Jimmy Kimmel, widely known for his late-night show, has had a personal life marked by significant relationships. His first marriage was to Gina Maddy, whom he met in college. They wed in 1988 and had two children, daughter Katie and son Kevin.

Kimmel later found love with Molly McNearney, a writer for his show. They began dating in 2009 and married in 2013, later welcoming their children, Jane and William.
