From 1991 until 1998, Sykes was married to record producer Dave Hall. In November 2008, she came out as a lesbian at a same-sex marriage rally in Las Vegas in support of Proposition 8.

Sykes had married Alex Niedbalski, a French lady she met in 2006, a month before. The couple also became parents in April 2009, when Niedbalski gave birth to a set of fraternal twins, Olivia and Lucas.

Sykes didn’t come out to her conservative mother Marion and father Harry until she was 40, and both struggled to accept her homosexuality at first.

They refused to attend her wedding with Alex, which caused a temporary schism; they have since reconciled with Sykes.

Who Is The Father Of Wanda Sykes Twins?

Sykes is married to Alex Niedbalski in a same-sex marriage, and as such the twins have no father, but they do have two mothers.

Alex gave birth to both Olivia and Lucas, and she and Wanda have raised them together.
