    Leah Delaney Originally Hails From London, England<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Despite their fame, or perhaps because of it, Leah Delaney and her husband are a couple that likes to shield their private lives from the public. It is difficult to get a full picture of what her personal background looks like, but we do have some pertinent details. Sources have it that Leah Delaney originally hails from London, England, and was born on the 2nd of April 1978, which makes her a year younger than her famous husband. She had a good childhood and completed her secondary school education. After that, she proceeded to college, where she obtained a degree in sociology.<\/p>\n

    Leah Delaney is, therefore, a college graduate, and this is one of the traits that she shares with her husband, Rob Delaney. Originally from Boston, Massachusetts, Rob Delaney attended the New York Tisch School of the Arts and studied performance. He planned to end up in musicals someday and never even gave a thought to comedy. Watching the likes of Amy Poehler and Tina Fey later made him have a rethink, and he refocused his attention on comedy.<\/p>\n

    She is a Teacher and a Stylist<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Before getting married to Rob Delaney, Leah Delaney earned her living as a teacher and stylist. She also spent a good deal of time volunteering with various charities. Leah Delaney has since scaled down her level of professional and charitable pursuits since she got married and started a family with her husband (welcoming four kids in the space of eight years). However, they hope that she will return to these activities now that their baby-making days are over and she can have more time to herself. While Leah Delaney is bidding the time until she can get back to teaching, her husband, Rob Delaney, is going full throttle with his career.<\/p>\n

    Upon graduation from school in 1999, Delaney spent the next several years as a struggling comic, doing standup, writing, and occasional acting gigs. He would later get his breakthrough a decade later through Twitter. Rob was a master at hurling 140-characters or less nuggets<\/a> online, and he soon amassed hundreds of thousands of followers on the platform. He garnered a reputation as one of the funniest persons on Twitter, and around 2014, an Irish comic and actress, Sharon Hogan, reached out to him for a collaboration. That collaboration eventually yielded the hit British sitcom known as Catastrophe<\/em>.<\/p>\n

    Catastrophe<\/em> features Rob and Sharon as a couple who accidentally get pregnant after a brief fling and decide to make a go of their relationship. The series debuted on TV screens in 2015 and was a resounding success. It received much viewership and was renewed for three more seasons. It also fetched Rob and Sharon several accolades, including best comedy writers at the 2016 BAFTA TV Craft Awards. Catastrophe<\/em> came to an end in 2019, but Rob Delaney is not slowing down. He has appeared in blockbuster movies such as Deadpool 2<\/em> and Hobbs & Shaw<\/em>. He has also penned a bestselling memoir and has his comedy special, Rob Delaney: Live at the Bowery Ballroom<\/em>, on Comedy Central and Netflix.<\/p>\n
