Kathy Griffin, 65, Hard Launches Romance With 22-Year-Old

Kathy Griffin Shares She Was Hospitalized Over Complications From Colonoscopy

Kathy Griffin is giving fans a hell of a story.

Indeed, after previously teasing her romance with a younger man, the Hell of a Story star, 65, shared a look at her and her new boyfriend, who is 43 years her junior.

"He’s 22," Griffin wrote in a July 9 Instagram post that featured a photo of her and a mystery man. "Have at it, internet." She added fire and comet emojis.

In the shot, the comedian and a blonde-haired young man could be seen holding hands, with the gentleman appearing to be ready to open a car door for Griffin.

And the two looked quite the pair. After all, the stylish duo wore coordinated fashion looks. Griffin donned a black deep V midi dress and the man wore a black polo and matching trousers.

Although the My Life on the D-List star just shared a photo from the outing, the shots were taken during a night out in New York City following a Broadway show June 18.

As for her highlighting their significant age gap, well, the Suddenly Susan star's fans are on board with her new relationship.

"He’s 22? Perfect. Old enough to vote, young enough to think Olive Garden is fancy. Go have fun," a user wrote, while a second fan shared, "If he is opening the car door for you, keep him. More class at 22 than most men!"

Even model Courtney Stodden weighed in, commenting, "You’ll always be hot."

As for Griffin, she found her comments section to be comical, writing, "I AM DYING AT THESE COMMENTS," alongside applause and laughing emojis.

Although the Hot Cup of Talk star did not spill any tea about her new boyfriend, she's found love with younger men in the past.

In fact, last year, Griffin revealed she "accidentally fell in love" with a 23-year-old after re-entering the dating world following her 2023 split from her husband Randy Bick, 47.

"He made me feel sexy, special, smart and funny," she told The Cut in a piece published in December. "It had a lot of the elements of what I think would’ve made a real, lasting relationship."

In fact, the Emmy winner doesn't mind being labeled a "cougar."

As Griffin put it, "I kind of am a cougar, which to me just means you have the freedom to choose the person that you want as opposed to the age bracket that society tells you is the only option for you."
