Trevor Noah speaks six languages, has nine Emmy nominations under his belt, and just looks like a movie star. By all accounts, Noah's a catch...which explains his long dating history. Originally hailing from Johannesberg, South Africa, the former radio show host first began as a contributor on The Daily Show in 2014. Roughly a year later, he'd take over as host after John Stewart stepped down, making Noah a household name overnight.

With the comedian hosting the Grammys this March, we decided to take a deep dive into his relationships past and present to get a better sense of the guy behind the desk. Here's what we know about his relationship history:

Noah dated model Jordyn Taylor for roughly three years

Before Noah took over hosting duties for The Daily Show, the comedian had dated a psychiotherapist, Dani Gabriel. We don't know much about their relationship, but we do know they broke it off around the time he began his full-time gig with Comedy Central. From 2015 to 2019, Noah dated singer/songwriter and model Jordyn Taylor. For the most part, he remained quiet about their relationship during that time. During an interview with Howard Stern, however, he acknowledged both their relationship and breakup for the first time.

In that same interview, Noah said he's not a fan of living together as partners, which may or may not have been played a role in their breakup. "I think one of the biggest reasons people get divorced and relationships breakup is because of this cohabiting bullshit that we've come to believe is the way relationships are supposed to be," he told Stern.

According to People, Noah and Kelly began dating mid-pandemic in August 2020. "They're very happy," an apparent inside source told the mag. "It's a very serious relationship." Their relationship was more or less confirmed weeks later by TMZ, the two captured walking into an apartment building by paparazzi in New York. In February, the two were also spotted celebrating Noah's 37th birthday together. Noah himself hasn't publicly acknowledged their relationship as of yet.

Who is Minka Kelly?

Most people know Kelly for her role as Lyla Garrity on the hit football drama Friday Night Lights or as Dawn Granger on the TNT series, Titans. Before Noah, Kelly dated Chris Evans for several years, as well as Wilmer Valderrama.
