Billy Crystal and his wife Janice Crystal have been married for more than 50 years.
The couple met in New York during the summer of 1966 and married on June 4, 1970, long before Billy had his big
break in When Harry Met Sally.
“[Janice is] everything,” the actor told Gayle King during a December 2023 interview. “Her honesty, strength, and
love. [She is] the weight in my shoes in case I fall asleep.”
Janice and Billy have two daughters, Jennifer and Lindsay, and they are devoted grandparents to four grandchildren.
Billy Crystal says his nearly 50-year marriage ‘only gets better and better’.
From meeting as teenagers to celebrating almost 50 years of marriage, here’s everything you need to know about
Billy Crystal’s wife, Janice.
Billy and Janice met as youngsters living in Long Beach, New York.
Billy graduated from Long Beach High School in 1965, where he was named “Most Popular,” and went on to play baseball at Marshall University in West Virginia.
Billy worked at a summer camp before his sophomore year and met Janice there.
“This girl walks by, and I say, ‘I’m going to marry her.'” And I did, four years later,” he explained, recalling his first encounter with Janice on the WTF with Marc Maron show.
