Chelsea Peretti's Husband: The Comedian Is Happily Married to Jordan Peele

Chelsea Peretti began dating acclaimed comedian and filmmaker Jordan Peele in 2013, got engaged in 2015, and married in 2016. Peretti and her husband welcomed their one and only child about a year after their no-guests wedding ceremony.

Besides sharing their love, home, and child, the celebrity couple shares a great sense of humor. The comedians have appeared on various shows where they have demonstrated their comic prowess. Both are also great writers; Peretti wrote for "Saturday Night Live" and Peele was nominated for an Oscar for his work on "Get Out."

Peretti and Peele's dating and marriage lives have been largely kept private. It is unclear how they met as there are two versions of how Peretti met Beaumont Gino's father. One says that the couple started talking on Twitter, while the other credits Andy Samberg for introducing them and convincing Peretti to give Peele a chance.

Chelsea Peretti Is Married to Oscar-Winning Director Jordan Peele

Peretti and Peele married in 2016 after a few years of dating. During an interview in October 2014, Peretti shared how they met with Entertainment Weekly. After the couple became acquainted on Twitter, the actress says he appreciated a Web series she had done. They wanted to go to Sizzler for their first date.

The other version of their meetup story includes Peretti's "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" co-star, Andy Samberg. It is said that he was the one who introduced them to each other after learning that Peele was interested in Peretti. An insider close to Samberg claims he told the actress Peele was a good man and deserved a chance.

Although some thought that the two meetup stories could have happened with Peele perhaps reaching out on Twitter after Samberg had put out a good word for him, that may not have been the case. The Twitter story was told by Peretti herself, while the Samberg version is not in her own words, and Peretti is said to have denied it.

On November 25, 2015, just as the day ended, Peretti made a stunning revelation on Twitter. She announced Peele had asked for her hand in marriage the night before. The "Get Out" filmmaker saw a family talent show as the appropriate place to ask his girlfriend to marry him.

In 2016, it was revealed that the couple had eloped. While speaking to late-night host Conan O'Brien, Peretti said they had gone to Big Sur, a mountainous seaside area in California, where they were married by a woman named Soaring, who had them emanate rainbows from their "hearts onto the rings."

Saying the wedding was small may sound like an overstatement in their case. According to the actress, there were no guests at the wedding, and the only witness was their small black dog, who, from a wedding photo, was well-dressed for the occasion. Family and friends were later given photobooks of the wedding.

During another late-night show, Peele also confirmed the nuptials when he told Seth Meyers that he was married to Peretti. His longtime co-contributor, Keegan-Michael Key, also present on the show, comically added that he was not married to Peretti, but they were dating.

Moreover, a day after their marriage announcement, Peele told People Magazine that he felt being married was even better and that they were in a perfect situation but still getting better each day. He was also happy about their decision to have a small wedding, giving them the whole wedding day to themselves.

Jordan Peele and Chelsea Peretti Don't Share Much about Their Marriage

From the mere fact that Peretti and Peele chose to have a wedding with no human guests, one can safely conclude that they like to keep their relationship as private as possible and, in this case, even to their family and friends. Even when Peele announced their engagement, he only shared a diamond ring next to Peretti's name.

However, Peretti, an active Instagram user, occasionally shares details about the couple, including their activities or just expressing her love for Peele. In February 2023, she revealed she was learning to do magic, and her husband was very supportive. She also expressed her admiration for Peele's poetic mind.

On a rare occasion, Peele also got in on the act and complimented his wife, saying: "I just couldn't have asked for a more supportive partner, really. When it gets tough, I get to come home and have the funniest person in the world in the room with me. I am forever blessed."

Chelsea Peretti and Her Husband Have a Son Together

Less than a year after revealing they had tied the knot, Peretti said they were expecting. She announced on her Instagram account by sharing a picture of her baby bump and the caption, "beyonce schmonce," in relation to a then recently shared record-breaking Beyoncé post that she was expecting twins.

During the pregnancy, Peretti updated fans through her social media platforms. She would share various details about the good and bad times of her journey to becoming a mother. In April 2017, a heavily pregnant Peretti posted a picture of her in the mirror, with the update, "Thinking about a variety of snacks after a lengthy nap."

Peele was initially a little scared about becoming a father because of a horror fantasy in which he would not know what to do if he woke up in the middle of the night and saw his kid standing in the doorway. However, he said he was setting himself in a zone where he would be ready to welcome his kid.

On July 1, 2017, Peretti and Peele became parents for the first time as they welcomed their son, Beaumont Gino, in Los Angeles. Seven months after his birth, the previously frightened Peele spoke to People about parenthood, saying, "Every day is a joy. Seeing that smile or recognition is everything." Still, the parents keep their baby out of the spotlight.
