John Mulaney Speaks Out After Olivia Munn’s Ms. Rachel Comments Led to Violent Threats
John Mulaney is speaking out in defense of his wife Olivia Munn.
After the Newsroom alum remarked that she doesn’t let the couple’s two kids Malcolm, 3, and Méi, 8 months, watch YouTuber Ms. Rachel’s kid-friendly content, the comedian revealed that the statement led to some unexpected criticism.
“An innocent comment my wife Olivia Munn made about what children’s programs we like,” he wrote in a post on his Instagram Stories June 11, “has somehow unbelievably been conflated with not caring about the deaths of children in Gaza.”
The 42-year-old noted that Olivia, 44, had begun receiving DMs with “violent and threatening comments and messages” directed at her and their children.
“The people doing this are so wildly out of line and so unhelpful to any conversation,” he continued. “You took a nothing comment to a dark and dangerous place. This kind of behavior isn’t activism.”
Days earlier, Olivia explained why Ms. Rachel (real name Rachel Griffin Accurso) isn’t an active presence in her household.
