Amy Poehler and her new boyfriend Joel Lovell looked smitten as they exited a Los Angeles grocery store on a rare public outing recently.

The former deputy editor of the New York Times and the Saturday Night alum, 53, reportedly started dating over the summer.

The outing to Ralph’s is one of the few times the new couple have been spotted together publicly. 

The Parks and Recreation star wore a denim shirt with brown pants and a black jacket.

Lovell looked fit and trim as he towered over Amy in a navy blue, long-sleeved henley t-shirt and black jeans. 

The Mean Girls actress was formerly married to Will Arnett from 2003 to 2016. The former couple share sons Archie, 16, and Abel, 14.

Amy might have crossed paths with Joel through their mutual connection to Philly-based podcast broadcasting company Audacy, which happens to own his company Pineapple Street Studios. 

Audacy is the same company behind Poehler’s 2023 scripted comedy podcast, Say More with Dr? Sheila.

Lovell – who’s worked on Magnificent Jerk, Missing Richard Simmons, and Serial – is father to three daughters: Addie Lovell, 23; Tess Lovell, 21; and Julia Lovell, 17.

After her marriage to Arnett, Amy dated comedian Nick Kroll for three years. 

Earlier this year, Amy told a very relatable story about a fun night out in Sydney, Australia.

Amy travelled to Australia in May and shared a big night out in Sydney, during which she partied hard with Aussie country music star Jade Hurley.

In an interview with Pedestrian, the Parks and Recreation star said the night started innocently enough.

‘I went and saw [Hurley] perform some of his covers and hits and he was an incredible musician,’ she said.

‘We all got so drunk that we left our wallets at the bar — that’s how great it was! And we’re hoping to do something like that tonight…who hasn’t been there?’ she added.

Sitting down on The Jess Rowe Big Talk Show podcast, Amy explained, ‘Australia’s so good at joy. I have to say,’ she shared.

‘They do joy very well because they’re interested in these big moments and they’re outdoor people and so they have these giant endorphins,’ she added.

The comedian, who voices the character Joy in Inside Out 2, divulged her perception of the emotion.

‘Joy… you can only feel it if you’re actually where you’re supposed to be in the real moment. When we think ahead or when we think about what we regret we get a little bounced out of that state,’ she explained to Jessica Rowe.
