Not all famous people enjoy the trappings of celebrity life. Some prefer to keep a low profile, especially when airing issues pertaining to their private life in public. One such personality is Andrew Santino.
Although he has earned himself a coveted spot among the most talented comedians, Santino has remained tightlipped on his marital affairs. He’s particularly secretive about the identity of his wife.
So, who’s the mysterious woman who captured the comedian’s heart? Read on to find out.
Introducing Andrew Santino
Andrew James Santino is an American stand-up comedian, actor, and podcast host.
Santino released his first stand-up special, titled ‘Home Field Advantage,’ in 2018 through Amazon Prime. His second stand-up special, ‘Cheeseburger,’ was released in 2023 through Netflix.
As an actor, Andrew Santino is best known for his role on the comedy-drama television series I’m Dying Up Here (2017 – 2018) and the sitcom drama Dave (2020 – present). He also had a recurring role in the sitcom series Sin City Saints (2015), the NBC family drama series This Is Us (2016 – 2022), and as a voice actor in the adult animated sitcom Ten Year Old Tom (2021 – 2023). His noteworthy film appearances include Dean (2016), Little Bitches (2018), Friendsgiving (2020), House Party (2023), and Fool’s Paradise (2023).
Andrew Santino produces and hosts the ‘Whiskey Ginger’ podcast. He also co-hosts the ‘Bad Friends’ podcast alongside his friend Bobby Lee.
Andrew Santino’s Wife
While Andrew Santino’s name resounds loudly in the entertainment industry, the opposite is true about his wife.
It’s public knowledge that the Arizona State University alumnus is a married man. But his wife’s identity has eluded his fans for years.
Despite being considerably famous himself, Santino has never revealed the name of his wife publicly.
The comedian rarely discusses his marital affairs in public. He doesn’t post pictures of his wife on social media either. So, it may be long before her identity becomes public.
When Did Andrew Santino Meet His Wife?

There’s no public information on when and where Andrew Santino met his wife. We’re yet to find out how long the couple dated before becoming engaged. Perhaps this is part of the comedian’s strategy to keep his private affairs away from public scrutiny.
However, Santino has shared some intriguing information on how the couple’s friendship developed into a love affair.
It turns out that neither Andrew nor his wife wanted to settle down. They were both focused on pursuing their respective careers.
Santino has also mentioned that the couple attended joint therapy sessions whenever they faced ups and downs in their relationship. And for some reason, they both disliked the therapist. Their mutual resentment for the relationship counselor might have played a further role in bonding them together.
Before quitting the therapy sessions, Andrew also discovered that his wife had a great sense of humor and might make an excellent long-term partner. Apparently, a trash truck pulled up outside the window during one of their sessions. One guy yelled incoherently, leaving the couple in stitches. Although their rather stoic therapist had no idea why Santino and his partner were laughing, the comedian had one more reason to like his fiancéé.
When Did Andrew Santino Marry?
While we may not chronicle Santino’s relationship journey up until the point of marriage, we at least know that the couple tied the knot around 2015.
Note that Santino is yet to give the exact date of their wedding. In fact, he hasn’t categorically cited 2015 as the year they walked down the aisle.
So, how did we figure that out?
Well, during a 2019 podcast, the comedian stated that he had been married for nearly four years. That means the couple likely wedded in 2015.
Do We Know Anything About Andrew Santino’s Marriage?
Since very little about Andrew Santino’s private life leaks to the public, it’s almost impossible to get insights into his marital life. We can but rely on the much (or little) the comedian has revealed to the public.
Commenting in a previous podcast episode, Santino mentioned that they rarely have misunderstandings but when they do, he always apologizes to his wife. That portrays him as a caring and empathetic husband.
Why Is Andrew Santino’s Wife So Elusive?
There are several reasons Andrew Santino’s identity hasn’t hit the mainstream media.
For starters, Santino has never disclosed his wife’s identity. On the rare occasions when he discusses his marital affairs in podcasts and interviews, he only refers to her with terms like “she,” “her,” or “my wife.”
Another reason we may never get to know the name of Santino’s wife anytime soon is that she appears disinterested in the entertainment industry. She probably has a different career path from her husband or just doesn’t fancy the spotlight. The comedian actually confessed in a previous interview that keeping their relationship secret is necessary as they have different interests and hobbies that keep them engaged. So, even if the woman has a social media presence, she’s not keen on identifying as Santino’s significant other.
Lastly, both Santino and his wife seem to have made a mutual pact to keep their marital life to themselves. The couple probably reckoned that their public persona might derail their respective careers. Keeping her identity secret is also an ingenious way Santino’s wife manages to keep the paparazzi at bay whenever she ventures outdoors.
