Over the years, McGregor has become known for his candidness and the honest confessions he shares in interviews. His openness and authenticity have endeared him to audiences, making his personal life as much a part of his public persona as his professional work.
In November 2024, the Aussie comedian made the exciting announcement that he and his wife had welcomed a daughter, leaving fans curious to learn more about his love life, his recent marriage, and what’s next for the family.
Who is Luke McGregor’s wife?
Luke McGregor surprised fans when he announced his engagement during an appearance on The Project. The 40-year-old comedian revealed that his now-wife, Dr Amy Thunig, proposed to him in a creative and heartwarming way over Christmas. McGregor had planned to propose after the holidays, but his wife beat him to it.
“They did a 30-day countdown to Christmas, and the final gift was a Lego wedding chapel,” McGregor shared. “When I opened up the chapel, they proposed.” The unexpected proposal was a joyful moment for McGregor, who humorously added that he gave his wife a necklace for Christmas in return.
Did Luke McGregor get married?
Yes, Luke McGregor married his partner, Amy Thunig, in a secret Valentine’s Day wedding in February 2023. The Tassie-born comedian announced the news on Valentine’s night with a casual Instagram post that simply read, “Hey, look at us.” The low-key announcement was met with an outpouring of love and congratulations from fans and friends.
Does Luke McGregor have children?
In early November Amy took to Instagram to reveal she was in her “maternity leave era” sharing with fans a cute video showcasing her bump.
Fans were surprised when a mere day later the couple took to Instagram to share the arrival of their daughter.
“Amy dropped 4.3 kgs in ONE DAY and you can too if you follow these simple steps…” Luke humourlessly wrote alongside a snap, of their daughter. Luke is also the stepfather to two children, aged 9 and 13, with Amy.
“Welcome Earthside our baby girl, born weighing a generous 4.3 kg or 9.4 pounds on the old scale,” he added. “Mum and baby H doing well.”
Friends, family and colleagues flooded the post with congratulatory messages, with Rove McManus commenting: “Joyous news you two (and a half). Congratulations and remember: sleep is overrated 💙”
“Brilliant news! Congrats you two!” added Hughesy, whilst Anne Edmonds wrote, “Congratulations guys!! Beautiful. ❤️❤️❤️.”
