Nikki Glaser, the renowned comedian, has been in an on-and-off relationship with Chris Convy, a talented producer, for over a decade. The two first crossed paths when they worked together on Glaser’s MTV talk show, “Nikki & Sara Live,” in 2013.
Since then, their relationship has been a rollercoaster ride, with several breakups and reconciliations, but their love for each other has remained strong.
Who Is Chris Convy:
Chris Convy has been a prolific producer, working on various TV projects since the early 2000s. He has been involved in the production of high-profile award shows, such as the MTV Video Music Awards, Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards, and the iHeartRadio Music Awards.
In recent years, his focus has shifted to producing TV specials, including “The Little Mermaid Live!” in 2019 and “Adam Sandler: The Kennedy Center Mark Twain Prize for American Humor” in 2023.
The Beginning of Their Relationship
Glaser and Convy’s relationship started when they worked together on “Nikki & Sara Live.” Glaser recalls that she had quit drinking at the time and was immediately drawn to Convy’s confident and funny personality.
She admitted to having a crush on him from afar, describing their dynamic as reminiscent of the iconic “The Office” couple, Jim and Pam.
Convy’s involvement with Glaser continued when he produced her Comedy Central series, “Not Safe with Nikki Glaser,” which unfortunately was canceled after just one season.
Glaser, who had anticipated the show’s demise, was prepared for the breakup with Convy, acknowledging that most relationships and TV shows don’t last forever.
Navigating Their Relationship
Glaser has been open about the challenges in her relationship with Convy, admitting that she has encouraged him to explore other relationships, as she is a proponent of polyamory.
However, she has stated that she would be comfortable with him having a casual fling, but not a romantic relationship with someone else.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Glaser and Convy both moved back to their hometown of St. Louis, and their relationship became more serious. Glaser even expressed a desire to take their relationship to the next level, but Convy did not propose marriage.
Instead, he asked Glaser to be his emergency contact, which she considered a significant step forward.
Overcoming Obstacles
One of the main issues in their relationship has been Glaser’s tendency to air their problems on her podcast, rather than addressing them directly with Convy.
This has caused him to feel blindsided and has led to several breakups. Glaser acknowledges that she has struggled with being honest and open with Convy, but she has been working on improving their communication.
Despite the ups and downs, Glaser and Convy’s relationship has endured, and they continue to navigate the complexities of their long-term, on-and-off partnership.
Their story is a testament to the power of love and the importance of communication in maintaining a healthy relationship.
