The Best Guy

In October 2021, Handler shared a bit about her relationship, captioning a series of couple photos on Instagram, "Do you know how hot it is to have a man be turned on by my honesty, strength, and confidence?

In Front of Her the Whole Time

Handler added, "For everyone who is still looking for their person, do not adjust who you are or make yourself smaller to find them. Be patient and never settle for anything less than you deserve. Your person is coming and sometimes—they've been standing in front of you the whole time."
