The Reason Jimmy Kimmel Allegedly Left His First Wife

Talk show host Jimmy Kimmel was lucky enough to meet his current wife, Molly McNearny, while working on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” They reportedly worked together for a few years before they dated, because both of them were in other relationships.

Kimmel’s marriage to McNearny isn’t his first, though, because he was previously married to Gina Maddy for 14 years. The college sweethearts were married in 1988 and have two children, but they divorced in 2003.

Kimmel and Sarah Silverman began openly dating after his divorce, but there was a lot of speculation that he had been seeing Silverman for some time before. The pair dated until 2009, when they decided to just be friends.
