Jim Carrey Marries Min Ah in a Private Los Angeles Ceremony
A representative confirmed the marriage on September 30. The news follows the couple's César Awards debut and years of keeping their relationship largely private.
Jim Carrey has married his longtime partner Min Ah, a spokesperson confirmed to PEOPLE on September 30, 2026. Entertainment Weekly also reported confirmation from his representative, while attributing the account of a small, private Los Angeles ceremony to TMZ.

September 30 is the date of the public confirmation. The reports reviewed do not establish it as the date the couple exchanged vows. A precise wedding date, venue and guest list have not been confirmed in those accounts.
The news follows their February appearance at the César Awards in Paris, where Carrey publicly thanked Min Ah while accepting an honorary prize. For a relationship that has largely remained outside the spotlight, the speech offered an unusually direct acknowledgment in the actor's own words.

FROM 2022 SIGHTINGS TO A PUBLIC DEBUT
Published photographs place Carrey and Min Ah together as far back as February 2022. Parade's account of their timeline, citing PEOPLE and Just Jared, described them leaving a charity comedy show hosted by Judd Apatow at Largo in Los Angeles.

That sighting is a documented point in the public record, not a verified date for the beginning of their romance. The reporting does not establish when they met or precisely when they began dating. Their subsequent appearance as a couple at a major awards ceremony made the relationship more public without supplying those missing details.
HIS 'SUBLIME COMPANION' AT THE CÉSAR AWARDS
On February 26, 2026, Carrey attended the César Awards at the Olympia in Paris with Min Ah, his daughter Jane and grandson Jackson. The occasion marked the couple's public awards-show debut. Carrey accepted the Honorary César, a recognition also recorded in the French academy's official archive.

In a speech delivered in French, he called Min Ah his "sublime companion" and added, "I love you, Min Ah." He also thanked his daughter and grandson and paid tribute to his late father, Percy Joseph Carrey. The academy hosts a recording of the acceptance speech.

The distinction matters: these were public remarks at an awards ceremony. They were not an engagement announcement or a disclosure of wedding plans. The marriage confirmation arrived months later.
A RELATIONSHIP KEPT LARGELY PRIVATE
Entertainment Weekly's report describes a relationship whose details have remained scarce despite sightings dating back to 2022. The representative's confirmation establishes the marriage; it does not provide a wider account of their life together.

Their public record reflects a largely private relationship, but the available statements do not explain a joint decision or the reasons behind it. There is no basis here to assign Min Ah an age, nationality, family background or personal history that the reliable reporting has not established.
The same balance between public milestones and personal boundaries features in PRESDA's story of Zendaya and Tom Holland. For Carrey and Min Ah, the verified story rests on the marriage confirmation, earlier photographs and his public acknowledgment in Paris.
TWO PREVIOUS MARRIAGES AND HIS FAMILY
Carrey married Melissa Womer in 1987. They share daughter Jane, and their divorce was finalised in 1995. He then married Lauren Holly, his Dumb and Dumber co-star, in September 1996. That marriage lasted less than a year. Nine: Jim Carrey's marriage and family history
Jane and her son Jackson were among the family members present at the César ceremony. Their attendance and Carrey's thanks from the stage are documented; they do not establish who attended the private wedding. PEOPLE: spokesperson confirms marriage, September 30, 2026, via Yahoo
The marriage to Min Ah is Carrey's third. His previous marriages provide biographical context, but they do not explain the choices he and Min Ah have made.
WHAT HE PREVIOUSLY SAID ABOUT MARRYING AGAIN
In an October 2014 interview with Howard Stern, Carrey expressed little interest in another marriage. ABC News quoted him saying, "I just don't see it as necessary, at this point." The phrasing reflected his view at that time, rather than a statement about a future partner. ABC News: Carrey's comments to Howard Stern, October 28, 2014
Those comments now form part of the history surrounding the announcement. They do not establish why his position changed, and neither the confirmation nor his César speech supplies that explanation.
A CAREER HONOUR AND SELECTIVE PUBLIC APPEARANCES
The César recognition celebrated a career that began in Canadian stand-up, continued through television's In Living Color and reached a defining breakthrough in 1994 with Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Mask and Dumb and Dumber. The academy's tribute highlighted that progression and his distinctive performance style. Académie des César: career tribute announcing Carrey's honorary award
His recent screen work includes Sonic the Hedgehog 3, in which Paramount credits him as both Ivo Robotnik and Gerald Robotnik. That dual role brought his physical comedy to another generation of viewers. Paramount: Sonic the Hedgehog 3 cast and production details
Carrey also appeared at the 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony to induct Soundgarden. The institution's official recording documents his tribute to the band. He was the induction speaker, not an inductee himself. Rock & Roll Hall of Fame: Carrey inducts Soundgarden in 2025
Together with the César appearance, those events show a continuing public presence built around selected projects and honours. The marriage announcement adds a confirmed personal milestone, without turning the couple's private life into an open record.
