Anna Marie Tendler is not looking backwards and moving forward.
During an interview with Harper's Bazaar, the 35-year-old discussed the highs and lows of her past year, a week after it was confirmed that she had reached a final divorce settlement from her ex-husband John Mulaney.
"I had a lot of bad days and medium days. I wouldn't say I had any good days until the summer," the makeup artist shared.
Back in May 2021, Mulaney and Tendler split after six years of marriage. After the news of their separation broke, the Connecticut native wished her former spouse luck with his journey with recovery from his drug and alcohol addiction.

Back in 2019, Mulaney spoke with Entertainment Weekly about his decision to prioritize his marriage and career over having children.
"They're great, but I love what I do," Mulaney said at the time. "And I love my wife and spending so much time with her and we have a really fortunate life. I get to travel, do stand-up, and our relationship is so wonderful. It’s just something I wouldn't want to change."
