American actress Mindy Kaling has finally responded to rumors that B.J. Novak is the father of her children.
Mindy Kaling and B.J. Novak have been in the headlines a lot for their post-dating friendships, but Kaling has never really opened up about it, until now…
Scroll down for the full story!
Kaling is best known for her offbeat humor which we were blessed with seeing in projects such as the television show: The Mindy Project…
It got certainly people talking and showcased her popularity in the acting scene.
But her journey didn’t begin just there, as straight after graduation the aspiring actress and her fellow roommate at the time turned a “running joke” into an actual project…
Yes, we’re talking about the play Matt & Ben, which consequently gained a huge amount of popularity, after both Kaling and college friend Brenda Withers, portrayed Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
The comedy skit went on to receive an award at the New York International Fringe Festival and even ran a successful two-year run Off-Broadway.
Just after the success of Matt & Ben, producer Greg Daniels “recruited” Kaling in 2004 to write for an American version of the mockumentary-style TV comedy, The Office…
Kaling went on to portray the character of Kelly Kapoor and remained in the hit show from 2005 all the way up to 2013, where she also served as an executive producer for the series from 2008.
It was here the actress met B. J. Novak for the first time…
And they immediately hit it off, as they say in all romantic love stories.
Back then Kaling told Vulture that “they were never really dating.”
But confessed no one really knew, which has got everyone raising their eyebrows!
Can you really get that wrong?
Clearly, not…
“We were never really dating, we were never really not dating. We didn’t know. No one knew. All you’d know for sure as that you’d always find one of us next to the other, even if we weren’t getting along,” said the actress.
But fans were quick to notice the irony…
That both Kaling and Novak’s characters were actually dating at 1 stage on the show…
Coincidence or maybe it was just meant to be…
According to PEOPLE, Kaling even acknowledged their relationship as “weird as hell.”
And now, she has recently opened up about the topic of relationships and if Novak is really the father of her gorgeous kids…
According to Marie Claire, the actress recently said it “doesn’t bother her” if people think B.J. Novak is the father of her children…
Does that mean he actually is?
Well, it is not exactly that simple, since Kaling refused to address the elephant in the room…
“If that’s what is going to be titillating to people, I’ll take it,” she said.
Shedding light on the matter, the actress revealed she wants privacy when it comes to disclosing information about her kids…
“I want them to be old enough to talk to me about it and [tell me] how they want me to talk about it,” she said.
“I’m the only parent my kids have… I think I err on the side of super cautious so that there are fewer things that they can potentially be mad at me about down the line,” confessed the actress.
