Ali Wong and Justin Hakuta, who were married for nearly a decade, surprised fans with their 2022 split. The couple met in 2010, got married in 2014, and welcomed two children in 2015 and 2017. Wong often incorporated aspects of their life into her stand-up comedy, joking about trapping Hakuta when she learned about his Harvard Business School education.<\/p>\n
Despite their divorce in December 2023, Wong and Hakuta remain good friends and partners in business. Hakuta continues to serve as Wong\u2019s tour manager, actively participating in various aspects of the tour, including handling merchandise sales. He left his high-flying tech executive role to be with Wong on tour, and even post-split, he joins the tour primarily to stay close to their children.<\/p>\n
Their divorce is described as \u201cunconventional,\u201d with Wong emphasizing the deep and enduring friendship they share. She mentioned in an interview that their relationship is unconventional, and even in her stand-up comedy, Hakuta\u2019s opinion holds significant weight. Wong publicly acknowledged Hakuta in her acceptance speech at the 2024 Golden Globes, thanking him for his love and support. She expressed the importance of maintaining a peaceful, grateful, and amicable relationship with him, highlighting that he is the father of her children and her best friend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
