Amy Poehler may love a “good hang,” but the beloved actress and podcast host isn’t one to overshare about her personal life.
Though she has made a handful of appearances with her boyfriend, podcast producer and editor Joel Lovell, not much else is known about their low-key romance. Back in 2024, a source revealed to PEOPLE the Baby Mama star was officially dating the former New York Times editor, saying the two were enjoying spending time with each other.
When she won the inaugural Best Podcast award for Good Hang with Amy Poehler, at the Golden Globes earlier this year, she briefly acknowledged their relationship, saying, “Thank you to Joel Lovell. I love you. Thank you for everything.”
As she celebrates her 55th birthday today, see 9 rare photos of Amy Poehler and her partner, Joel Lovell, so far.
