Before becoming a father, 42-year-old comedian John Mulaney was living a pretty unhealthy lifestyle. As some of you know, he actually went to rehab for a cocaine/prescription pill addiction in late 2020. His friends had to stage an intervention for him and everything. It was a big deal.
One year after leaving rehab, he found himself in a new relationship with 44-year-old actress Olivia Munn. They became serious real quick and welcomed their first son together, Malcolm, in November of 2021.
And according to Munn, that’s when Mulaney decided to take life seriously. She told PEOPLE the following:
I really had no idea what kind of a father he would be, what kind of a friend he would be to me … but the day Malcolm was born, John’s whole world just lit up. And Malcolm looks just like John. He just changed his whole little life. Not to be too saccharine, but looking at John looking at Malcolm, I could see all that healing happening.
He started to make his health a priority. Munn revealed he hired a personal trainer and changed his diet. “I mean, he has protein powder in the house now,” she joked.
But it doesn’t stop at protein powder. No, Mulaney has gone all-in.
He talks about intermittent fasting, he’s got a sauna and a cold plunge. That little boy came into his life and just swept him off his feet. Now he’s doing everything he can to live the healthiest, best life.
Selfishly, we love to hear this because this means he’ll be around longer to make more content for us! But yeah, it’s also nice he’s doing this for his kids.
