Jo Koy Reportedly Dating New Girlfriend after Chelsea Handler’s Split

Jo Koy might have moved on with a new girlfriend months after his recent breakup with his now-former girlfriend, Chelsea Handler.

On Wednesday, January 4, 2023, Deuxmoi took to their Instagram stories to give a new update about the American comedian’s relationship. And they reported that Koy has a new girlfriend.

Under Deuxmoi’s Q&A, one of their followers had asked, “Do you think Chelsea Handler and Jo Koy will get back together?” Deuxmoi replied that they don’t think Koy and Handler will get back together as they recently heard that Handler wasn’t happy with how Koy handled their split.

Their answer was, “I recently read a headline where she seemed pretty pissed with the way he handled the breakup although I had thought she broke up with him.” “So I’m going with no,” they added.

Additionally, Deuxmoi had placed a screenshot under their response. The screenshot was of a message they received from an anonymous source claiming Koy has a new girlfriend. In the message, the tipster initially asked to keep their information anonymous.

After that, the tipster wrote, “He is dating a friend’s cousin who lives in CA.” The anonymous source’s claim hints that the comedian might not be much affected by his split with Handler and now has a new girlfriend who lives in California.

That said, Deuxmoi’s reports should be taken with a grain of salt, as most might not be accurate or confirmed. On the other hand, most of the claims from Deuxmoi have even turned out to be accurate. So, let’s not confirm or discard anything for now.

Furthermore, there have been no details about Koy’s new girlfriend. Neither the Washington native comedian has confirmed anything about a new relationship nor has the tipster provided other information to Deuxmoi.

Jo Koy and Chelsea Handler’s relationship details

Koy and Handler first met during the mid-2000s when they worked together on the latter’s late-night talk show Chelsea Lately. At the time, Handler developed soft feelings for Koy but decided to suppress them.

It was only in June 2021 that the two sparked romance rumors after Handler started to share videos of herself and Koy spending time via her social media handles. Around three months later, in September 2021, Handler teased that she had someone special in her life.

However, she refused to reveal the identity of her beau. But the secret didn’t last for long as she spilled her beans in the same month by sharing a picture of her and Koy kissing, making their relationship Instagram official.

One month later, she appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and said, “One day, I just looked at him [Koy] and I thought, ‘Oh, that’s my guy!’ So he’s like my best buddy, and then I also, you know, get to have sex with him. … Fun time!”

In the same month, Koy appeared on Good Morning Washington and said, “I love her, man. She’s amazing. She’s a boss. She’s incredible. Nothing better than to be in love with someone that you have been friends with for a long time.”

“She’s got my back, and I’ve always had hers. It just feels good to finally find love, and it’s with a person I’ve loved for a long time,” he added.

As months passed, the now-former couple showered more love and opened up about their relationship via different mediums like social media handles and interviews. But fate had other plans for them as they parted ways in July 2022.

On July 18, 2022, Handler posted a pre-recorded video for their first dating anniversary to announce her breakup with Koy. Some part of her lengthy caption read, “It is with a heavy heart to announce that we have decided together that it is best for us to take a break from our relationship right now.”

“I know many of you were invested in our love, and I wanted to express to you how much that meant to both of us. How much it still means. And how much I now believe in love for each of us,” he concluded.

In late December 2022, Handler spoke candidly about her career, personal life, and relationship, plus split with Koy during her appearance on Brooke Shields’ Now What? podcast. She mentioned that she was open to getting married as it was important for Koy.

However, as their relationship progressed, she realized that Koy wasn’t her person. She also admitted that walking away from Koy and the relationship they built was the most challenging thing she had to do in her life.

“There were just some behaviors that we couldn’t agree on, and it felt like I would have to abandon myself – which maybe I would have been OK to do if I were 20 or 25 – but I wasn’t willing to do that. No matter how much I loved this person – and I loved him so much – I was not going to abandon myself.”

“I was like, ‘I’m not going to change this; I’m not going to change the way that I behave to make you feel more comfortable. I’m not doing that.’ And I had to walk away from something that I really believed was gonna be a forever relationship, and so that was difficult.”

In the same podcast, Handler also stated that she and Koy tried therapy to maintain their togetherness, but that didn’t work. Ultimately, they decided that the end of their relationship was the best thing for both of them.

Connor Brennan On His Trans Sister And Her Coming Out Story

Connor Brennan, known for his appearances on The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise, recently sparked curiosity among fans with his trans-Pride anklet. 

During an interview with BachelorNation, Connor shed light on his LGBTQ+ allyship and the significance of LGBTQ+ issues within his family.

Connor candidly talked about his sister Deirdre Brennan’s coming out story. He reflected on his sister’s coming out experience as a transgender individual within their family. 

Recounting the events in 2017 during a Christmas break in their St. Louis home, Connor shared the emotional moment when Deirdre, who had already confided in him, gathered the courage to come out to their parents.

As Deirdre stood in the doorway, she became overwhelmed with emotion, and tears started to flow. For nearly 10 minutes, she struggled to speak while their parents reassured her that everything would be alright. 

Eventually, Deirdre revealed her truth, explaining that she is transgender and identifies as a woman. Connor’s mother acknowledged the news, assuring Deirdre that everything was fine and that they would navigate the journey together.

However, it was Connor’s father who offered an incredibly heartwarming reaction. Taking a moment to process the information, he looked at Deirdre and inquired, “Okay, is this going to make you happy?” 

Deirdre said yes, and upon receiving a positive response, Connor’s father expressed, “Okay, great. Well, we love you no matter what. Now, I gotta go mow the lawn.”

The 31-year-old also stressed that being trans is a normal and beautiful part of life, stating, “Being trans is a part of life; it’s not some big showstopping thing.”

Connor Brennan’s allyship toward LGBTQ+ transformed after his sister’s transition

When the outlet asked if his allyship had changed since his sister’s transition, Connor excitedly replied, “Oh, my gosh, yeah. I mean, that’s sort of what ignited my allyship.”

Connor admitted that he had always considered himself an ally for the LGBTQ+ community. Still, he recognized that he had the privilege of not personally experiencing hate due to his own identity or whom he loved.

However, witnessing the challenges and discrimination his sister faced ignited a fierce protective instinct within him. 

He shared how his family educated themselves extensively, read every available resource, and adapted to support Deirdre.

His mother, Lisa Brennan, even wrote a book called Treasuring My Transgender Child to share their story of love and acceptance and inspire others with similar experiences.

When asked about his journey of educating himself about LGBTQ+ issues, Connor admitted it was initially challenging to let go of preconceived notions. 

However, Connor recognized that it was not his place to question or invalidate someone’s identity. He admitted that accepting his sister’s true self brought her immense happiness, and he couldn’t help but support her.

As someone who frequently educates others about LGBTQ+ issues, Connor shared that he tries to normalize the conversation. 

He casually mentions his sister’s transgender identity when appropriate, treating it as a natural part of life rather than a dramatic revelation.

Additionally, Connor addressed the influx of anti-trans bills and the impacts they have on his sister and their family. He expressed his frustration and anger towards the legislators who wish to erase and oppress the trans community. 

At last, the reality TV star expressed hope that more families like his will emerge, accepting and supporting the transgender community.

He mentioned, “this past year has been by far the hardest time of my life. i am not denying the highs that have come as well, but there have been countless and excruciating lows, and it’s all finally catching up to me.”

Hossler had previously spoken about the importance of strength and self-care, encouraging others to prioritize their mental health.

“I’m taking time away to seek treatment to finally and hopefully get my mental health to where it needs to be. i need a mental reset. i want to renew my mind,” the singer said.

He emphasized that his ultimate aspiration was to create moments and music that could heal and provide solace in a world characterized by fakeness and insecurity. 

However, Hossler admitted that to achieve that goal, he needed to be in the right state both physically and mentally, which he currently was not.

Despite his absence, he reassured his fans that his new song, ‘Elevated Heartbreak,’ would still be released on June 8, 2023. He expressed gratitude for his team, who would assist in ensuring the song’s release during his time away. 

The ‘Sober’ singer found solace in the fact that this song itself served as a form of therapy, and he hoped that his fans would connect with it, as he had created it with that purpose in mind.

Perry Mattfeld And Husband Mark Sanchez Share Wedding Vows

American actress Perry Mattfeld exchanged vows with her beloved partner, Mark Sanchez, in a beautiful destination wedding ceremony held in Mexico.

On May 28, 2023, Mattfeld and Sanchez married inside a historic 16th-century colonial monastery in Oaxaca, Mexico. Sanchez was accompanied to the altar by his mother, while close friends Leslie Powell and Seth Cook performed Elton John’s ‘Can You Feel the Love Tonight.’

On the other hand, the actress made a breathtaking entrance in a custom Karen Sabag dress. The beautiful bodice of the dress featured intricate beadwork from Paris, adding a touch of elegance and glamour.

Similarly, she accessorized the dress with diamond drop earrings that Sanchez had given her for their first Christmas as a boyfriend and girlfriend.

As Mattfeld gracefully walked down the aisle, the melodic tones of Rihanna’s ‘Lift Me Up’ filled the air, setting a magical atmosphere for the joyous occasion. Additionally, Sanchez’s son Daniel proudly stood beside them during the wedding, fulfilling the important roles of groomsman and ring bearer.

After the wedding, Sanchez shared his exclusive thoughts with People, revealing the overwhelming emotions that swept over the couple on their memorable day. 

He expressed, “Calling it emotional would be an understatement. It all hit me like a sudden rush, and I couldn’t hold back the tears. They were tears of joy, love, and deep gratitude for having such an incredible life partner by my side.”

Similarly, Mattfeld shared her thoughts about their destination wedding in Mexico. She said, “We are both of Mexican descent and we loved the idea of celebrating there. We visited Oaxaca a few years ago and fell in love, so we knew it was the perfect location for us. We also liked the idea of giving our friends and family a reason to visit Oaxaca!”

The actress also disclosed that they infused the celebration with butterflies as they symbolize a special connection to their departed loved ones.

Moreover, Mattfeld fondly remembered the days leading up to the wedding, which was equally remarkable. On May 26, 2023, they hosted a culturally immersive dinner at Criollo by Chef Luis Arellano, setting the stage for a weekend filled with vibrant experiences.

She also mentioned that during the celebration, their bridesmaids and groomsmen delivered heartfelt toasts and shared cherished stories about Sanchez and her, creating a deeply emotional and memorable experience for the couple.

Perry Mattfeld and Mark Sanchez had a wonderful engagement and bachelorette party

Following the proposal, Mattfeld excitedly shared with People, “Mark personalized everything. From our initials, he put in my ring, to the songs he picked for our private concert.”
