Over the last several years, there have been millions of people who’ve binged The Office thanks to its availability on streaming services. As a result, of The Office’s popularity expanding over the last several years, a lot of people are remembering the best parts of the show. For example, many fans have rediscovered The Office’s best love stories including those involving Jim and Pam, Dwight and Angela, as well as Michael and Holly.
On top of a lot of fans of The Office adoring the show’s fictional love stories, many of them enjoy finding out more about the series stars' real-life relationships. For example, lots of people love learning things like how Emily Blunt and John Krasinski first met. Amazingly, enough, however, while a lot of attention has been paid to John and Emily’s relationship, most fans of The Office seem to know very little about Steve Carell’s marriage. For example, some of them have no idea what Steve’s wife Nancy does for a living.
The Truth About Steve Carell and Nancy Carell’s Marriage
Over the last several decades, there has been a small list of male actors that virtually everyone agrees are among the most attractive people in Hollywood. For example, people like Denzel Washington, Brad Pitt, George Clooney, and Idris Elba are all clearly among that group. More recently, some fans have argued that Steve Carell deserves to be added to that list. After all, Steve only seems to become more handsome with age and the man is hilarious which is a very attractive quality.
Of course, most people will never get the chance to date their favorite star no matter if they are taken or not. With that said, since Steve Carell has been married to Nancy Carell since 1995, it seems clear that the door is permanently closed on his dating life. After all, not only has Steve been married for more than twenty-five years, he seems to absolutely adore his longtime wife from all accounts.
For proof of how much Steve Carell adores his wife Nancy Carell, all you have to do is look at what he said about her when he spoke to Good Housekeeping in 2012. When Steve was asked what the best part of being married is, his response was absolutely adorable. “Having a bond with someone you love and support and knowing they're going to support you.” On the other hand, when Steve was then asked what the worst part of being married is, his response was both funny and relatable. “Deciding what we're going to have for dinner. She likes soup and salad; I like meat and potatoes.”
What Does Nancy Carell Do For a Living?
Long before Steve Carell became rich and famous, he was an unknown performer looking for his big break and doing whatever he could to get by while following his dreams. As a result, Steve took a job teaching an improv class at the Second City Theater in Chicago which is where he met the love of his life. After all, as he revealed during an appearance on Ellen in 2015, Nancy was a student in Steve's class.
Given the fact that Nancy Carell took Steve Carell’s improv class, it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that she has made her living in the entertainment industry for many years. For example, Nancy co-created the TBS show Angie Tribeca with her husband Steve and they managed to convince Rashida Jones to star in the series which was on the air for four seasons.
While Nancy Carell has some experience working behind the camera, she has attained most of her success as a performer. For example, from 1999 until 2002, Nancy appeared in ninety episodes of The Daily Show as a correspondent. On top of that, Nancy is an actor who has popped up in movies like Anger Management, Bridesmaids, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, and Seeking a Friend for the End of the World. On the TV side of things, Nancy has also appeared in several episodes of Saturday Night Live, The Goode Family, and Angie Tribeca.
For people who love The Office, there is one role that Nancy Carell is best known for. After all, Nancy appeared in seven episodes of The Office as Carol Stills, Michael Scott’s realtor turned girlfriend. Since Steve Carell and Nancy have been married for many years and seem to truly adore each other, it makes sense that their characters from The Office had a lot of chemistry when they met. Sadly, however, Michael and Carol’s love wasn’t meant to be as he couldn’t stop himself from embarrassing her enough times that she ended their relationship. Perfect in the role, Nancy’s performance as Carol allowed The Office fans to relate to her character every second she appeared on the screen.
