“From Heartbreak to Hader: Ali Wong’s Chic Journey Back to Love”
The petite powerhouse, looking absolutely radiant at 42, dishes on her unexpected plunge back into the dating pool after her split from ex-husband Justin Hakuta. With the candor of a true style icon, Wong confesses, “I felt really embarrassed and ashamed,” but quickly realized that the media frenzy around her newly single status was essentially a “Bat-Signal” for eligible bachelors. Suddenly, our girl found herself more pursued than a limited-edition Hermès Birkin!
But darlings, here’s where the plot thickens like a luxurious Chanel face cream. Enter stage left: the dashing Bill Hader, a man Wong had previously encountered at the kind of dinner parties we’d all kill to attend. With the boldness of a Tom Ford runway show, Hader made his move, declaring Wong his “dream girl” and expressing his desire to make her his girlfriend. Talk about a fashion-forward approach to romance!
Not one to be easily swayed (after all, she had just invested in a dating app – how très moderne!), Wong jetted off to Europe. But Hader, proving himself to be as persistent as we are about finding the perfect pair of vintage Gucci loafers, pursued her across the continent with a trail of flower bouquets that would make even the most jaded fashion editor swoon.
Wong, ever the comedic genius, jokes about the stark contrast in reactions between her girlfriends (who were green with envy) and her male friends (who thought Hader “sounds like a psychopath”). It seems that in today’s dating landscape, genuine romance is as rare as a Balenciaga sample sale!
Our heroine didn’t immediately fall into Hader’s arms, though. Like a savvy shopper at Paris Fashion Week, she explored her options, even going on a date with a “big fancy movie director.” But Wong, with the wisdom of a woman who knows her worth, realized that finding the perfect partner – someone talented, funny, and proud-worthy – seemed as impossible as scoring front-row seats at every show during fashion month.
In a twist worthy of a Vogue cover reveal, Wong discloses that the man who captured her heart is none other than the persistent flower-sender himself, Bill Hader. Their love story, which began in April 2023, is as refreshing as a spritz of Chanel No. 5 on a summer’s day.
Wong, ever the trendsetter, is redefining post-divorce relationships faster than Virgil Abloh revamped Louis Vuitton. She maintains a close friendship with her ex-husband, proving that amicable divorces are the new black. “I need him desperately, and I need to respect him,” she says, showing us all how to navigate complex relationships with the grace of a seasoned supermodel on a circular runway.
As we close this fabulous chapter of Wong’s life, we’re left inspired by her journey from heartbreak to new love. It’s a reminder, darlings, that in both fashion and romance, taking risks and staying true to oneself always leads to the most stunning results. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to manifest my own Bill Hader – preferably one who knows the difference between Prada and Miu Miu!
