For decades, Jim Carrey has been one of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood. His exaggerated expressions, physical comedy and unforgettable performances turned him into an international star, yet one important part of his life managed to remain almost completely outside the spotlight.
Now, at 64, Carrey is married again.
The Mask and Truman Show star recently married his longtime partner, Min Ah, in a small private ceremony in Los Angeles. His representative confirmed the marriage, but the couple has chosen not to disclose the exact wedding date, venue or other intimate details. People.com
It is Carrey’s third marriage—and perhaps his most private.
What makes the news especially surprising is that many fans had barely heard of Min Ah until earlier this year. The couple kept their romance so far outside the public eye that their February 2026 appearance at the César Awards in Paris was considered their official public debut.
But RARE PHOTOS reveal they had actually been seen together years earlier, long before Carrey publicly acknowledged their relationship.
Their relationship existed quietly for years
Exactly when Carrey and Min Ah began dating remains unknown.
What has been established is that they were photographed together in Los Angeles as far back as February 2022, after attending a benefit comedy show. Yet they did not turn those appearances into a public relationship announcement. InStyle
For approximately four years, they maintained an unusually low profile.
Min Ah, also known as Minzi, has been described as an actress and multidisciplinary artist based in Los Angeles. She has not built the kind of celebrity presence usually associated with the partner of an A-list Hollywood star. People.com
That privacy appears to have extended naturally into her relationship with Carrey.
There were no regular couple updates.
No stream of romantic social-media photographs.
No public chronicle of anniversaries or vacations.
Instead, their relationship developed largely beyond the cameras.
That changed dramatically in Paris.
The night Carrey finally introduced the woman he loved
On February 26, 2026, Carrey attended the César Awards to receive an honorary award recognizing his career.
Min Ah was there.
So were Carrey’s daughter Jane and grandson Jackson.
For the first time, the woman who had quietly shared Carrey’s life for years was standing beside him at one of the most important public events of his career. ABC News
The RARE PHOTOS from that evening suddenly carry much greater significance.
Carrey appeared in an elegant black suit while Min Ah wore a strapless dark gown. They posed together, held hands and allowed photographers to capture a relationship they had spent years keeping private.
But the most revealing moment came from Carrey himself.
During his acceptance speech, which he delivered in French, he thanked his daughter and grandson before turning his attention to Min Ah.
He described her as his “sublime companion” and publicly told her that he loved her. ABC News
For someone who had guarded the relationship for years, it was an unusually personal declaration.
Seven months later, they were married.
An extremely private Los Angeles wedding
Carrey and Min Ah’s wedding appears to have followed the same philosophy as their relationship.
Small.
Private.
And largely protected from public view.
Carrey’s representative confirmed that the couple married in Los Angeles, while reports described the ceremony as intimate. Additional details have deliberately remained under wraps. Los Angeles Times
No extensive wedding album has been released publicly.
The exact location has not been disclosed.
The complete guest list remains unknown.
Even the precise wedding date has not been publicly confirmed.
For a celebrity wedding, that is remarkable.
Hollywood marriages frequently become carefully orchestrated public events, complete with exclusive photographs, designer details and social-media announcements.
Carrey and Min Ah did virtually the opposite.
The world discovered they were married only after it had already happened.
Marriage once seemed unlikely for Carrey
The wedding is even more significant when viewed against something Carrey said years earlier.
After two marriages ended in divorce, the actor indicated in a 2014 interview that he wasn’t particularly interested in voluntarily marrying again.
But he left one possibility open.
Carrey acknowledged that he couldn’t create an absolute rule for the future because he didn’t know how he might feel if he met someone who completely changed his perspective. InStyle
More than a decade later, that exception appears to have arrived.
Min Ah is now his wife.
And Carrey’s decision means he has walked down the aisle again nearly 30 years after his second marriage ended.
His first marriage began before superstardom
Carrey’s romantic history stretches back to a very different period of his life.
In 1987, he married Melissa Womer.
At the time, Carrey had not yet become the global movie star audiences would eventually know. His enormous Hollywood breakthrough was still years away.
The couple welcomed their daughter, Jane Erin Carrey, the same year they married.
As Carrey’s career accelerated, his life changed dramatically.
By the early 1990s, In Living Color had introduced his extraordinary physical comedy to a national audience.
Then 1994 happened.
Within a single year, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Mask and Dumb and Dumber transformed Carrey from a successful comedian into one of the biggest stars in Hollywood.
His marriage to Womer ended in 1995 after eight years. ABC News
His second marriage was dramatically shorter
Only a year later, Carrey married again.
His second wife was actress Lauren Holly, his Dumb and Dumber costar.
Their relationship had attracted considerable attention because audiences already knew them together onscreen as Lloyd Christmas and Mary Swanson.
They married in 1996.
But the marriage lasted less than a year, ending in 1997. Los Angeles Times
Afterward, Carrey had several notable relationships, but another marriage never followed.
Nearly three decades passed.
Famous romances, but no third wedding
Carrey’s romantic history after Lauren Holly included several recognizable names.
He became engaged to Renée Zellweger after they worked together on Me, Myself & Irene. He later had a long relationship with Jenny McCarthy.
He was also linked to Ginger Gonzaga, his Kidding costar, in 2019. Page Six
There were relationships.
There were red carpets.
There were breakups.
But there was no third wife.
Carrey appeared increasingly comfortable keeping his personal life separate from the public persona that had followed him since the 1990s.
Then Min Ah entered the picture.
A very different Jim Carrey
The Carrey who apparently began his relationship with Min Ah around the early 2020s was not the same man who had become Hollywood’s biggest comedy star three decades earlier.
His priorities had shifted.
Carrey increasingly devoted himself to painting and other creative pursuits away from filmmaking.
In 2022, he even spoke about potentially stepping away from acting, saying he enjoyed his quieter life and felt he had accomplished enough. People.com
That same year provides the earliest publicly reported photographs of Carrey and Min Ah together.
The timing is intriguing.
As Carrey retreated further from the machinery of Hollywood celebrity, his relationship with Min Ah was developing almost completely outside it.
Rather than making their romance part of his public image, the two apparently protected it.
For years.
Who is Min Ah?
That question suddenly became much more interesting when the marriage was announced.
Despite being with Carrey for years, Min Ah remains a relatively private figure.
She is reportedly an actress and artist living in Los Angeles and also uses the name Minzi. People.com
Even basic details about their relationship remain unknown.
The couple has not publicly explained exactly how they met.
They have not confirmed the date they began dating.
And Min Ah has not suddenly embraced the celebrity spotlight following their marriage.
That makes the RARE PHOTOS of her with Carrey particularly interesting.
There simply aren’t many public images documenting their relationship.
Their César photographs now mean something different
When Carrey and Min Ah arrived at the César Awards in February, the images were notable because they represented a rare public appearance.
Now they effectively serve as photographs from the final months before their marriage.
One especially meaningful image shows Carrey surrounded by three important people in his personal life: his daughter Jane, his grandson Jackson and Min Ah.
The photograph brings together multiple generations of his family just months before Min Ah officially became part of it through marriage. Global News
Another image shows Carrey and Min Ah holding hands.
Others capture them smiling together following the ceremony.
For a couple that had been seen publicly so rarely, those photographs now form an unusually important part of their relationship timeline.
The 32-year age difference attracts attention
Another detail has inevitably become part of the headlines.
Carrey is 64, while Min Ah has been widely reported as 32. InStyle
That puts approximately 32 years between them.
Neither Carrey nor Min Ah, however, has publicly made their age difference a defining feature of their relationship.
The limited public comments Carrey has made about her have instead been affectionate.
His César speech remains the clearest example.
After years of silence about their relationship, he stood onstage during one of the most prestigious nights of his career and publicly acknowledged her as someone deeply important to him.
The marriage followed months later.
Why the secrecy makes sense
For Carrey, privacy appears to have become increasingly valuable with age.
His earliest decades of fame unfolded during an era when celebrity culture could be relentless.
His movies were enormous.
His relationships became headlines.
His breakups became headlines.
Even periods of grief in his private life became subjects of intense public coverage.
By contrast, his relationship with Min Ah developed during a period when he had already begun stepping away from constant exposure.
That may help explain why the two were able to maintain such an unusually private relationship.
They weren’t selling a romance.
They were living one.
Nearly three decades between weddings
Carrey’s second marriage ended in 1997.
His third arrived in 2026.
That gap spans almost 30 years.
Consider everything that happened in between.
Carrey starred in The Truman Show.
He played Andy Kaufman in Man on the Moon.
He became the Grinch.
He starred in Bruce Almighty.
He gave one of his most acclaimed dramatic performances in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
His daughter grew up.
He became a grandfather.
His relationship with Hollywood changed.
He became increasingly devoted to painting.
And through all of it, he never married again.
Until now.
The wedding details we still don’t know
Ironically, a story about one of Hollywood’s most famous performers is defined partly by how little the public knows.
Carrey and Min Ah were married in Los Angeles.
It was a small private ceremony.
His representative has confirmed that much.
Beyond those basic facts, the couple has kept the details to themselves. Los Angeles Times
There is currently no confirmed public account of the exact venue.
No detailed description of Min Ah’s wedding dress.
No verified complete guest list.
No elaborate explanation of the ceremony.
And perhaps that’s exactly how they wanted it.
Rare photographs reveal the relationship the public barely saw
The limited photographs available from Carrey and Min Ah’s years together now tell a surprisingly complete story when placed chronologically.
First come the RARE PHOTOS from 2022, when they were seen together but their relationship remained largely unexplained.
Then there is silence.
Years pass.
Finally, February 2026 brings their official public appearance in Paris.
Min Ah sits alongside Carrey’s family.
Carrey accepts one of the great honors of his career.
And from the stage, he tells her he loves her.
Seven months later, news breaks that they have married privately in Los Angeles.
It’s a remarkably understated relationship timeline for someone whose face has been recognized around the world for more than 30 years.
The exception to his own rule
Perhaps the most fitting detail comes from Carrey himself.
Long before Min Ah became part of his life, he had already suggested that another marriage wasn’t something he expected to pursue.
But he refused to make the rule absolute.
He knew there was one variable nobody could predict: meeting someone extraordinary enough to change his mind. InStyle
Years later, Carrey has chosen marriage again.
At 64.
After two divorces.
After decades of famous relationships.
After almost 30 years without another wedding.
And after keeping the woman beside him so private that much of the world didn’t even realize how long they had been together.
The comedian who spent his career making himself impossible to ignore somehow managed to keep one of the biggest chapters of his personal life almost completely hidden.
Now the RARE PHOTOS that do exist reveal the quiet progression—from an almost unnoticed outing in 2022, to a loving public declaration in Paris, and finally to a private Los Angeles wedding.
Jim Carrey is a husband for the third time.
But unlike so much of his extraordinary life, this time the biggest moment happened almost entirely away from the cameras.
