Olivia in March revealed that she was diagnosed with breast cancer last year and had four surgeries in 10 months including a double mastectomy.
She thanked her doctors in the Instagram post revealing her cancer battle and also singled out John for praise.
‘I’m so thankful to my friends and family for loving me through this. I’m so thankful to John for the nights he spent researching what every operation and medication meant and what side effects and recovery I could expect.
‘For being there before I went into each surgery and being there when I woke up, always placing framed photos of our little boy Malcolm so it would be the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes,’ Olivia posted. John in the comments thanked Olivia for fighting so hard to be with him and Malcolm.
John and Olivia started dating in 2021 and they have two-year-old son Malcolm Hiệp Mulaney together.
The Netflix special John Mulaney Presents: Everybody’s In LA will stream live during the Netflix Is A Joke Fest starting on Friday with additional episodes streaming each night from May 6 to May 10.

David Letterman, Jerry Seinfeld, Jon Stewart, Sarah Silverman and Cedric The Entertainer will be on John’s show that will explore everything about Los Angeles.
Dr. Lucy Jones, a seismologist who is well known by Los Angeles residents, also will be part of the special.
John said he asked Van Halen frontman David Lee Roth, 69, to be part of the special, but he declined.
He originally wanted Diamond Dave to be the band leader and then sought him out as a guest to talk about his life in Altadena.
‘I didn’t know how to appeal to him. It’s David Lee Roth, I should just call him up and be like, let’s party, and he might show up,’ John quipped.
