Christina Pazsitzky confirmed on Wednesday's episode of "Your Mom's House" that she and co-host Tom Segura are divorcing, marking the first time she's publicly addressed the split herself since news of the separation first broke last month.
How She Broke the News
Pazsitzky, 50, was joined on the podcast by comedian Duncan Trussell, who opened the episode by jokingly asking if there was anything new in her life. After a bit of small talk, she got straight to it: "Yes, Tom and I are divorcing and it is extremely sad," she told listeners, fighting back tears. "I didn't know I was going to cry this soon. It is very sad." She explained the timing behind her delayed public statement, noting that "Your Mom's House" episodes are recorded in advance — which is why listeners hadn't heard about the split on the show sooner, even though it had already been reported elsewhere.
What She Said About the Marriage
Pazsitzky described years of effort to keep the relationship together before ultimately deciding to separate. "We have tried to work it out for several, several years for the sake of our children and our family," she said. "And we gave it all we could, but we just couldn't work things out." Despite the sadness, she framed the marriage itself as a success: "Look, we had 20 amazing years together, and that's a really good run." She and Segura, 47, married in November 2008 after meeting years earlier performing at open mic nights for stand-up comics — meaning the couple's relationship spanned nearly two decades even though their legal marriage lasted 18 years.
An Amicable Split, She Insists
Pazsitzky was emphatic that the divorce isn't contentious. "This is not an ugly divorce," she said. "Like, we're cool, dude." She asked fans not to take sides, stressing that she and Segura "do not hate each other" and remain focused on co-parenting their two sons, Ellis, born in 2016, and Julian, born in 2018. She also confirmed Segura will continue appearing on "Your Mom's House" "when he can" between his film and television work, adding, "We're still going to have a good time."
Looking Back on What They Built Together
Pazsitzky grew emotional reflecting on the couple's journey — from two broke comics living together in L.A.'s Silver Lake neighborhood to building comedy careers, launching "Your Mom's House" in 2010, and eventually founding their own production company, YMH Studios. She also referenced some of the harder moments the marriage weathered, including her 2024 breast cancer diagnosis, describing the relationship overall as one that "changed" naturally after the two met in their twenties and spent two decades building a life together.
How the News First Broke
TMZ first reported the couple's separation on July 13, citing sources who described the split as completely amicable and said it had occurred within the preceding couple of months. Pazsitzky addressed the news briefly on Instagram days later, calling it a "really difficult time" for the family, before Wednesday's podcast marked her first extended, on-air comments about the divorce itself.
Their Careers Beyond the Podcast
Beyond "Your Mom's House," both comedians have built substantial individual careers. Pazsitzky has released two Netflix specials — "Christina P: Mother Inferior" (2017) and "Christina P: Mom Genes" (2022) — and founded Christina P. Cosmetics. Segura's Netflix dark comedy series "Bad Thoughts" recently earned an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Short Form Comedy, Drama or Variety Series, and he continues co-hosting "2 Bears, 1 Cave" with fellow comedian Bert Kreischer.
What's Next
With Pazsitzky now having addressed the divorce directly and both comedians confirming plans to continue co-parenting and maintaining "Your Mom's House," the show is expected to carry on with Segura appearing when his schedule allows. Neither has indicated any immediate change to their broader podcast network, YMH Studios, or its other shows.
