While comedian Sarah Silverman has said that she is in no rush to walk down the aisle, the children of her boyfriend, Jimmy Kimmel, have their own ideas on the topic. Jimmy’s teenage son from his first marriage has been urging his dad to “put a ring on it” – and even offered to serve as best man at the wedding.
Jimmy Kimmel’s kids are begging their dad to marry Sarah Silverman – and it looks like they will get their wish!
“Jimmy and Sarah’s break from each other last year made them realize how much they love each other,” said a friend of the couple. “Jimmy’s children keep telling him he’d better marry her. They want to know the relationship is permanent and that they aren’t going to lose her again.”
The most recent marriage push came when Jimmy’s teenage son Kevin (he also has a daughter named Katie) dined with the couple at the Polo Lounge in Beverly Hills on Feb. 21. Jimmy and Sarah kissed repeatedly during the lunch – and his son seemed very happy for them, revealed an eyewitness.
“Jimmy’s kid kept talking about a wedding, and even told his dad that he’d like to be the best man.”

It’s nice that Sarah gets along so well with Jimmy’s kids. I bet she would be a pretty cool stepmom. But from what Sarah has said publicly regarding the subject of marriage, she doesn’t seem too eager to make it official. Maybe that’s changed since the couple has reunited. There were reports that the catalyst for them getting back together after their breakup last year was their friend Howard Stern’s wedding last fall- maybe the nuptials made Sarah change her mind.

Agreed. She doesn’t strike me as the marrying type. But what is a marrying type anyway? Is it me or does he come across as a jackass and she comes across as hilarious?
I think, out of every hollywood couple, I wish them well the most. This seems so ironic, given Sarah’s comedic style, but they appear so classy.
Yay! I hope they do it : )These two really seem so genuine. Marriage or not, I hope they last for a very long time!
Just as long as they keep making Matt Damon and Ben Affleck videos. Just kiddin.
The two of them look like they sit up all night on the Playstation.
Ling: I agree with you here. They’re one of the few wholesome celebrity couples that I can really believe are in love. 😀
I love the fact they can poke fun at each other like all the time even in the media. they seem like they have a strong bond and friendship, and part of what makes a relationship is being best friends with your partner. I wish them the best!
