Millions of retweet followed his comment, with many of his fans wanting to know more about his wife and marriage. Tosh in his nature didn’t answer any of the questions asked, instead, he chose to leave his fans with mere speculations. The comedian made a similar tweet in August 2017 when he talked about his ballerina wife needing some care because she’s been injured. His comment attracted more questions with many asking for her photograph as proof. In the end, his Twitter comment turned out to be a prank.

To clear all doubts about his love life, Daniel Tosh is indeed a married man. He is married to a writer cum actress named Carly Hallam. Carly is perhaps best known for her contributions to Tosh.0 and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. The couple got hitched in a private ceremony held in Malibu, California, on April 15, 2016. Their union has eventually been kept hush-hush for roughly two years before the public got to know about it, thanks to inside sources who made this possible.

Before his relationship with Hallam, Tosh has reportedly dated actress Megan Abrigo. He opened up about his relationship with the actress on his comedy special, Happy Thoughts. They even allowed themselves to be seen together publicly at events and other locations such as the Gansevoort South hotel in Miami Beach, Florida. However, they later separated with no valid reason. As a result, there were speculations that they broke up as a result of Tosh’s impolite jokes about her, though it was never confirmed.
