Every Clue Fans Missed That Jason Biggs And Jenny Mollen Were Headed For A Split
After 18 years of marriage, Jason Biggs and Jenny Mollen have separated, their rep confirms, noting the pair remain on good terms and focused on raising their two sons.
Jason Biggs and Jenny Mollen just took their rom-com off script: they’ve separated after nearly two decades together. Here’s what happened, plus the little breadcrumbs that, in hindsight, were kind of sitting right there.
What’s official
A rep confirmed on Thursday, May 14, that Biggs, 48, and Mollen, 46, have split after 18 years of marriage. They share two kids: Sid, 12, and Lazlo, 8.
"They are on great terms and remain focused on raising their two boys."
For a quick rewind: they met on the set of the 2007 comedy My Best Friend’s Girl, then eloped in a private ceremony the following year.
The signs were there (if you were paying attention)
- They were pro-therapy, loudly: Throughout the marriage, both were open about couples counseling. Back in 2016, Mollen told People that having a therapist translate their thoughts kept things from sounding like she was parenting him. Biggs, for his part, argued therapy shouldn’t be a last resort but a preemptive move for any marriage. Not exactly a red flag — more like proof they were trying to keep the wheels on.
- Instagram told its own story: In March, they did a joint post to hop on a 90s trend, with Mollen joking she’d accidentally turned Biggs into an 'In Memorandum' — yes, spelled that way — while dropping throwback shots from his movie days. But in recent months, their main feeds didn’t feature many photos of them together. And in May 2025, Biggs marked Mollen’s birthday with a throwback caption about learning she hates surprises after her 30th — and he signed off with: 'Happy 47th, I promise I planned nothing.'
- Working together was… a lot: They teamed up on the 2016 comedy Amateur Night and reunited as cohosts for TBS’s 2024 reboot of the cooking show Dinner and a Movie. Mollen told Us in November 2024 that collaborating with your spouse is tricky because you’re more blunt with each other than you’d ever be with a coworker. She joked with some very NSFW examples, then admitted the casual vibe can be great — and also the kind of thing that sends you right back to couples therapy.
- Parenting pressure points: In a 2018 chat with Today, Mollen said the hardest part of parenting was not turning frustration at the kids into frustration at each other. She also made the very honest point that no matter how perfect you think you’re doing it, your kids will still end up upset by something. By 2022, she was praising Biggs to People as a hands-on dad and a great partner. Relationships contain multitudes.
Where this leaves them
They’re keeping it amicable and kid-focused, per the rep. No messy public back-and-forth, no theatrics — just two people who’ve been unusually candid about the work of marriage now pivoting to the work of co-parenting.
