The comedian, who revealed the intervention that ended with him entering rehab in his Emmy-winning Netflix special Baby J, explained: “There was a time when I would have told them I couldn’t fly, sleep or perform unless I had a Klonopin.’

“I would have said, ‘It sucks because I don’t always want to take Klonopin and Xanax, but I have to.’

Munn and Mulaney had only been dating for a short time when she became pregnant with their first child.

“It was like seeing a man in a tsunami,” he said.

“I was watching someone newly sober, on the edge of a cliff, and I didn’t know him well enough to help him.”

The couple, who married over the Fourth of July weekend, also told the magazine that they agreed to raise Malcolm as a couple just two months before he was born.

Munn was diagnosed with breast cancer in April 2023 and underwent a double mastectomy and hysterectomy.

The surgery and treatment made it difficult for the Violet actress to care for her family the way she was used to, but Mulaney stepped in for her, she said in the Today show.

“John is just the most wonderful husband and father, so we find a way to make it all work despite how tired I can be at all times.”

The couple told the magazine that Munn staged a mini-intervention when she was about six months pregnant with their first child, Malcolm, almost three, and the two decided drug testing was a way to hold him accountable.
