Marriage To Fred Armisen

Naturally, we have to begin with Elisabeth Moss who plays June in The Handmaid’s Tale. While her costar Jon Hamm of Mad Men was hosting SNL, Elisabeth Moss starred in a skit and met comedian/SNL cast member Fred Armisen. The two began dating, then got engaged four months later, and married in 2009. However, they separated by late 2010 and Elisabeth gave an interview to Page Six Magazine saying, “One of the greatest things I heard someone say about him is, ‘He’s so great at doing impersonations. But the greatest impersonation he does is that of a normal person.’ To me that sums it up.”
