How did Nick Offerman meet his wife, Megan Mullally?
Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally met in 2000 when they were acting in a play together, specifically an Evidence Room Theatre Company production of The Berlin Circle. However, it was not love at first sight—at least not on Mullally’s part, with the Will & Grace star admitting Offerman’s look was “not cute … There was a lot of back hair.” Considering the fact that he was apparently wearing gold overalls that doubled as a notepad because “he couldn’t afford paper,” we can assume her assessment to be accurate.
Even so, it didn’t take long for the costars to hit it off. On a 2018 episode of Conan O’Brien’s podcast Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, Offerman described the pair getting physical early on in their relationship in a Los Angeles canyon park in front of some coyotes.
“It was early on and I feel like so many of the pleasures in our marriage have been cruise-directed by Megan, and this was no exception. After our play one night, we went to a fancy grocery store, which was a new thing for me, and got a baguette and cheeses and a bottle of nice wine, and she knew the park. She may have been there before me …”
“It wasn’t my first coyote,” Mullally retorted.
The couple married a mere 18 months after meeting.
How old was Megan Mullally when she met her husband, Nick Offerman?
Megan Mullally was 41 when she met Nick Offerman in 2000 while the two were starring in a play together. For his part, Offerman was 29—a fact Mullally wasn’t initially aware of.
She told GQ, “When we met, I was 41, and I’d always had younger guys pursue me, and I was really sick of it. And so I met Nick and I thought, Oh, great, ’cause this guy’s like 38!'”
Mullally made the assumption about Offerman’s age partially due to his appearance for the play they were working on, which had him sporting a mustache and a bald head.
When Mullally discovered the 11-year age difference between them, “I was pissed,” the Emmy winner exclaimed. “I thought he looked old! And he was mature, so when I found out he was 29, I said these two words: ‘You motherf**ker.’ And I almost ran my car off the road.”
Despite the age difference, the two hit it off and were married 18 months after meeting.Related: 60 Famous Celebrity Couples Who Will Help You Feel the Love
