Nikki Glaser, a comedic powerhouse known for her raw humor and brutal celebrity roasts, has lived a life as eventful as her career. With over 20 years in the entertainment industry, she’s certainly had her fair share of relationships, many of which she’s opened up about in her routines, interviews, and on her podcast. From past boyfriends to her current romance, here’s everything to know about Nikki’s dating history.
Nikki Glaser’s Boyfriends
Currently, Nikki is dating TV producer Chris Convy. Their relationship has been a rollercoaster of on-again, off-again moments for over a decade. They first met in 2013 when they worked together on Nikki’s MTV show, Nikki & Sara Live. Nikki has shared that she had a crush on Chris for a while before they eventually got together. In a 2022 interview with Graham Bensinger, Nikki likened her initial feelings for Chris to the dynamic between Jim and Pam from The Office, with her pining for him from afar.
In a 2024 interview with Howard Stern, Nikki opened up about the challenges in their relationship, especially the repeated breakups. She explained that their on-and-off relationship might stem from her reluctance to commit permanently. She reflected on how the idea of forever sometimes felt limiting, as if it meant no more adventures. Despite their tumultuous past, Nikki confirmed that she’s in love with Chris, and they’ve worked through their issues.
Before Chris, Nikki had a brief situationship with fellow comedian Pete Lee. They met in Kansas City when Nikki was performing a guest set, and Pete was featuring for another comic. Nikki shared on her You Up radio show in 2018 that Pete was her first love, but their fling ended when he chose to stay with his girlfriend in New York, leading to Nikki’s frustration for nearly a decade. Despite the bitterness, they eventually reconnected as friends.
In late 2019, Nikki revealed on You Up that she briefly dated comedian and actor Dan Soder, just before he entered into a relationship with her friend, Hannah Berner. While Nikki admitted to feeling jealous of Hannah’s relationship with Dan, the three shared a laugh about being “eskimo sisters” in an open conversation about their experiences.
Nikki’s Journey with Drinking and How It Affected Her Dating Life
Nikki’s relationship with alcohol has played a significant role in her dating history. She admitted during her 2024 Howard Stern interview that she once used drinking to calm her anxieties, particularly around sex. However, after quitting drinking in 2011, Nikki took a break from dating and sex for several years. In her radio interview, she described how her anxiety about intimacy led to her withdrawing from hookups. It wasn’t until she had to truly get to know and like someone that she felt comfortable enough to be intimate again. The first person Nikki hooked up with after quitting drinking is now her current partner, Chris Convy, which shows the depth of their relationship and the meaningful connection they’ve built since Nikki embraced sobriety.
Today
Today, Nikki seems to be in a stable relationship with Chris, despite their past breakups. It’s clear that she’s found a deeper connection, one built on more than just physical attraction or drinking-induced passion. Nikki’s candidness about her dating life, her past relationships, and her struggles with addiction has made her a relatable figure to many of her fans, and she continues to be a trailblazer in comedy. With her unfiltered humor and unapologetic honesty, Nikki Glaser is undoubtedly someone who’s embraced her journey — in both her career and her personal life.
