John Mulaney has found himself in the news multiple times since his February 2021 release from a Pennsylvania rehab facility. The famed comedian sold out several shows, announced the end of his marriage to Anna Marie Tendler, and is now rumored to be dating Olivia Munn. It’s been a busy two weeks for the Kid Gorgeous star. While fans now know intimate details of his personal life, do you know how tall the famed comic is?

Mulaney and his wife of six years announced the end of their union in separate statements on May 11. Fans of the comedian theorized that there was trouble in the marriage in December 2020, though. Shortly before Mulaney checked himself into a rehab center in Pennsylvania, the couple unfollowed each other on Instagram. Tendler then deleted her Instagram entirely before quietly returning to the platform in February.

Upon Tendler’s return to the social media platform, she stripped her feed of any evidence of Mulaney. She also removed her married name from her profile. Mulaney was released from in-patient care in February, as well. He has remained quiet on social media but recently performed sold-out shows in New York as his first standup performances since 2020. Tendler made it clear that Mulaney was the party interested in divorce in her statement. Mulaney has declined to discuss the situation further. 

How tall is John Mulaney? 

While Mulaney and Tendler are now headed for divorce, fans of the couple noticed that they appeared to have a serious height discrepancy. When photographed on red carpets, Tendler often appeared tiny in comparison. So, is the standup comic particularly tall? He’s definitely taller than average. Mulaney has repeatedly stated that he is six feet tall. 

That doesn’t mean he is satisfied with his height, though. Mulaney poked fun at Timothée Chalamet for his height on a Netflix special. In the bit, Mulaney explained that Tendler had a crush on Chalamet and pointed out that he was 6’1. According to W Magazine, Mulaney insisted that he did the research and found out that Chalamet was 5’11, making him an inch shorter than Mulaney, not an inch taller. As it turns out, Chalamet and Mulaney might be the exact same height. 

How tall is John Mulaney’s wife, Anna Marie Tendler? 

Mulaney has publicly acknowledged his height, but Tendler has not done the same. In photos, Tendler appears to be substantially shorter than her soon-to-be-ex. Is she that much shorter than him or shorter than average?

According to several sources, Tendler might be taller than the average woman in the United States. Healthline reports that the average American woman is 5’4 inches tall. According to media sources, Tendler is 5’6. That means that, while she’s taller than the average woman, she is still six inches shorter than her husband. Not everyone is convinced that Tendler is 5’6. Some believe the makeup artist could be under 5’2. Fans will need the makeup artist to weigh in to be sure.
