Rolling Stone. “He was like, ‘Hey, I just happened to hear the news about your divorce, and I’ve had a crush on you forever.

I actually told my best friend years ago that you were my dream girl, and I know it sounds crazy, but I want you to be my girlfriend.'”The 42-year-old initially turned down Hader because she “wanted to get her money’s worth” after paying $25 for a dating app.Still wanting a relationship with Wong, Hader did something that alarmed the “Beef” star.The 45-year-old “Saturday Night Live” alum sent flowers to the hotel she was staying at in Europe.

Though her girlfriend thought that action was sweet, it unsettled her male pals.“That’s how cheap and lazy men have become. When a fellow man commits any act of kindness, any romantic gesture, it must be a symptom of an undiagnosed mental illness” Wong explained.

She added she had “never been pursued this much in my life.”In January, Wong made headlines when she kissed the “Barry” actor at the Globes ceremony before she accepted her award for best performance by a female actor in a limited series for “Beef.”During her speech, Wong thanked her now ex-husband, Justin Hakuta.“I really need to thank the father of my children and my best friend Justin for all of your love and support,” the actress gushed at the time. “It’s because of you that I’m able to be a working mother.”Wong and Hakuta married in San Francisco in 2014 and have two daughters — Nikki, 6, and Mari, 8.
