And by “by myself,” you mean with B.J., right? Right?!?!” Since welcoming her first child in 2017 and her second in 2020, Kaling has steered clear of sharing any details about the identity of their dad. However, her close relationship with actor B.J Novak sparks rumors that he could be the dad. Nevertheless, Novak has maintained his title as a dedicated godfather.
