For those that don’t know, McCarthy and Falcone originally met in the 1990s when she was a freshman in college, and he was in high school. However, they officially became friends in 1998 after crossing paths again in a comedy class. They started dating a few years later and married on Oct 8, 2005. They later welcomed two daughters into the world named Vivian, 15, and Georgette, 13.
Despite being in the public eye for decades, they keep their romance on the more private side. But in a previous, rare interview with People, McCarthy talked about how lucky she feels about working continuously on successful projects with Falcone. She said, “Ben and I will have moments where we look at each other and go, ‘This is not bad at all.’ I feel like I got hit with a lucky stick.”
