WANDA SYKES AND ALEX SYKES

These two have been married for 11 years. But, as Wanda recalls, it wasn’t easy peasy at first, and among the many challenges she faced was her previous marriage to record producer Dave Hall. Indeed, Wanda wasn’t shy to talk about how unhappy she was with Hall, and, to a huge degree, even included him in her jokes onstage.

Eight years after her marriage with Hall ended, she found Alex Sykes, and it was reportedly loved at first sight. Describing the moment, Wanda said: “Something really said to me- like audibly- ‘Wow, that’s what you need, Wanda.'” Two years later, the couple tied the knot. And in 2009, they were blessed with twins.
