Chelsea Handler Is In Love & Sharing it With the World For the First Time in Years

Everyone has been wondering about Chelsea Handler’s dating life after she opened up on Instagram on Monday that she is “finally in love, with the best kind of guy there is.” And now, we have the reveal of who the mystery man is; the one who has given the comedian “hope.”

Handler is dating another comedian, Jo Koy, who was formerly a panelist on Chelsea Lately and is currently hosting Metal Shop Masters on Netflix — but their friendship already has a long history given the fact they used to work together. The two were first spotted at the Los Angeles Dodgers game in late August, according to Page Six, and Koy remained coy about their relationship on TMZ Live in early September using the “great friends” line to keep their dating situation private. But Handler is now ready to tell the world.
