Who Is Jim Carrey’s Wife, Min Ah?
Min Ah is an actress and artist, ABC News reported on October 1, 2026. TV Insider wrote the same day that she also goes by the name Minzi and that very little is publicly known about her.
How the two met has not been made public. ABC News said it is unknown when they began dating, and TV Insider called the start of the relationship unclear. The first public trace is from February 2022, when the pair was photographed leaving a charity comedy show hosted by Judd Apatow at Largo in Los Angeles, according to People, which cited photos published by Just Jared.
For four years the relationship stayed out of view. That changed on February 26, 2026, at the 51st César Awards in Paris, where Carrey accepted an honorary award, as the South China Morning Post reported. He gave the speech in French and ended one passage with “Thank you to my sublime companion, Min Ah. I love you, Min Ah,” in the translation ABC News credited to Variety. NBC Los Angeles called it the first time he had publicly acknowledged the romance with the woman who is now Jim Carrey’s wife.
The September 2026 Wedding in Los Angeles
The confirmed wedding details are few. Carrey’s spokesperson said the ceremony was private and held in Los Angeles in September 2026, according to NBC Los Angeles, and his representative told ABC News it was small and private, without giving a month. NBC Los Angeles added that the newlyweds had not shared any further details about the wedding.
TMZ reported first, on September 30, that Carrey had recently married his girlfriend Min Ah in a small private ceremony in Los Angeles. Its story rested on unnamed “sources familiar” with the wedding. Later that day the spokesperson confirmed the marriage to People, and a representative confirmed it to ABC News, which published its story on October 1.
September 30, 2026, is the date the marriage was confirmed. It is not a reported wedding date. NBC Los Angeles, quoting the spokesperson, placed the ceremony only “in September,” and Page Six wrote on October 1, 2026, that the couple wed “around September 2026.”
Married life has been described by one unnamed person. An insider told People on October 2, 2026, that Carrey and Min Ah have lived together at his Los Angeles home for several years. “They live a very low-key life,” the insider said, adding that she is close with his daughter and that “when he attends major events, she’s by his side.” Carrey has not spoken publicly about the marriage in any of these reports.
How Many Times Has Jim Carrey Been Married?
Jim Carrey has been married three times: to Melissa Womer from 1987 to 1995, to Lauren Holly from 1996 to 1997, and to Min Ah since September 2026. NBC Los Angeles called the 2026 wedding his “third trip down the aisle.”
Melissa Womer, 1987 to 1995
Carrey met Melissa Womer in 1985 at The Comedy Store in Los Angeles, where she worked as a cocktail waitress and he performed stand-up, Page Six reported on October 1, 2026. TMZ described her as a former actress. They married in 1987, before his big break, and their daughter, Jane, was born later that year.
The marriage came under strain once his career took off with In Living Color, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and The Mask, according to Page Six. The couple filed for divorce in 1993, and Page Six reported that it was finalized in 1995 after a contentious court battle. Jane Erin Carrey, now 39 according to People, is his only child.
Lauren Holly, 1996 to 1997
His second wife was Lauren Holly, his co-star in the 1994 comedy Dumb and Dumber. People reported on September 25, 2026, that they married in Los Angeles on September 23, 1996, and listed June 1997 as their separation date. It was a second marriage for both.
Holly first met Carrey during auditions for Ace Ventura, according to the same People article. Page Six reported that the divorce, filed in 1997, cited irreconcilable differences. People called the marriage a “rocky union” in a 2000 feature.
Relationships Between the Marriages
Two of his best-known relationships never reached a wedding. Carrey was engaged to Renée Zellweger, his Me, Myself and Irene co-star, from 1999 to 2000, TV Insider reported. He dated Jenny McCarthy from 2005 to 2010, and Page Six wrote that the pair always maintained they did not want to marry. In 2019 he went public with his Kidding co-star Ginger Gonzaga at the Golden Globes, and Page Six reported their split nine months later.
For years Carrey said he was finished with marriage. “If you’ve done it twice, you really should stop doing it,” he told Britain’s Weekend magazine in 2008, as quoted by People. On Howard Stern’s radio show in 2014 he said, “I just don’t see it as necessary at this point,” though he added that he could not make hard rules about the future, NBC Los Angeles reported.
