“It’s been honestly, truly, really the best experience over these last three months. I’ve been in a relationship like I feel like I’ve never had before,” she continued.

She added, “I wanted to tell you guys because I always just want to live my life honestly and have you all along with me.”

Windey then shared a photo of herself and Hoffman kissing while embracing in a chair.

Hoffman, who already publicly identified as queer, re-shared the photo to her own Instagram story and jokingly wrote on it, “Guys some news ... I am gay.”

While speaking to the Jewish Journal in 2020, Hoffman, whose mother raised her in a strict Hasidic Jewish home, revealed that she felt alienated at her Jewish school as a young person because she was gay.

Though she walked away from Judaism, she said at the time that she identifies as “very Jewish and very gay” and incorporates her religious upbringing in her standup routines.

Hoffman is a writer and comedian who is developing a comedy called “Rivkah,” inspired by her own life, for Showtime, according to a 2021 report from Deadline.

She wrote for the PBS children’s show “Odd Squad,” for which she won a Daytime Emmy Award in 2019.
