Chelsea Handler Confirms She's Dating Fellow Comedian Jo Koy
The jig is up! Chelsea Handler has confirmed she’s found love with longtime friend Jo Koy.
The 46-year-old took to Twitter and Instagram on Monday, September 27, to share two photos with the Mixed Plate author. One shot featured the 50-year-old taking a selfie with Handler’s arm wrapped around him, while the other featured the two enjoying a sweet smooch.
“He’s on tour, I’m on tour, sometimes we tour together. Vaccinated and horny. Funny is funny,” Handler wrote, referring to her 2021 "Vaccinated and Horny" tour. “All coming to a city near you!”
Fans — and fellow famous faces — couldn't help but express their excitement at the famed comedians forming a love connection. Sara Foster commented, "I have an unhealthy obsession with this couple" while Freida Pinto wrote: "❤️❤️ Love Chelsea In Love ❤️❤️."
The new flames currently appear to be in the Big Apple, where Koy — who's on the road for his "Just Kidding" world tour — had a show at King’s Theatre in Brooklyn on Sunday, September 26.
Koy — who was a frequent panelist on Handler's former E! series, Chelsea Lately — took to his Instagram Story to share several clips from his trip to Manhattan with his girlfriend, including a cute video of him chasing Handler across the street. He also shared a snap of the lovebirds embracing while taking in the sights.

Meanwhile, Handler made it clear she's Koy's biggest fan, too. While sharing videos of the two in NYC on her own instagram Story, the Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang author posted a clip showing her man, sans pants, getting dressed for his show. "Pre-show, baby! Look at my baby!" she exclaimed in the clip. "Baby, show them what you're wearing, yeah, baby, yeah!"
The pair previously sparked speculation that they were dating earlier this month after they were spotted enjoying a Los Angeles Dodgers game together while sporting matching outfits.
At the time, a coy Koy told TMZ that he and Handler were simply “great friends.”
However, on Wednesday, September 22 — two days after Handler gushed that she was “finally in love, with the best kind of guy there is" on Instagram — the new duo stepped out at LAX, where they held hands en route to their next destination.
