Hollywood star Jim Carrey has tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend Min Ah. A spokesperson for the 64-year-old actor confirmed the marriage to PEOPLE on Wednesday, September 30. The couple has largely kept their relationship away from the spotlight, making their public appearances together relatively rare. Their marriage comes seven months after they were photographed together in France while attending the César Awards.
Jim Carrey’s sweet tribute to Min Ah
During the César Awards, Jim spoke about Min Ah from the stage, referring to her as his “companion” in a speech he delivered entirely in French. He thanked his family during his speech, including his daughter Jane and grandson Jackson, before turning to Min Ah.
“Thank you to my wonderful family, my daughter Jane, and my grandson Jackson. I love you now and forever. Thank you to my sublime companion, Min Ah,” he said in French, as his daughter, grandson and girlfriend received ovations from the crowd. “I love you, Min Ah. And finally, thank you to the funniest man I have ever known: my father, Percy Joseph Carrey who taught me the value of love, generosity, and laughter.”
Jim and Min Ah have reportedly been together for at least a few years. In February 2022, Just Jared published photographs of the couple leaving a charity comedy show hosted by Judd Apatow at Largo in Los Angeles.
The actor has otherwise stayed fairly quiet about his personal life. In April 2022, while promoting Sonic the Hedgehog 2, he spoke to Access Hollywood about the possibility of stepping away from acting and spending more time enjoying a quieter life. When asked if he was serious, he replied, “I'm being fairly serious.”

He also spoke about how much he enjoyed life away from the demands of Hollywood, particularly painting, spending time with his family and focusing on his spiritual life. “I really like my quiet life, and I really love putting paint on canvas, and I really love my spiritual life, and I feel like — and this is something you might never hear another celebrity say as long as time exists – I have enough,” he said.
Carrey’s previous marriages and relationships
Before Min Ah, the actor was in a relationship with his Kidding co-star Ginger Gonzaga. The two made their first red carpet appearance together in January 2019 at the Showtime Golden Globes Nominees Celebration in West Hollywood, California. By October that year, Us Weekly reported that the pair had separated after less than a year together.
The Mask star was previously married to Lauren Holly, his Dumb and Dumber co-star. They married in 1996 and divorced the following year. His first marriage was to Melissa Womer, with whom he shares daughter Jane. They were married from 1987 to 1995.
Jim Carrey is returning to major studio films
Warner Bros. Discovery confirmed in August that Jim Carrey will headline a live-action adaptation of the classic animated series The Jetsons. The movie has been in development for years and will mark his first major studio live-action project outside the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise in more than a decade.
Colin Trevorrow is in talks to direct and co-write the film with Joe Epstein, according to earlier reports. The original The Jetsons premiered in 1962 and followed George Jetson and his family as they navigated life in the futuristic Orbit City.
He is also expected to return as Dr. Robotnik in Sonic the Hedgehog 4, which is scheduled to arrive in 2027. There have also been reports of a possible sequel to How the Grinch Stole Christmas, in which he played the iconic green character in the 2000 film.
