Anna Marie Tendler — John Mulaney fans know her name. She’s the wife he had when he lost his mind, became so addicted to drugs he required an intervention, and divorced when he had an affair with Olivia Munn.
Prior to that Mulaney portrayed their six year marriage as one of great happiness.
Now Tender’s written a memoir coming in August from Simon & Schuster. Announced this afternoon, pre-orders have already taken it to number 27 on amazon.
The book is called Men Have Called Her Crazy.
It’s unclear how much she can write about Mulaney and the marriage now that they’re divorced. But S&S wouldn’t have taken it without some juice in those pages. And telling her own truth is something she can’t be denied, even if she just refers to him as “my ex.” Everyone will know who it is.
Mulaney has a sharp, fast mind. He’s a great comic, and verbally gifted. Through the marriage, the audience related to him. When it blew up, it was so crazy that he was in the news for weeks. Then he turned the whole saga into material for his act.
Needless to say, if Tendler’s book is informative, she’ll have a big hit.
And listen, Mulaney went on to wed Munn, who was pregnant and they seem to be happy. Everyone gets what they want in the end! Not bad!
