Marriage and family
If you have been asking – who is Wanda Sykes married to? The actress and comedian is married to Alex Niedbalski. They have been together for 14 years.
The comedian met Alex on a ferry ride to a New York gay resort named Fire Island. She noticed a woman with a computer bag talking to a baby, and she instantly admired her but did not approach her and knew that she was the kind of woman she needed in her life.
At that time, Sykes wanted to get her kitchen redone, and she seemed to have been telling everyone about it to the point where her friends had to tell her to stop talking about her kitchen renovation to every stranger she met.
She did not take her friends' advice as she went about her kitchen renovation to people. Eventually, she met someone who introduced her to a French woman who sold granite countertops.
The French woman happened to be Alex Niedbalski, the same woman that the actress noticed on the ferry to Fire Island. The comedian found out that Alex was single, and they hit it off immediately.
Alex and Wanda dated for two years before they got married in an intimate ceremony in Las Vegas in 2008. One month after their wedding, Wanda publicly came out during a rally against a law that banned homosexual marriage.
Not every member of Wanda Sykes family was pleased with her decision to marry a woman, as her mom did not attend her wedding. Wanda’s family has since warmed up to Alex and Wanda.
Wanda told The Guardian,
They really embrace what it is to be a Christian. My father’s sister, who’s the oldest, she was like, 'You know God loves you and God loves your family, don’t you let anybody tell you otherwise.' It's like, wow, OK, good. This is how it’s supposed to be.
On April 27, 2009, Wanda sykes and wife welcomed a set of twins, Olivia Lou and Lucas Claude. Wanda and Alex Sykes kids are fraternal twins. Also, the twins were carried by Alex.
Wanda and her family split their time between Los Angeles and suburban Philadelphia. They also visit Alex’s family in France regularly.
Olivia Lou and Lucas Claude are white, and they speak French and English. In an interview with The New York Times, Wanda stated how she, as a black woman, is raising white children. She said,
“You want it to be a world where they can just live and be good people and not have to think about that, but you have to have the conversation. You do. When something comes up you have to address it… I’m just raising them how I was raised. Hopefully they won’t get a taste of white privilege.”
Before meeting Alex, Wanda was married to music producer Dave Hill in 1991. Their matrimony ended in 1998.
