Mulaney asked for a divorce from Tendler in April 2021, which came as a shock to many, as even Tendler admitted she didn't see it coming.
“I am heartbroken that John has decided to end our marriage,” Tendler said in a statement at the time. “I wish him support and success as he continues his recovery.”
A spokesperson for Mulaney later confirmed the news to but added, “John will not have any further comment as he continues to focus on his recovery and getting back to work.”
She went on to say: "So how does one digest grief? How do we metabolize trauma, collective and individual? How, precisely, do we sit with, in order to move through?
"We call our friends; we allow ourselves to laugh. We cry in parked cars. We work; we rest. We throw plates just to watch them break; we make things with our hands.
"We write, we read, we watch movies. We listen to music. We run, or walk, or sprint, or dance. We ask for help or learn to ask for help. We love or learn to love again."
She concluded by saying: "Here we all are, surviving and creating and laughing at tik tok videos. So long 2021. For better or worse I will carry a piece of you with me forever."
Did John Mulaney have a child with Olivia Munn?
On September 7, during an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Mulaney announced he was expecting a child with Olivia Munn.
Mulaney gushed about his whirlwind romance with Munn and shared how she's been supportive in his path to recovery after he relapsed on drugs last year and checked into rehab.
"I got into this relationship that's been really beautiful with someone incredible who has dealt with the non-coked-up Bambi version of me and that's been very incredible.
"She's kind of held my hand through that hell and we are having a baby together," Mulaney announced.
"I was nervous when I was about to say the news. That's why I looked down and then I looked up," he added to Meyers. "I'm going to be a dad."
Mulaney revealed that he met Munn for the first time at Meyers' wedding to Alexi Ashe back in 2013.
"So it's nice something good came out of the wedding," Mulaney joked.
"That's just a clean good joke all around… And [Olivia] got to date me right out of recovery which is what they call a reverse catch. It is a very, very lucky thing to have met this woman."
John Mulaney and Olivia Munn reportedly welcomed their first child together, a son, on November 24, 2021.
