Months after seemingly hard launching her latest relationship, Kathy Griffin is keeping fans on their toes. On July 9, the comedian shared a cheeky Instagram photo featuring a different love interest, though this time, he’s 43 years her junior.
“He’s 22. Have at it, internet,” Griffin captioned the snap, which showed the two holding hands as he opened a car door for her.

The My Life on the D-List alum, 65, got a kick out of the response from her followers: “I AM DYING AT THESE COMMENTS,” she wrote.
“Since they all eventually act like five-year-olds anyway, might as well go for shiny and new,” one fan commented. “If anyone complains about the age gap, remind them Leonardo DiCaprio walked so you could sprint,” another added.

Back in May, Griffin announced that she was dating someone new in a different Instagram post. “We’re insta official. Deal with it. (to any straight guy that is secretly hot for me, but is afraid of what his ‘bro’ friends would say),” the actress captioned her since-deleted photo.
While Griffin kept the identity of her new partner private, she did confirm that he wasn’t a celebrity. “No. Not famous,” she wrote in response to a fan comment. “Not in the entertainment industry at all.”

Griffin was previously married to marketing executive Randy Bick. They tied the knot in 2020 after eight years of dating. In 2023, Griffin filed for divorce, which was finalized in 2025.
“My divorce took me out,” she confessed to People. “I’m not going to lie. Some people are like, ‘I was glad I got rid of them, and I’ve never felt better.’ I was down for the count. It was harder than cancer,” she explained, referencing previous lung cancer diagnosis.
