John Mulaney's divorce from wife Anna Marie Tendler finalized after his stint in rehab following drug & alcohol relapse

JOHN Mulaney and Anna Marie Tendler's divorce is finalized roughly four months after the actor filed following his short stay in rehab for an addiction to drugs and alcohol.

The comic checked himself into a facility in December 2020 following a relapse.


TMZ broke the news on Thursday, citing a legal filing.

The divorce was finalized in New York City, according to the outlet.

John and Anna Marie married in July 2014.

The couple called it quits in October 2020 – two months before John checked into rehab voluntarily.

They had no children together.

It's unclear, according to TMZ's reporting, whether a prenup was involved.

MOVING ON

Shortly after he and Anna Marie announced their split, John was linked to Olivia Munn.

He confirmed their relationship during a television appearance in September, announcing that she was pregnant with his child.

John revealed during the appearance: "In the spring, I went to Los Angeles, and met and started to date a wonderful woman named Olivia – Olivia Munn.

"And we're having a baby together…I'm going to be a dad. We're both really, really happy."

TMZ exclusively confirmed that Olivia gave birth to their son, Malcom Hiêp Mulaney, on November 24.

The baby is a first for both John and Olivia.

MARRIAGE OVER

John checked into a rehab facility in Pennsylvania for 60 days of treatment in December 2020.

He was treated for an addiction to cocaine and alcohol.

After his stint in rehab, Page Six reported that John asked his wife for a divorce.

While he made the request in February, he didn't officially file until July.

Anna released a statement via a spokesperson, saying: "I am heartbroken that John has decided to end our marriage.

"I wish him support and success as he continues his recovery."

JOHN'S STRUGGLES

John was open with fans about his struggles with addiction.

He said at the time: "I didn't want an intervention. At that moment in time, I wanted to continue using drugs.

"Sitting here tonight, I'm so grateful to you and to everyone there for saving my life.

"You guys saved me from drugs and Olivia and this baby have helped save me from myself and this early journey of recovery. I don't have a joke for that."
