The couple has been together for four decades Actress Lily Tomlin has married her partner of 42 years, writer Jane Wagner, in a New Year’s Eve wedding. Chicago Tribune columnist Liz Smith first broke the news, writing that "My longtime friends, Lily Tomlin and her love, the writer Jane Wagner, got married on the eve of 2014 … My wish is that their happiness will be as great as their combined talents." Tomlin had hinted that nuptials might be on the horizon after the historic Supreme Court ruling in June 2013 striking down the Defense of Marriage Act. "You didn't think that would happen," Tomlin told E! News in September. "It's pretty remarkable. You don't really need to get married, but marriage is awfully nice."
