Bill Hader and his girlfriend, Ali Wong, were seen taking a rare romantic stroll together. They were spotted walking through Central Park in New York City on Monday, April 1, looking happy as they strolled past the lush green grass.
Hader, who is 45 years old, was seen wearing a blue sweatshirt under a brown jacket, while Wong, who is 41, had on a white scarf paired with a black trenchcoat.
The comedians were initially rumored to be dating towards the end of 2022. They briefly broke up later that same year. However, in April 2023, Hader suggested that they had reconciled and were back together.
Hader told Collider that he and his girlfriend realized he hadn't taken a vacation in 10 years. They had gone to San Francisco together, but it didn't feel like a real vacation. He didn't mention his girlfriend's name. He expressed his need for a vacation to relax and recharge by immersing himself in watching and reading.
Later on, Hader's representative confirmed to We that he and his girlfriend had resolved any issues they may have had.
During a chat with Variety in May 2023, Wong talked about her romantic life and how it felt weird to have so much focus on her relationships after her split from Justin Hakuta. She admitted, "It's been quite a change."

She continued by sharing how her new dating situation influenced her comedy routine while getting ready for her upcoming tour. "Before, I would practice my jokes as if I were still single," she mentioned. "It feels weird now that my romantic life is out in the open. My stand-up act is a version of the truth for me - it doesn't show my entire self. To honor my relationship, I need to practice talking about it in the past tense."
Ahead of the 2023 Emmy Awards earlier this year, Wong opened up about her relationship with Hader. Speaking to Access Hollywood in January, she mentioned that they prefer to keep their relationship private. Despite being together for a while, many people were unaware of their relationship.
Wong also shared that both she and Hader are in their 40s and are parents. Wong has two daughters, Mari (8) and Nikki (6), with her husband Hakuta (41). Hader, on the other hand, has three daughters, Hannah (14), Harper (11), and Hayley (9), from his previous marriage to Maggie Carey.
Fans at the Emmys were treated to a rare display of affection between Hader and Wong. The Beef star, winning the award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie for her role as Amy Lau, shared a sweet kiss with the Saturday Night Live alum as she accepted her award.
During her emotional acceptance speech, Wong expressed gratitude to her parents and lovingly referred to her daughters as her “everything.” As Hader watched his girlfriend on stage, he was visibly moved to tears.
That month, a source told We exclusively that the couple has a strong foundation and are looking forward to building a future together.
The insider revealed that marriage is definitely a possibility for them. Friends believe that they are in it for the long haul, as they are comfortable and deeply in love with each other. They are now at a point where they are prepared to merge their families.
