Will Arnett, 55, gets cozy with ’90s model girlfriend Carolyn Murphy, 51… after split from Alessandra Brawn

I spotted Will Arnett looking really happy with his new girlfriend, Carolyn Murphy, in New York City on Friday. They seemed really cozy together, which was lovely to see!

They were arm in arm at the Jenni Kayne Spring Summer 2026 Collection Presentation in Soho. 

Following his breakup with long-time partner Alessandra Brawn, reports from Page Six indicate she is now dating Sebastian Bear-McClard, the ex-husband of Emily Ratajkowski.

Sources say the 55-year-old comedian and his girlfriend, Brawn, broke up quietly around the end of last year.

Arnett and Brawn share a five-year-old son named Denny, and according to a source, they are dedicated to co-parenting him effectively despite no longer being together.

A source told The Sun that Arnett and Brawn broke up earlier this year.  

The Daily Mail contacted Arnett, Murphy, and Brawn’s representatives on Instagram for a response, but they haven’t received one yet.

It’s unknown exactly when they started dating, but Jason Bateman and Megyn Kelly appeared to be a couple when they attended Sean Hayes’ play, Good Night Oscar, in London last month.

In a photo shared by Hayes, Arnett had his arm around Murphy, and she was resting her hand on his chest while they posed with a group.

‘Another recent surprise visit from one of the greats. Love you, Willie,’ Hayes captioned the post.

Fans reacted with surprise to Murphy’s appearance, and some speculated about a possible romance between Carolyn and Will. One fan even asked, ‘Are Carolyn and Will dating?’ accompanied by fire emojis.

‘And with the beautiful Carolyn Murphy!’ another wrote of Murphy.

The model is a passionate environmentalist and was married to Jake Schroeder from 1999 until 2002. They have a daughter together, Dylan Blue, who was born in 2000.

Arnett started a relationship with fashion professional Brawn in 2019, and they had a son, Denny, in 2020.

Despite generally keeping their romance private, the couple was photographed together at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

Will Arnett was once married to actress and comedian Amy Poehler. They were a popular and well-loved couple after getting married in 2003.

Though they split in 2012 and officially divorced in 2016, they’ve remained friendly while co-parenting their sons, Archie, 16, and Abel, 15.

Poehler and Arnett have kept the specifics of their split private, but they’ve been open about how hard it was emotionally.

Arnett called the breakup ‘brutal,’ telling The Guardian he was so upset he had to pull over while driving and cry for an hour.

As someone who often shares insights into navigating life’s ups and downs, I really connected with something Amy Poehler wrote in her 2014 memoir, *Yes, Please*. She explained she simply didn’t want to discuss her divorce publicly, and I completely understand why. Some things are just too painful and private to share, and that’s perfectly okay.

The Parks and Recreation actress shared that she values her privacy, stating she doesn’t want people knowing about her personal life.

Shortly after his divorce was completed, 48-year-old Will began a relationship with 30-year-old interior designer Elizabeth Law. The two were seen sharing a passionate kiss in Los Angeles as late as March 2019.
