she said during her speech at The Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles Jan. 5. “And I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for all the stage time that I got there and all the practice I got to become a stand-up comedian."
Following her speech—which also included shoutouts to SF Punchline Comedy Club member Molly Schminke and her best friend Mia Serafino —fans began questioning whether the pair had parted ways, especially considering they had a PDA-filled date night at the ceremony in 2024.
"Isn't Ali Wong dating Bill Hader?" one user wrote on X Jan. 5. "Did they break up or is he busy? Weren't the together all last year? #GoldenGlobes."

Another added , "Ali wong win and bill hader is still nowhere to be found."
And while Ali—who announced her breakup from ex-husband Justin Hakuta in April 2022, six months before sparking romance rumors with Bill—addressed their current relationship status, she has previously detailed the grand gesture Bill made before they started dating.
"I get a phone call from this guy who I met at a dinner party in the past, and he got my number from a mutual friend," the Always Be My Maybe actress explained during her May 2024 Netflix Is a Joke Fest show, per Rolling Stone . "He was like, ‘Hey, I just happened to hear the news about your divorce, and I've had a crush on you forever. I actually told my best friend years ago that you were my dream girl, and I know it sounds crazy, but I want you to be my girlfriend.'"

Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel
When they saw each other at the 2007 Golden Globes, their "love connection" was palpable, according to Jessica's 7th Heaven costar Beverley Mitchell . "I was like, 'OK, this is happening.'"
After several years together, however, they released a joint statement in March 2011 confirming their mututal decison "to part ways."
But it was clear they still had feelings for each other .
Soon enough, the pair reconciled and tied the knot in October 2012. They welcomed son Silas on April 8, 2015, and his brother Phineas in July 2020.
"We have similar values," Jessica told Marie Claire in 2017. "We believe in loyalty, honesty. We like to have fun. We like a lot of the same things. Also, in the business, we're all very career-oriented, and you have to be a little selfish. I understand that about my peers—about being focused and driven—and if you can find that and someone who shares the same values as you, it's like, 'Score!'"
Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez
No one had the resurrection of Bennifer on their bingo card heading into 2021.

Ben and J.Lo saw their previous commitment and raised it a marriage, tying the knot in Las Vegas on July 16, 2022, and celebrating with a big bash in Georgia a month later.

Prince William & Kate Middleton
As reports of an imminent engagement started to make the rounds in the U.K. in early 2007, William broke up with his college sweetheart after four years together.
That June, however, he invited Kate to a costume party at his barracks in Dorset (his first military posting was with the Blues and Royals of the British Army's Household Cavalry) and apparently her sexy nurse outfit was the shot in the arm the future king needed .
A few years later, William proposed with the 12-carat Ceylon sapphire ring that belonged to his late mother, Princess Diana , and the couple's engagement was announced Nov. 16, 2010.
When looking back at their brief split, William said in their first joint interview, "We were both very young. We were both finding ourselves and being different characters. It was very much trying to find our own way and we were growing up so it was just a bit of space, and it worked out for the better."
Kate admitted she "wasn't very happy about it" at the time, but ultimately it made her "a stronger person."
The knot was tied April 29, 2011 .
Pink & Carey Hart
The singer and the motocross racer started dating in 2001 after meeting at the Summer X Games. They married in 2006, but two years later ended up taking an 11-month break.
"We were working all the time; there was so much time between our visits," Pink explained their rationale to Redbook. "Carey would see me for five days and be gone for six weeks. We'd try to fix everything in those five days—you just can't do that."
The lusty pair reunited when Pink made Carey a photo album of old cards and pictures, showed him her unsigned divorce papers and wore his favorite pair of lingerie in a hotel suite in Las Vegas.
They welcomed daughter Willow June 2, 2011, and son Jameson Dec. 26, 2016.

Chrissy Teigen & John Legend
Even these two had some ups and downs before taking their vows on Sept. 14, 2013.
After meeting on the set of Legend's "Stereo" music video in 2006, the pair quickly coupled up, but a year later the singer started feeling overwhelmed.
"I was really stressed and busy," he told The Guardian in 2017 of that almost-pivotal time. "I was just like: 'I'd just be happier single right now,' and she was like: 'No.'"
So that was cleared up in the course of a day.
They've since become parents to Luna (April 17, 2016), Miles (May 16, 2018), Esti (Jan. 13, 2023) and Wren (June 19, 2023, via surrogate).
