Ali Wong and her husband split in 2022. Then a famous man she hardly knew began 'wooing' her.

When comedian Ali Wong split from her husband, several men slid into her DMs.

Among them was a fellow comedian with a major confession to share: he had been crushing on her "forever".

It was Bill Hader.

For two years, the couple captured our hearts with appearances at industry events and special mentions in speeches. But now, the comedy power couple have gone their separate ways, People reports.

Here's everything we know about the former couple's adorable beginnings, and their split.

Hader pursued Wong after her divorce. 

Wong divorced her husband of eight years, Justin Hakuta in September 2022. In her Netflix special Single Lady, she talks candidly about ins and outs of adjusting to single life.

In a memorable part, she discusses her life post-divorce and how she started to receive a lot of attention from men who were interested once the news of her split broke. 

"I didn't expect the news of my divorce to be so widespread and public," Wong said.

"I felt really embarrassed and ashamed, but I didn't realise that all of these media outlets were acting like a Bat-Signal, letting all potentially interested men know that I was suddenly available. I've never been pursued this much in my life."

Turns out, Hader was among those waiting for that signal in the sky.

When Hader found out about the divorce, he got her details from a mutual friend and called her.

"'Hey, Ali. I just happened to hear the news of your divorce today, and I gotta tell you… I'm excited,'" Wong remembered the actor saying.

"'I am, Ali, because, look, I have had a crush on you forever, and I actually told my best friend years ago that you were my dream girl. And I know this sounds crazy, but, uh, I want you to be my girlfriend," she said. 

"Shortly after that phone call, I take off to Europe," she continued. "I arrive in London and discovered that this man had sent me a bouquet of flowers."

And that's not all. Hader continued to send flowers to several European cities where Wong was touring. I mean, talk about romance. 

A short breakup. 

While we've heard of the fairytale start to Wong and Hader's relationship, it wasn't always sunshine and rainbows for the two. 

In fact, after dating for a short while in 2022, the couple briefly parted ways. At the time, their relationship was quite private, and the two seemed to prefer it that way. 

However, fans were elated when they reunited.

Hader and Wong were seen at various events together, including the 2024 Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards, as well as the Emmys.

Hader gave Wong a kiss, and watched on supportively as Wong accepted various awards, including an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for her performance in Beef.

During her Los Angeles residency at the Netflix Is a Joke Festival, Hader actually joined Wong on stage and had some beautiful words to say about his partner. 

"I got to go on the road [with her] and I watched her work as she goes up, she tries these things…she's taking tons of notes," Hader said. "The amount of work that goes into making this look so effortless, and she just sold out 12 nights at The Wiltern."

Bonding over single parenthood. 

Both Hader and Wong are both divorced and have their own children from their respective relationships. Wong is the mother of two daughters, while Hader has three daughters.

When asked about her relationship in January 2024, Wong briefly spoke to the connection they share as a result of the stage of life they are both in. 

"It's just also, like, we're both, like, in our 40s and parents," Wong told Access Hollywood.

Splitting after two years.

Despite their whirlwind romance and the subsequent blending of their two families, the relationship has reportedly come to a close. Sad news for fans of the couple (of which there are many).

While reps for the comedians are yet to comment on the split, a source told People the pair struggled to find time together while navigating their busy schedules and family life.

"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 said.

Now, "they're focusing on their work and kids, while continuing to support and root for each other."

Despite the end of their romance, things are reportedly "very amicable" between the two.

"They are very much friends and still in touch," the source said.
