Who Is Quinta Brunson’s Husband, Kevin Jay Anik? We Investigate

You may have heard of a little show called Abbott Elementary—the mockumentary-style sitcom that’s already been dubbed the Black version of The Office. But allow us to introduce you to the mastermind behind the show: Quinta Brunson.

Last year, the actress and meme connoisseur made history at the Emmy Awards by becoming the first Black woman to be nominated three times in comedy categories, with nods for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, Outstanding Comedy Series (as executive producer) and Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. After taking home the Emmy for writing, now Brunson is nominated for two SAG Awards, and it seems she is well on her way to superstardom. But what about her romantic life? Is she dating anyone? Is she currently married? And if so, who is Quinta Brunson's husband? Here’s what we know about her relationship status.

3. When Did Brunson and Anik Get Married?

On July 30, 2020, Brunson announced her engagement with a fresh-faced selfie, complete with a close-up of her sparkly ring. In the caption, she simply wrote, “More good news,” referring to her previous announcement of A Black Lady Sketch Show scoring an Emmy nomination.

Since then, the actress hasn’t shared any details about her wedding or posted any photos. But according to ShowBiz Corner, Brunson and Anik tied the knot in an intimate ceremony with close friends and family in September 2021.

While the Abbott Elementary creative keeps most details of her relationship hush hush, she did give a special shoutout to her hubby while accepting the Emmy Award for Writing for a Comedy Series back in September 2022.

“In case I am not back up here again, I have to thank my mom, my dad, my brothers and sisters...and I need to thank my wonderful husband because he's the most supportive man I've ever known and my incredible cast and crew for helping me to make this show and make the pilot,” she said at the end of her speech. Talk about a loving shoutout.
