Olivia Munn Constantly Worried About John Mulaney's Safety

Olivia Munn tries to keep John Mulaney safe from "brain-eating amoebas" , "crazy cars", and monkey pox from "not washing new clothes".

The 42-year-old comedian admitted his wife is "constantly" trying to keep him "alive" by regularly sending him text messages featuring dire warnings about potentially-risky everyday activities, and despite the bizarre nature of some of her concerns, the 'Deliver Us From Evil' actress insisted they were all "deadly serious".

Before presenting his 44-year-old spouse with InStyle's Woman of Impact award at the ImageMakers event, People magazine reports John said: "Olivia is constantly trying to keep me out of danger and keep me alive through a series of texts throughout our entire relationship."

He then proceeded to read out a number of her messages.

As he headed to the Tom Ford store in Chicago, John received a message which read: "Baby, be so careful today, you can get monkey pox trying on clothes at a store and/or not washing your new clothes."

And at 7am in March 2023, the former 'Saturday Night Live' star was sent an article from People magazine that had the headline: "Florida man dies of brain eating amoeba after rinsing sinuses with tap water."

John said: "She texted underneath it, 'John, John, we are never moving to Tampa.'

"Now, we had never discussed moving to Tampa, but it was officially off the table."

Another time, John was taking their son Malcolm, two, out for a walk for the "200th time".

He recalled: "She wrote me out of nowhere, no context. 'Please be so careful today. So many crazy things can come out of nowhere. I texted back, 'Like what?' Olivia responded, 'Crazy cars'. You don't hear enough about crazy cars. I can't believe it's not an issue in this election."

And after the 'Newsroom' actress warned her spouse Dick Van Dyke had been left with a "bloody nose, bloody mouth" in a Los Angeles car accident, she texted: "You have to be so careful driving in the rain. Oil collects on LA streets."

John - who also has six-week-old Mei with his wife - concluded: "When I was on tour in Australia, she sent me this, 'Baby, so many things in Australia can kill you. Just go to your show and go back to your hotel, and never go outside.' And this is the last one, 'You have a family to think about now.'"

On Tuesday (29.10.24), Olivia confirmed she had meant every word of her dire warnings.

She wrote on her Instagram Story: "To be clear, I was dead serious about each of those texts. Brain eating amoebas are a very real threat. As well is not washing new clothes after buying. As well as water beads for kids.

"Don't sleep on any of my warnings."
