Olivia Munn revealed that her marriage to John Mulaney began with a hilarious proposal story that involved a lie from her side. The “X-Men: Apocalypse” actor recently made a guest appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” During her conversation with the show’s host, Jimmy Fallon, Munn talked about how she had to keep lying to her now-husband right before their marriage proposal and even after it.
Olivia Munn ‘tripled down’ on a lie after John Mulaney proposal
While appearing as a guest on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” Olivia Munn disclosed that she “tripled down” on a hilarious lie after John Mulaney proposed. The actor candidly shared the story, revealing that before the proposal, her best friend, Corrine, called her to check if she needed anything specific for her marriage proposal. It was the actor’s now-husband, John Mulaney, who put Corrine to the task since he wanted to surprise Munn with a proposal that would make her happy.
However, when Corrine called and asked Munn whether she was alone, she “immediately betrayed” her trust by telling Mulaney that Corrine wanted to tell her “something really interesting,” not knowing it was about nothing but their proposal plan. Munn explained that after hearing her best friend’s words, she was “freaking out.” She said, “I just told him that she called me and wants to talk to me. Now Corrine’s going to get in trouble.”
Thus, to hide what her best friend actually talked to her about on the phone, Munn came up with a lie. The actor told Mulaney that Corrine’s “having really bad trouble in her marriage.” After that proposal was over, Mulaney told Munn that he knew that the talk about Corrine’s marriage trouble was “a lie.” However, Munn revealed that she didn’t want to get caught, so she insisted that it wasn’t a lie and that Corrine was having trouble in her marriage. However, Munn later decided to come clean both to her husband and longtime friend, Corrine.
