Relationships between comedians are both funny-weird, and funny-haha, it seems safe to assume. The latest example? Ali Wong and Bill Hader are dating again, as the Barry star’s rep confirmed to Page Six the two are back together after reportedly splitting due to busy schedules last fall.

Hader hinted at the couple’s reunion in a recent interview with Collider, during which he employed the age-old “my girlfriend” tactic without naming names, though it has since been confirmed he was referring to Wong. “My girlfriend and I were just figuring out that I haven’t had a vacation in 10 years,” he said. “I went with her to San Francisco, but that doesn’t really count. So, I’m going to have a vacation. I need to go into sponge mode, where I’m watching stuff and reading.”

Ah, yes, the old “watching stuff and reading” chillcation, and the “doesn’t count” trips. Hader said he’s tried meditating to cleanse his vibe, but “every time I sit down to meditate, I end up passing out and falling asleep.” Who among us? While science has not yet provided us with a definitive checklist of what qualifies a vacation as “real,” one might assume that travel around family obligations like weddings, graduations, b’nai mitzvahs, and their ilk, no matter how lovely the location or tasty the sourdough. Sitting on a beach and staring dead-eyed at the ocean doesn’t hit quite the same when you know you’re going to have to watch your grandmother drop ice cubes in her Riesling later. Work trips don’t count, either, which spells bad news for creatives like Wong and Hader, who don’t just perform, but are constantly developing their own projects and ideas. “Watching stuff and reading” is fun, but also…kind of work. After all, remember where Lin-Manuel Miranda was when he wrote King George’s “You’ll Be Back” from Hamilton? That would be his honeymoon, what should arguably be the chillest, non-workiest, realest vacation imaginable. Which is to say, good luck enjoying the beach.

Wong has recently been making headlines for her performance as a rage-fueled houseplant mogul in Netflix’s Beef, but broke into public consciousness for her stand-up, much of which discussed her relationship with then-husband Justin Hakuta. The pair announced their divorce in April 2022, and Wong recently said they are “best friends” and that they’re experiencing an “unusual divorce,” even planning to travel together with their two young daughters for her next stand-up tour, which she has dubbed “The Single Lady Tour.” 

Hader, meanwhile, stars in Barry, the fourth season of which recently premiered. He was formerly linked to stars such as Rachel Bilson, who revealed to the world that she missed “his big dick,” and Anna Kendrick, who went on a healing yacht journey in the wake of her breakup with Hader. Hader was also previously married to writer-director Maggie Carey, with whom he shares three daughters.

Vanity Fair has reached out to reps for both Hader and Wong, who didn’t immediately return requests for comment.
