Ali Wong shared how Bill Hader proposed to her during her performance at the Netflix is a Joke festival on Sunday, May 12. The 42-year-old comedian revealed that Bill, 45, approached her shortly after their divorce and made a beautiful gesture that won her heart.
The «Biff» actress said that before their divorce, she met Bill for dinner. After news of her divorce became public, she said he called her. «He said, 'Hi, I accidentally heard about your divorce, and I’ve secretly been in love with you for a long time. I even told my best friend ten years ago that you were my dream girl, and I know it sounds crazy, but I want you to be my girlfriend'», - she said, according to E! News.
Despite Bill’s sweet call, Ali admitted that she wanted to make the most of dating apps after signing up and creating her profile. «I said, 'I just paid $ 25. You seem very nice, but I need to get my money’s worth'», - she told the audience.
Ali shared that after Bill’s call, she went on vacation to Europe, and during her stay, the «Barry» actor sent flowers to every hotel she stayed at. She said that this gesture won her over, but some of her male friends did not approve. Nevertheless, Ali joked about her male friends for their negative reviews. «Men have become so cheap and lazy: when a guy treats someone nicely, makes a romantic gesture, it must be a symptom of an undiagnosed mental illness», - she said.
Ali split from her husband Justin Hakuta in April 2022. Bill and Ali have been dating since late 2022, and they confirmed their relationship by kissing in April 2023. They made their red carpet debut at the Golden Globes ceremony in January 2024
