Leave it to two comedians to hold a wedding on Friday the 13th. Hannah Berner, a standup comedian, producer, and podcast host who first skyrocketed to fame with Summer House, and Des Bishop, the creator of the one-man show Mia Mamma, tied the knot on Friday, May 13, 2022, after two years of dating.

The stars opted for an intimate ceremony in Des's home in the Hamptons, which is located a short drive away from the luxury villa where Summer House is filmed.

Although Hannah has been tight-lipped about her romance since she and Des tied the knot, she gave us the tea on married life and more in an exclusive interview with Distractify. Here’s what she said!

'Ex-Summer House' star Hannah Berner talks her marriage to Des Bishop, comedy career, and more!

Despite Hannah's exit from Summer House — and the tumultuous period preceding it — Hannah invited several of her co-stars to her and Des's wedding. Ciara Miller, Paige DeSorbo, and Craig Conover were just some of the Bravolebs in attendance.

That said, she’s since moved on from a career in reality TV and is pursuing her dreams. She's accumulated more than 2 million followers on TikTok as of this writing, and she has no plans of slowing down. But, Hannah had to admit that being someone’s wifey is “almost off-brand” for her.

“I do think people are surprised to find out I’m married because it's almost off-brand. All I do is talk about relationships and stuff and like de-centering men from your life,” the ex-Summer House star told Distractify.

“But I still live that way,” she continued. “I just happened to find a guy who was just so supportive of my career, and I respect [him] so much like for his brain and he happens to be hot.”

Or, in other words: Issa hot girl summer but my man is coming to pick me up later.

Hannah prefers to keep the details of her relationship private these days, and according to her, there’s a good reason why. Once upon a time, she was entangled in a high-profile reality TV romance with her ex-co-star, Luke Gulbranson, that didn’t end happily ever after.

That said, Hannah won’t make the same mistake in her marriage. Now, she wants to be more known for her comedian genius than salacious gossip. “Because I did do reality TV, I feel like I gave people so much in my personal life,” the TikTok star shared.

“You kind of feel like a little hurt when people you put your relationship out there and like it's not always depicted the right way,” Hannah added.

Much like Hannah, Des is also in the funny business. Here's everything we know about him!

Hannah Berner and her husband, Des Bishop, both work as comedians.

Hannah and Des started dating after things erupted between Hannah and Luke in Season 4 of Summer House. A seasoned comedian and media personality, Des came on board to help Hannah navigate the tense environment inside the luxury villa.

Their 15-year age gap turned out to be an advantage — as Des supplied the 30-year-old star with advice during her time on Summer House. Born in London, U.K., Des spent his formative years in New York and Wexford, Ireland.

He built a lucrative career as a comedian and media personality. Des has appeared on The Late Late Show, Comedy Central at the Comedy Store, and many others. He performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe several times, and he is scheduled to perform Mia Mamma in August 2022.

Des moved to China in 2013. He turned his experiences into a TV show — Des Bishop: Breaking China. He is now a fluent Mandarin Chinese speaker.
