In 2015, the comedian wrote on Twitter that his girlfriend is of mixed (African-American) heritage. “Talking to my girlfriend when she’s angry is like doing stand-up for an audience that’s mostly black. They are listening, but what they really want is for me to stop.”

In 2016, Neal Brennan talked about his girlfriend in an interview with Vice.

“About ten years ago was the best time that was ever done. I was walking down 125th Street in Harlem with my mixed-race girlfriend at the time, and I could feel these guys staring at us.

Like, Who is this motherfucker with a black girl? And as we get closer, one of them says, “Oh, shit. Is that Neal? And I didn’t know any of the guys, but everything was okay. I thought it was so damn funny.”
