John Mulaney's ex-wife Anna Marie Tendler to release memoir about her 'heartbreak and rage'
Mulaney filed for divorce from Tendler in July 2021 after six years of marriage.
John Mulaney’s ex-wife Anna Marie Tendler is ready to tell her side of the story.
The visual artist and writer announced on social media that she will be releasing her memoir, titled Men Have Called Her Crazy, in August — and she’s not planning on holding anything back. “I have been writing this book for two years,” Tendler wrote. “More accurately though I have been writing it for close to four decades. I have never been more proud of any work.”
She also teased what readers can expect from the upcoming tell-all. “It is a story about mental health; about being a woman; about family,” she explained. “And finally, about the endless source of my heartbreak and rage — men.”
Mulaney, 41, filed for divorce from Tendler after six years of marriage in July 2021. At the time, the pair issued separate statements about their split, with Tendler telling PEOPLE that she was “heartbroken that John has decided to end our marriage.”
Furthering the drama was that, just two days after his divorce announcement, it was revealed Mulaney had begun dating actress Olivia Munn. The Big Mouth star shared four months later that he and Munn were expecting their first child together, and the pair welcomed their son, Malcolm Hiệp Mulaney, that November.
Tendler later reflected on the effect the divorce had on her life it in a 2022 interview with Harper’s Bazaar. “Everything that has transpired has been totally shocking and I think surreal,” she told the outlet. “In a way, I feel like, well, it can only go up from here, because I reached the depth of where I could go."
Last June, Tendler revealed in an Elle essay that she had been “hospitalized for depression, self-harm, and severe suicidal ideation in the first two weeks of 2021,” and credited her late dog, Petunia, for helping her during the difficult time. “The doctors asked me to make a list of my reasons for living,” she wrote in part. “Petunia was the one and only thing on that list.”
Men Have Called Her Crazy is set to hit bookshelves on Aug. 13.
