Kristina Evangeline, ex-wife of Keenan Thompson, is now dating his ex-wife Saturday Night Live Costar Chris Reed. While this may have the ingredients of a messy working relationship between Thompson and Reed, TMZ Reports that there are no harsh feelings between the trio. The sources said TMZ That Chris Reed and Christina Evangeline became an official couple over the past year, which means there was no overlap between Evangeline’s time with Thompson. In addition to this, it was also reported that Thompson and Evangeline have been living separate lives and have been working on a divorce since 2019.
Season 48 of SNL will be without Chris Reed, who announced on September 19 that he would not be returning. Redd has starred on NBC’s Late Night Show for five seasons, and is among a long list of departing comedians including Alex Moffat, Melissa Villaseñor, Aristotle Athari, Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant, Kyle Mooney and Pete Davidson.
To be a part of SNL It was the experience of a lifetime. Five years ago, I got into 30 Rock knowing this was a great opportunity to grow,” Redd said in a statement. Now, with friends that have become family and memories I will cherish forever, I am grateful to Lorne Michaels and to all. SNL organisation. From the bottom of my heart, I cannot thank you all enough.”
Michaels confirmed four new members earlier this summer, adding Marcelo Hernandez, Molly Kearney, Michael Longfellow and Devon Walker. The four will join James Austin Johnson and Sarah Sherman, both on their way to their sophomore outings, as featured players.
Earlier this month, Michaels said next season will largely be a “transition year” due to the high turnover.
“I think there was only a link,” He told the scrum media at the Emmys. “And we did these shows at home, so there was an intimate relationship and a bond, a connection between the audience and this group. And I think we couldn’t imagine the world without this whole team. So we just kept moving forward.
“This is going to be a transition year,” Michaels added. “The change you get is always hard. But it’s also really exciting.”
Redd will remain busy with other Hollywood projects. For example, he has a special show for HBO Max titled Chris Reed: Why do I like this? scheduled for later in the year, SNL Creator Lorne Michaels has chosen comedian for the Audible project, Redd will also star in Universal’s Internet Mon.
