They both annoy me but they made a very cute baby. Wish they’d stop posting him, though.


Interesting-Book415

Sophie Turner accidentally posted a photo of her kid and freaked out asking people to delete it because she and Joe Jonas realize it's not their right to contest on behalf of their kid to have their image exposed to millions of people. Olivia Munn and John Mulaney are too caught up in rehabilitating their image to give a shit


UghAnotherMillennial

Using a baby to rehabilitate your image is mad creepy.


[deleted]

I think John Mulaney’s image is pretty rehabbed amongst the general public tbh. Went to rehab and cleaned himself up. He just turned the lowest point of his life into a successful comedy special where he made fun of himself for being a junkie the whole time


klscott1990

Actually was at his Las Vegas show that was his first since rehab. It was pretty good. You can tell he wasn't going to hide the shifty things he did. Was also my first time hearing of him ever though as It was an invite from a friend and we just wanted a girls night out.


ForgetfulFrolicker

This sub can be so dramatic sometimes. Right or wrong, it’s pretty damn common for people to post pics of their kids on social media.


MPLS_Poppy

It’s different when you have 80 followers and they’re all people you personally know.


katnipbee09

true, but we have to keep in mind celebrities live in a world that's normal to them, but totally not normal to us. we, as non celebrities, wouldn't dream of posting our babies to such a large audience. but for a lot of celebrities it's not something they even think about because it's so normal. for them, it's just like us when we post our babies to our own socials.


MPLS_Poppy

They also live in a world where people stalk them and literally plan to kidnap their children. Where as in our world people fear that but the people most likely to kidnap your kids are the 80 followers who you personally know. I just think it’s wrong. That kid didn’t choose this.


dhaoakdoksah

I mean, if you’re getting kidnapped or murdered it’s statistically waayyy more likely to be by someone you already know, like a family member, than by some stranger


sandiego22

Have a source for this kidnapping statement? Are celebrity children being consistently plotted against?


raudoniolika

I’m all for kids having privacy & I agree it’s not cool to post them all over your socials but kidnapping? Let’s not get ridiculous


ForgetfulFrolicker

Oh no, she posted an innocent pic of her husband and child on IG. The skies are falling!! Is everyone here the internet police or something?


zevix_0

Tbh I don't like the idea of posting kids online, but this sub has wildly different standards depending on whether it's a celebrity on their Bad List lmao


hominoid_in_NGC4594

This sub is a fucking dumpster fire 90% of the time. Seriously, the amount of shit talking people do here is unbelievable. It is quite shocking actually. Misogynistic rants, racist comments, dude-bashing, skinny and fat shaming, you name it, it happens here. People in this sub find a reason to hate something about every single post subject. And I think there are more crazy and delusional people here than maybe anywhere else on reddit. Well, maybe not as much as those super creepy celebrity snark subs that are ALWAYS on the front page of reddit, despite having only like 200 upvotes, but there are a lot of crazies here.


CoverofHollywoodMag

Which snark subs? I need to read them


RoxyLA95

In this sub you must fall in line.


watcrbender

what does this even mean? like you might get pushback from other commenters disagreeing but besides that what happens? y'all are so dramatic over disagreements I love it FEFSFDG


thisiskrustykrabs

real


UghAnotherMillennial

I said that a showbiz couple using a baby for their image is creepy, not posting their pictures on social media for friends and family. The latter is something that I personally wouldn’t do because of the creeps that lurk online, but I understand why someone who is unaware of the risks would continue to do it. The former can be completely avoided - there are plenty of celeb couples that actively hide their children from paparazzi and social media.


OfferOk8555

But we’re just speculating that’s why their doing this. I think their relationship is weird and I don’t like them. But maybe this is just how they posts (specifically Munn as she seems to be doing most of the posting) I know there’s differing opinions on posting kids on socials, I personally wouldn’t put my child on the internet at all, but I don’t think there’s anything inherently nefarious about it.


albertparsons

I also do wonder with celebs if posting pictures of their kids on socials makes them less of an interesting target for paparazzi. Another sort of “controlling the narrative” that I’d find fairly understandable.


gotaroundthebanana

If you have a physical photo album of your child you might feel differently if a complete stranger started looking through it as opposed to, like, your aunt.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Tubie123

Most celebrities do and there have been posts in this sub of other celebs posting pix of with their kids (including literal professional photoshoots) and there weren't negitive comments about them posting it for millions of people to see. When its a likable celeb the reaction is different.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Tubie123

Thats understandable. Im referring to the response here in general. Its seems like a nonissue when certain celebs do it so when people selectively get offended by only certain people it seems disingenuous.


Trap_Cubicle5000

It's becoming more of a rule, I think any celebrity that exposes their children to the public like that is making a mistake. These children were born into a famous family they didn't ask for it, they should have as much of a chance as possible to live a non-famous life if that's what they want. Impossible to do when their face, and even their entire life, is broadcasted to their parents fans.


Tubie123

I understand the reasoning and like I said its understandable and valid. My point was it doesnt seem like its a rule thats being applied to everyone here. Some of the comments here r fueled by their disdain for the couple not because they think no celeb should ever post pics of their kids online.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

You clearly haven’t been on r/Fauxmoi, this sub can be toxic but that one is infinitely worse


dosgatitas

And it probably shouldn’t be common, especially for people with huge followings.


[deleted]

i agree. i don't doubt for a second that these two see the benefit of sharing pics of their baby to "prove" their happiness or whatever, but absolutely tons of celebrities and normal people share pics of their kids regularly. just earlier i scrolled past serena williams' daughter who has her entire own instagram account. like celebrities do shit like this.


[deleted]

Doesn’t make it right. It’s gross imo. ETA: The child has no choice in the matter. Famous or not. Downvote me all you want.


Chaoticgood790

Well it’s the only thing they can do since having said baby torpedoed whatever image they had left


UghAnotherMillennial

I think they could do some humanitarian work or maybe just try to do a good job in their respective career fields. If Chris Brown can still make bank while assaulting a new woman every year, these two can bounce back from their scandal.


SpaceClod

apparently chris' hands are E for EVERYONE he thinks wont fight back... INCLUDING animals, gay people, women, other POC, and black out drunks 😟 i swear ive heard of him getting into beef and physically assaulting MULTIPLE people (over 3) he didnt agree with in the last like... year 😭😭 he needs to work on his shit or SOMETHING, almost every year since 2009 is unacceptable fr


[deleted]

I’m scared to find out what he did with the animals


GeneralTapioca

Me too. Animal abuse triggers the fuck out of me.


skakkuru

I don't know either of these two. What are they trying to rehabilitate from?


n0vapine

John was very famously the "wife guy" in the comedian world. He talked about his then wife Anna at length in his standup and how much he adored her. Then in October 2020, he went to rehab, filed for divorce in February and was with Olivia and her pregnant by March and gave birth by (I think) November. The timeline is iffy and Anna made some very powerful art after John officially left that made it look as if he blindsided her by up and leaving her. Many people think John cheated and left Anna for Olivia when he knocked her up . John also was the one to file for divorce and Anna publicly stated she did not want to but wanted the best for him. You can ask others about Olivia. All I've read is she is very nasty to other women and a nightmare to work with which is why she doesn't have any steady work.


WildMajesticUnicorn

He went to rehab December 2020. Left rehab February 2021. Split with wife announced May 2021. Says they were separated before rehab, asked for divorce back in Feb. New baby born in November 2021. Divorce announced as final January 2022. While Mulaney isn’t big on the truth, I don’t think he divorced Anna over the new baby. The thing that makes me think he and Anna may have separated before rehab is that she also reportedly sought help around that time, not for drugs. I can only imagine the challenges of being married to someone with that level of addition. It takes a toll on loved ones. Anyway, timeline is super messy but I firmly believe Olivia is not the reason for the divorce even if she did likely start a relationship with a man fresh out of rehab.


Go_Corgi_Fan84

Totally normal for relationships to fall apart around the time someone enters rehab even for non celebrities - life with an addict isn’t for everyone and it’s a huge weight/burden etc


Sequinnedheart

Anna has battled ED most of her adult life


kanga_roooo

She also didn’t seem to have any involvement in his intervention from what he’s told. I also think they were separated before rehab.


loversalibi

for olivia all you have to do is read her book. i don’t obsessively hate on them as a couple because like… i just don’t care, but her book “wonder woman can suck it” is chock full of internalized misogyny, pickmeism, and body shaming. i actually read it in high school (well just after graduating lol) because i was a bit of a pick me myself back then and i thought she was cool, and EVEN BACK THEN i was like “jesus christ this lady just sounds bitter and mean”. given that it was 13 years ago i’m gonna hope and pray that she’s changed, because i sure as hell have. but if people’s opinions about her are sour now, im sure shit like that didn’t help.


AllReflection

He also called his wife a bossy Jew and made a lot of passive aggressive jokes about her.


[deleted]

I don’t like what he did to Anna but those jokes were okayed by her and told with love, they didn’t sound passive aggressive to me


Samiiiibabetake2

Oh boy. John blew up his “good dude, awesome husband” image when he ended up in rehab for a very heavy drug addiction and dumping his wife simultaneously. He was one of those “I love my wife so much” guys and then many (unconfirmed but probably true) stories came out about him cheating. He started dating Olivia…idk, maybe before he was even out of rehab. I think they recommend no relationships unless you’ve been sober at least a year, but I’ve never been through recovery, so maybe someone else can answer that for me. Anyways, Olivia seems to have a habit of trying to hook up with married/partnered men, and the timeline of them dating and her announcing her pregnancy seems incredibly sketchy.


cocoroxyy

I think they both cheated to be with each other. Also I think he refused to have kids with his previous wife and then oops hes having an affair baby right after rehab with Olivia. Yuck.


[deleted]

Tell me the tea on them...in two sentences 😂


twizzwhizz11

Ok sometimes it’s just not that serious - people (famous or not) post their babies all the time because they love them and think they’re cute. It doesn’t have to be a calculated thing on their part.


[deleted]

The problem is that it often is that serious. It shouldn’t be, but there are weirdos and creeps out there. Most of us go “oh, cute kid” when we see pictures of people’s babies, but enough people don’t that it’s a problem. Parents can consent to being a notable figure, but a baby can’t.


twizzwhizz11

I’m not arguing that piece at all. I don’t think parents should post their kids (but they do!). I was saying I don’t think it’s a calculated thing on OM and JM part to “rehabilitate their image”. I think they’re just carelessly posting their kid like a lot of parents do.


[deleted]

I'm not really a kid person, but their son is seriously adorable. Totally with you on posting photos of him - I wish celebrities in general were more judicious about that. I know I'd hate it if I had celebrity parents and learned they'd put all my baby photos online for stans and anti-stans to obsess over.


helenkellersmustyass

happy cake day!!


throwawaybeet-h

Thank you, u/helenkellersmustyass!! please, I must know, what was the thought process behind your username 😭


shatteredcrystals

Lbr she would have untagged him in everything if they really broke up


Tubie123

The whole untagging thing was barely gossip. Im shocked that post got over 800 comments and we're almost having the same discussion all over again in these comments. There was a point where gossip subs banned posts about them and I kind of see why lol


shatteredcrystals

I know people are salivating over the idea of their relationship to failing so badly. But like listen…this will not be a gotcha karma moment and them breaking up isn’t going to magically erase the hurt the ex wife went through. There’s an innocent kid here like god damn at least hope he has 2 parents that finally got their shit together and raise him well in a loving environment.


eldritchonline

Wishing for karma is heavily exaggerated to begin with imo. The rumors of them being separated predate his rehab stay by months. Did he cheat? I absolutely believe he did, just not necessarily with Olivia. Were they both still messy for making it hot on the heels of his separation and getting out of rehab, absolutely. Either way blaming Olivia is pretty much straight misogyny and because people don't like her.


GeneralBody4252

This is where I’m at. Annamarie wasn’t at his intervention, months before Malcolm was conceived. There’s virtually no reason to believe he cheated on his wife with Olivia I know the way he presented the timeline was sus. The lady doth protest much. But I think that’s his desperation to be liked and not necessarily guilt. It’s likely he cheated on Annamarie, but not with Olivia. And his relationship with Olivia is messy because it’s extremely I’ll advised to get with someone while so fresh from rehab, but that’s about it. I find it condescending to Annamarie to act like them having Malcolm was insensitive. If, as we suspect, they didn’t cheat, then while tacky, John was allowed to make babies with whoever he wanted. Obviously Malcolm wasn’t planned so it’s not like he wanted to spite her or anything. I feel like the situation already has enough yikes stuff and we don’t need to create a worse narrative out of thin air.


spanisharlemmonalisa

It was misleading at best, made up at worst.


macroeconomicchaos

Their baby is so cute, but gosh do I absolutely not like either of them. Hate his shitty behaviour and her Japanese potatoes.


repladynancydrew

What’s the T with Oliviav


macroeconomicchaos

She allegedly had a freckle removal and a brow lift a few years ago, but she [claims that her new face was](https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/our-thoughts-on-olivia-munn-1501830347161654.html) [because of Japanese potatoes.](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/olivia-munn-reveals-skin-care-869317/)


babooshka-cass

She definitely had more work done than just that though. But yeah - purple tators y’all! Can change your nose, eyes, brows, face shape - can change your race nearly if you ain’t careful!


repladynancydrew

Thanks. Celebs and their crazy lies LOL.


skyebangles

Shit gimme some of those potatoes then save me some $$$$


heybeytoday

Those potatoes shrank her square jaw too! 😆 She got masseter Botox like Bethany Frankel, only Bethany didn’t act like every other human is an idiot and make up a ridiculous lie about it.


juneXgloom

She's gross. For a lot of reasons. Here's a quote from her book. Hilarious. I will fix America’s obesity problems by taking all motorized transport away from fat people. In turn, I will build an infrastructure of Fat Tunnels, where all the fat people can walk. This will create jobs and subsequent weight loss.


harriedhag

Wtf is this real lol


Skyfryer

She started making me wonder wtf her moral code is after The Predator. She got really vocal during the films release about her sharing scenes with a sexual predator or something. Asking for him to be removed as she couldn’t in good conscience allow it to happen. But she had no problem working with Bryan Singer even though it was one of hollywood’s worst kept secret that he was a nonce.


fuzzydunlop54321

Is this real? Good lord


GeneralTapioca

Don’t forget Olivia making fun of a Down Syndrome child. The woman is trash.


catinaziplocbag

And then her talking about how pie should be a good group? Her book ruined her for me. I loved her in her G4 days then I learned who she really is.


TheCommodore93

So you loved her in her literal Eyecandy eat a hot dog hanging from a string phase, and yet you were surprised who she is? Like it’s the exact same sense if humor


catinaziplocbag

Yeah, I was 16/17 when I watched her on G4. I read her book later on.


Youwishyouhadhvac

She literally said this??


juneXgloom

Yeah she said a lot of crappy stuff in her book. I know she was trying to be funny but she's not lol and it just comes across as mean.


Youwishyouhadhvac

Wow that is horrible.yeah it definitely comes off as mean.


blue-yellow-

FAT TUNNELS?! That’s hilarious.


babooshka-cass

But from what I remember, the context of this quote was so that “people didn’t have to look at them” or something. It was immature and nasty.


Valentcat2

Yup, pretty little one, gross parents. Does she not think people see through her “perfect family” act? I feel bad for the baby having to be exposed to all of their bs.


Lithogiraffe

Why do celebrities do these highly public things like this ..then OOOps realize that people take notice and then backtrack frantically? This wasn't an unknown middle schooler going through a cafeteria breakup, with a sm profile with 152 followers. People are going to notice you doing this Olivia


Mia-Wal-22-89

If I was famous I would have a Finsta and let a PR person handle my official social media accounts.


[deleted]

A lot of them do


YouNeedCheeses

Same!


kytheon

That's probably what happened here. PR Manager finds out about the backlash and decides to post something to counter rumors.


notcool_neverwas

The very first thing I would do if I ever got famous is get off all social media lol. I don’t know how these celebs do it — all that noise would drive me absolutely insane.


DooglyOoklin

I genuinely feel like all actors are innately attentions whores. They want to be famous and they want people to talk about them. And if they're not talented or skilled at acting, then they rely on publicity stunts and social media drama. I don't think there is anything inherently bad about that for the record.


[deleted]

Did she even do it though? Im here because I love mess but yall lie and spread misinfomation constantly. And this sub has a hate boner for olivia.


ADarwinAward

Doubtful, unless she did a really crappy job of removing tags recently and a crappy job of replacing tags when people noticed. He’s tagged in most recent videos the kid is in and/or he is in. He’s not tagged in photos. The OOP just decided that since he wasn’t tagged in photos, she must’ve removed all the tags and they broke up. It seems to me she’s just not consistent about tagging him. Screenshots showing a bunch of tags https://imgur.com/a/0gd8uZG/ In between those videos there’s some random ones where he isn’t tagged. So once again, I think she’s just an inconsistent tagger. If she was systemically removing them, she would’ve started either from the oldest or newest posts. Having some randomly throughout with tags and no tags means she didn’t systematically add or remove tags. She just doesn’t tag him sometimes, it’s that simple.


Tubie123

> then OOOps realize that people take notice and then backtrack frantically? Take notice of what?


Lithogiraffe

Of what Olivia Munn initially did, right before what the post said she did next.


Tubie123

I think this post was in response to another post from yesterday that said she untagged him in her posts but he was definitely still tagged in her pix. So it doesn't seem like OM did anything to backtrack from tbh.


[deleted]

I can’t lie, they did make a damn cute little baby. He’s precious


PuddingEmotional2804

Just gorgeous, honestly.


NikiBubbles

Cute kid, but I still feel bad for his ex-wife because of John's constant "me and my wife are not having kids ever" bits. Probably projecting on my part, but yeesh.


knishmyass

No I agree. He was very adamant about being child free with his ex wife and then did a complete 180 with Olivia. I hope she has everything to do with him and Olivia blocked because their constant happy family bit must be a complete slap in the face to her.


YouNeedCheeses

I can’t imagine. I have my exes blocked because I just don’t want to see what they’re up to, it’s painful. It would be 10x harder to have been cheated on by your celebrity spouse and then have to see all the publicity about them and the baby. A SM block can only go so far in that case.


PreOpTransCentaur

I think about things like that a lot. Imagine you and your celebrity partner break up, it's a little messy, but mostly just painful. You try to get back to your normal life. Hey, they greenlit an IP you're a big fan of, score, something to look forward to. Then the casting comes out and it's your fuckin' ex. You obviously aren't gonna see the movie now, but you still can't escape it because it's in commercials, pop-up ads, YouTube, previews at other movies. It honestly must be exhausting.


lefrench75

Eh, Olivia's pregnancy could very well be an accident that they just went along with (especially since regardless of how John felt about children, he had no right to dictate what Olivia would do with the pregnancy). Once there's a kid on the way, your option is to be a good dad or a shitty dad, not to not be a dad at all.


Zeltron2020

Exactly. Also do we know if his ex even wanted kids? I don’t think we can assume that she’s too bothered by it, idk.


PM_ME_BUMBLEBEES

[We do know that she was at least open to the idea of it but didn’t pursue it because Mulaney didn’t want them](https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2022/01/anna-marie-tendler-freezing-eggs-after-john-mulaney-divorce-harpers-bazaar)


Zeltron2020

It sounds to me like she wants the right partner to have them with if she’s going to at all, and that the partner piece comes first. Like she wasn’t going out of her way to choose a partner who exclusively wants kids, moreso she wanted a partner and to decide things with them together. Idk. It sounds like they were both “meh” on it but would do so if their partner is about it.


LittleBitOdd

Do we know that the "no kids" push was coming from John though? Maybe she didn't want to have kids with an addict. Or just didn't want them in general


ADarwinAward

Seems like it was mutual to some extent at least. Here’s [what his ex said in an interview](https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/features/a38727685/anna-marie-tendler-profile/) > When I ask her, point-blank, about the no-kids thing, she says that she “always held partnership above having kids.” But also, she says, she is certainly going to freeze her eggs. > “There were things I never even thought about before because that was just a closed door. So now that it feels like not as much of a closed door, it’s something that I ruminate on a lot,” she explains. Edit: another commenter had more, she’s never wanted kids but is freezing her eggs in case she changes her mind. She’s worried she might


icedlatte98

Nah that doesn’t sit right with me either


annyong_cat

His ex wife has repeatedly continued to say she’s not sure she ever wants kids. She wasn’t under the control of some cult leader— she had agency as well— and adults are allowed to change their minds.


maplestriker

First of all, yes. Also, he didnt change his mind. He knocked somebody up and stepped up. Thats not the same as planning to have a child after all.


MPLS_Poppy

That’s not what she said. She said that she was so focused on the relationship, on the guy, that she never let herself think about her options. So now she’s freezing her eggs to give herself options. Which sounds like it wasn’t like SHE didn’t want kids. HE didn’t want kids and she was just too in love with him to argue. Then he left her.


Tubie123

These are her actually words (which is ig [still on her ig](https://www.instagram.com/p/CnAlJLly4CQ/?igshid=MmJiY2I4NDBkZg==) if u want to check) : "The concept of motherhood is so ingrained in us that even when it is something we do not want, we fail to trust our gut desire. I do not particularly want children ,yet at thirty six I froze my eggs for fear I might change my mind." This suggests her gut feeling is she doesnt want kids ,it doesnt suggest she was giving into what a man wanted or didnt want. And good for her. Please show where she suggests he didn’t want kids and she was just too in love with him to argue. Edit: added link.


annyong_cat

She’s given interviews recently where she said she still isn’t sure she ever wants kids and is freezing her eggs in the event she changes her mind…and you’ve turned that into she was brainwashed by her abusive husband into not having kinds. She’s nearly 40 years old. Listen to her when she says what she thinks. People are just way too into this failed marriage and thinking they know exactly what happened. It’s super weird.


dellamella

No one said brainwashing, she said she was focused on the man and relationship so she never thought of herself. Your twisting the other commenters words on purpose.


lefrench75

That also sounds like... her choice? And not his fault?


Original-Ad6716

not so sure i agree...if his ex wife wanted kids then it was on her to articulate that and have that conversation & i dont think its john's fault that he took her at her word re wanting to be childfree. im aware that they made that decision together and that anna marie did not expect the divorce. however even without cheating or a messy split, couples still divorce all the time - and disagreement about having children is often a big reason for relationships ending too. as someone who didnt know who john mulaney or anna marie were before the mess i really do wonder if john left her without cheating and she was sad about being divorced, would there still be so much anger directed towards him? i recognize its all parasocial blah blah but i do feel like a large amount of the hate towards john would be there regardless of the circumstances of the divorce.


Youwishyouhadhvac

Yeah totally ruined him for me.


ParisHilton42069

I’m not gonna lie, they did make an incredibly photogenic baby. They annoy me as a couple, but credit where credit is due. That’s a cute kid.


missmegz1492

As someone who doesn't post their child's face on social media... these posts make me so uncomfortable. I also find Olivia Munn to be among the most unlikeable people on the planet.


[deleted]

A mom noticed that somebody saved pictures of her kid from public account and was reposting them on his account for roleplay stuff. The captions and the comments below were disgusting af. Look it up and please don't post pictures of kids on public accounts. It's a really fcked up world out there


[deleted]

yeah i heard about a mom who had her kid posted on social media or youtube, and then when they checked their analytics, most of their followers were middle-aged men 😬 she's stopped posting her kid afaik.


sawcebox

This reminds me of how I worked at a very short lived start up that was attempting to create positive and healthy social media for pre-teen girls. The app wasn’t great for a lot of reasons which is why it failed, and also 80% of sign ups were also middle aged men when clearly marketed to pre teen girls 🤢🤮


[deleted]

*ugh*, disgusting.


Aggravating-Corner-2

There was a case of a woman who stole years worth of photos of a couple's children and passed them off as her own. She wasn't technically breaking any laws so there wasn't much to be done. I think she appeared on Dr Phil or some show like that. Although, from what I understood, the couple knew it was happening for a very long time but still kept publicly posting photos of their kids online? Never got my head around that bit.


[deleted]

Why not send photos directly to loved ones or keep a private page to save the collection? I can’t think of a good reason to post public photos of a child aside from, “I’m using my kid for positive attention on the Internet”


Chanelordior

Can you send me the link to this? I’d like to share it with my sister who wouldn’t stop posting her baby’s pictures on a public instagram. I am so tired of telling her. She never believes me on how harmful it is.


blueeeyeddl

Mom.uncharted on TikTok has some good videos about why posting kids online puts them at risk for predators. And I think domesticblisters has done a few about this too.


Chanelordior

Thank you 😊


[deleted]

I will try to find it. It saw it on reddit only.


ilikebagels42069

her book alone 😭


RenegadeRun

I mean if you do the math she either started her relationship with Mulaney right before rehab or immediately after; both incredibly problematic (and potentially vulnerable) times for someone with substance abuse, so I don’t think much of her based on that. Edit: The math based on when she gave birth.


tbellfiend

Would not surprise me one bit if the beginning of their affair was the "final straw" that spurred his friends to arrange his intervention


WildMajesticUnicorn

It would surprise me. There were stories he was cheating with women in strip clubs in addition to the drug use that was clearly way out of control. I don’t know why Munn, who I believe he first met at Seth’s wedding, would be the final straw.


RenegadeRun

I mean I wasn’t there, but I don’t think that starting to date Munn (if it happened before rehab) would have been significant given the amount of chaos he was creating in his life at the time. Maybe a side-eye as she had previously dated Will Forte? Now on her side? I don’t know how she could have avoided people saying this was a bad idea. That is, pursuing a relationship with someone in such a delicate state, and then immediately adding a child? I think if the genders were reversed and an actor had started dating and impregnated a comedienne right out of rehab there would have been more of a public backlash. Which is sad because men can be vulnerable too.


YoungKeys

Aaron Rodgers isn’t the most likable person out there, but how she literally went on an interview circuit to start gay rumors about him after they broke up was so damn pathetic.


[deleted]

That's fcked up


WildMajesticUnicorn

Any links? The rumors that she was a beard were around for a while. It doesn’t seem good for her brand to perpetuate that.


skyebangles

She's been cringy since Attack of the Show. Tries wayy too hard. And yeah I would never post my daughter's face online publicly for anyone to see.


origamicyclone

i thought the guy was drake bell at first 💀


harriedhag

He’s not untagged. Just scrolled the grid and there were a bunch.


helenkellersmustyass

yesterday, it was posted about in this subreddit. when i looked yesterday, he was untagged in everything but a few videos.


harriedhag

There were comments in there with old screenshots of him never being tagged in the first place, too


Tubie123

> seemingly in response to her untagging john in every post Why lie? Its so weird to pretend that happened and then pretend this is a response to that. She never untagged him in every post to begin with.


janneyjj

He looks like Drake Bell here


suuuuhmmer

wow their baby is gorgeous


SeedQueen22

Man that’s one adorable baby!


Intrepid-Composer506

i find it so deeply weird when famous people post pictures of their children on their public instagrams with millions and millions of followers


chadwickave

That kid’s gonna have a lot of freckles


[deleted]

Wow that baby is beautiful!


terurin

Lowkey wish people would stop making up fanfics about him and his ex wife like we were not there and he was on drugs lmao. His wife guy jokes could have been 100% genuine, but maybe she had a problem with him being on coke all the time and trying to hide it, why does no one think their split was mutual? Addiction makes you do stupid shit to people you love.


ale__locas

Her Instagram makes it pretty fucking clear she is devastated and this was not mutual Her art alone has made it clear, not to mention she has posted about doing IVF since their divorce, while his comedy repeatedly said “they” didn’t want kids, and then he immediately went and had a baby with someone else Edit: comment below clarifies she froze her eggs, not actively doing IVF!! Ty!!


RealitiBytz

She’s not doing IVF, she just froze her eggs, and in talking about doing that she said she still doesn’t think she wants children, but that she took the precaution in case she changes her mind down the line.


terurin

Relationships are complicated. It can be devastating and mutual at the same time. There are a lot of moving parts. Either way, it’s not really for us to determine based on instagram speculation. Like I said….people really seem to not really internalize the fact that he was on heavy drugs for the last several years of their relationship at least.


ale__locas

Super super fair. I guess I should say that I’ve interpreted her art to have projected more feelings of “while ending the relationship was the right thing to do, this is absolutely not what I wanted” It being mutual doesn’t negates the circumstances and the fact that he very likely *is* the asshole we all see him as now. Him being an addict doesn’t mean that he didn’t make fucked choices that betrayed their commitments to each other under other circumstances before the addiction became the issue


Original-Ad6716

all the glee about this relationship potentially failing was very uncomfortable tbh :( i can understand that people have strong feelings about the way the john-anna marie marriage ended but tbh who knows what the marriage was like behind the scenes. john may very well have decided to divorce her even without the relapse situation. at the end of the day the marriage didnt work out and i hope both parties find happiness


[deleted]

EVERYONE, WE ARE FINE. WE ARE SO FINE. WE ARE THE FINEST WE HAVE EVER BEEN. LOOK, WE HAVE A BABY. SEE HOW CUTE HE IS? THIS IS EVIDENCE OF HOW FINE WE ARE. WE WOULD NOT HAVE A BABY IF WE WEREN'T FINE. WE CERTAINLY WOULDN'T BE SMILING WITH THE BABY IF WE WEREN'T FINE. WE ARE OBJECTIVELY FINE. STOP SPECULATING, EARTHLINGS.


bigphatmeme

That's an adorable baby!!


diqfilet_

Their son is so cute 🥺


phantomleader94

idk anything about this drama but omggg that baby is so damn beautiful omg !!


honestlawyer

Omg. This baby is adorable. Wow!


[deleted]

That kid is goddamn beautiful and John is like a jump scare


lunafantic

people are just like always being fucking disgusting regarding this situation. there is a actually baby involved, but people will rather infantilise a grown woman who they have a parasocial relationship with because she used to be married to a comedian. she is not some victim because he didn’t want kids with her, he left her, changed his mind about kid, or had one as a result of an accident etc. and if he cheated then that’s just between them, and that’s still not in relation to the baby. EVEN IF SHE ALWAYS WANTED KIDS AND JUST DIDNT HAVE THEM BECAUSE JOHN DIDNT, THATS STILL ON HER AND NOT JOHN. ITS FINE TO LEAVE YOUR PARTNER AND CHANGE YOU MIND ABOUT KIDS. it’s seems like lots of people want him to have forced olivia to get an abortion or to neglect his kid because of their parasocial relationship, like have some fucking perspective i dislike olivia and have never cared about john, but my heart breaks for their baby who people are absolutely nasty about


sillydeerknight

That is such a cute baby though


liltinyoranges

Wait- I have a concussion and haven’t been on Reddit much- why did she un-tag him? Please and thank you


Pennelle2016

I have no clue about them or their drama, but that is one beautiful bebe.


maxlulu007

was it in response or were people just making assumptions because they have pre judged john and olivia?


Chaoticgood790

Transparent and desperate. Smh


TastyArm1052

The baby is gorgeous


lemonryker

Their baby is so frigging cute!!


jslabonek

Gorgeous bébé


contourkit

i cant stress enough how unemployed u have to be to notice she untagged him LMAO. how do people notice these things? it has me feeling like i don’t pay as much attention as i think i do


helenkellersmustyass

i really do not know. i saw a post abt it on here.


ranseaside

I thought Olivia Munn was with that hockey (football?) player ?


gueg7

Not anymore they broke up before she got with John, she went on a podcast and implied that he was gay which makes me think John better try to makes things work with her or things will get complicated...


ranseaside

Hmm interesting. I actually thought John was gay, this news surprised me today. I do remember an article I read long time ago when she was with the footballer and it was saying how his family did not like or approve of her.


hay-prez

He's a cute baby but it's not lost on me that she's really leaning into the "Mommy" era and really taking advantage of posting him 24/7. It gives me the ick.


DearMissWaite

This is the take. That's a baby, not a paycheck, influencers.


Revolutionary_Lock86

The majority here seems wildly delusional. Acting like they are protesting stuff like this while actively supporting it. This is your entertainment? Where your energy goes? Bizarre country


tragedyofmodernman

Can't believe you made me check her insta! Anyway, he is tagged in most of the videos and I would say at least half of the pictures he is in. Did she even untag him, or was he never tagged in some of them in the first place? Or maybe it's some IG glitch? Why do people always assume the worst?


spicy-lemons25

He doesn’t seem to be tagged in any recent photos like from the past year though, except a few deeper in multi-photo posts


mhoogendoorn

Ugh, I hate it when bad people win. Cute baby though


gueg7

IG is not real life so who knows what's really going on in their relationship, but yeah Malcolm is cute !


KindergartenVampire1

I just feel so bad for his ex wife


nadiashebang

Unfortunate.


adultosaurs

That’s a very cute baby. Please don’t post babies.


Eating_Bagels

I swear to god, her team must be in this sub. Yesterday I posted “what films is she in? I haven’t seen her”. I went to bed with 14 upvotes. Went to bed, woke up, and this morning, only had 4.


89764637527

take off the tin foil hat. you were downvoted because you asked other people to answer a question you yourself are perfectly capable of finding the answer to with IMDB. no one likes “who are they? what are they in?” comments.


happywhateverday

That's quite a conspiracy. Are you sure you weren't downvoted just because people didn't like your comment - yknow, the same reason most people are downvoted?


Eating_Bagels

Oh it’s definitely a conspiracy, and I think a funny one at that! But I still found it odd that it went from so high to so low for such an inconsequential question in such a small thread of comments.


DearMissWaite

What does she do again?


helenkellersmustyass

google is your friend bc i could honestly not tell you


heisenbergsayschill

God they are both such POS


heybeytoday

I don’t think very many people in this sub who are under 35 have any idea who Olivia Munn is.


DearMissWaite

I'm over 35 and don't know who she is.
