Inside Timothy Simons And Annie Simons Married Life

Timothy Simons, best known for playing Jonah Ryan on HBO’s Veep, is nothing like his character in real life. He lives a fulfilling, resentment-free existence. That existence is made possible by his wife, Annie Simons, and his two children. He began constructing that life in 2008 and hasn’t looked back since.

Timothy Simons And Annie Simons

Simons and his wife, Annie Simons, have been married since 2008. They must have met before in Chicago. After graduating from the University of Maine, he relocated to Chicago in search of a method to further his acting career. He worked in theatrical shows and met Annie somewhere in between. They married on June 7, 2008, and began their adventure together, both physically and metaphorically.

“I had some success with commercials and TV things, and I enjoyed the city and my friends there, but I understood that all the major roles were in L.A.,” he said of his time in Chicago to the Bangor Daily News in 2012. “I was also weary of the cold.”

“So my wife [Annie] and I were married in June 2008, and then we sailed out for L.A.,” he said. They placed their belongings into a moving truck and went to Los Angeles. They will have been married for 14 years as of June 7, 2022. Simons and his wife aren’t very open about their personal lives, but he does post on Instagram on significant events such as their anniversaries and their children’s birthdays. Annie works as a public school teacher in Los Angeles, where the family currently resides.

Timothy Simons Children

Simons’ personal and professional life both took off at the same time. In 2010, he received his first movie role as a bartender in Days Together. He had his first children the following year. His wife gave birth to their twins, Marty and Hopper Simons, on December 5, 2011. Marty and Hopper spent their first two and a half months in the NICU due to health issues that were not life-threatening. They grew up watching his work and being around his sets when Veep came knocking in 2012. However, as of 2019, the children have not watched the show.

The Candy star struggled to find his feet as a father in the early years. In an interview with Stephen Colbert in 2017, he said that he always considered himself a father figure to older children.

“I feel like I’m hitting my stride as a dad,” he told Colbert. “I always saw myself as a parent of children aged five to nine.”

He quipped that he had no concept of what to do with a newborn and had no idea what he was doing for the first year and a half of his children’s lives. However, since his children had recently turned five, he was finding motherhood a little easier. Earlier in the conversation, he described himself as a “fun nightmare” as a youngster. His mother reprimanded him often, but it was all in good fun.

He referred to his children as “nightmarish” and thought that they could have inherited that trait from him, but he also raved over his twins as “beautiful, great, fantastic” children. They entered first grade the next year in August 2018, and by the time they were seven, they were hooked to Story Pirates, a children’s podcast based on enactments of tales submitted by children. They are now 10-year-olds, developing swiftly and maybe expanding out of Simons’ parental comfort zone. Perhaps Simons will adjust as well?
