Bill Hader and Maggie Carey were incredibly private about their relationship, but in 2015, Hader revealed to Elle that he got everything down on lock with Carey despite a few road bumps here and there. “I never liked the saying “Relationships are a lot of work.” I’m not saying we don’t have stresses,” he told the outlet. “But I have friends who are like, “I got kicked out of the house again.” It’s like, Jesus Christ. I thought that happened on sitcoms because it moved the story forward.”
But two years later, their reps confirmed that they called it quits, with The Blast reporting that the “Barry” star listed irreconcilable differences as the key cause for the divorce. At the time, Hader sought to have joint custody of their children and was more than willing to provide spousal support for his ex. And while neither party opened up about the real reason behind the split, the comedian shared with Variety that there’s absolutely no animosity between them. “I’m friends with my ex-wife,” he said.

Hader also admitted that the only thing he hated about the split was that he no longer gets the chance to be with his daughters as much as he liked. “It’s this weird thing where when you’re in this industry, you don’t have time to be with them, and it’s really, really difficult,” he confessed.
