The Short Answer: Two Married, One Divorced, One Partnered
Keith Habersberger and Zach Kornfeld are married; Ned Fulmer is divorced; Eugene Lee Yang is in a committed relationship. The Try Guys — the YouTube comedy group that started at BuzzFeed — built part of their brand on their real-life relationships: the “Try Wives” (and partners) appeared in videos, podcasts, and tours, making the Guys’ love lives part of the content.
That transparency backfired spectacularly with Ned Fulmer, whose wholesome “wife guy” persona collapsed when his affair with an employee was exposed — leading to his firing, his divorce, and a reckoning for the whole brand. The group today is a different entity: smaller, chastened, and still standing.
Keith Habersberger: Married to Becky
Keith Habersberger is married to Becky Habersberger (née Miller), a makeup artist and content creator. The couple met in college and married in Chicago — a wedding the Try Guys themselves filmed for a vlog, with the other Guys as groomsmen.
Becky — known online as BecksMecks — became a beloved part of the extended universe: co-hosting the “You Can Sit With Us” podcast with the other Try Wives, appearing in videos, and building her own following for makeup and comedy content. The couple welcomed a son, Henry, making Keith the group’s resident dad — a role he plays with visible delight.
Keith’s brand within the group is the lovable food guy (“Eat the Menu,” his hot sauce line), and his stable, goofy marriage is part of the charm: the tall Midwestern kid who married his college sweetheart and never looked back.
Keith’s food empire — the “Eat the Menu” series, his hot sauce line, his cookbook — made him the group’s most commercially successful solo brand: the lovable giant who’ll eat anything. Becky’s been part of that story: taste-tester, co-host, and the person who keeps the whole operation human.
Their son Henry’s arrival turned Keith into the group’s resident dad-content machine: the tall man made soft by a small boy. Fans watched him navigate new fatherhood in real time — the exhaustion, the wonder, the hot sauce-stained onesies — and loved him more for it.
Zach Kornfeld: Married to Maggie
Zach Kornfeld is married to Margaret Angela “Maggie” Bustamante, a nurse. Maggie — like Becky — became part of the Try Wives extended content family, co-hosting the podcast and appearing in videos with a dry wit that fans adored.
Zach, the group’s earnest filmmaker and resident anxious sweetheart, has spoken about how Maggie grounds him — including through his openness about his autoimmune condition and mental health. Their dynamic — his vulnerability, her steadiness — made them a fan-favorite couple within the fandom.
Of the four Guys, Zach’s marriage has been the quietest: less content, less drama, just a solid partnership humming along beneath the YouTube chaos.
Ned Fulmer: The Scandal and Divorce
Ned Fulmer’s story is the group’s cautionary tale. He’d built his entire brand on being the ultimate “wife guy” — constantly praising his wife Ariel Fulmer, an interior designer, and their two young sons. The Try Wives content leaned on the Fulmers as the aspirational couple.
Then came the exposure: Ned’s affair with an employee — documented by fans, confirmed by the group — shattered the persona overnight. The Try Guys fired him, releasing a somber video about betrayal and workplace ethics. Ariel filed for divorce, requesting privacy for their children’s sake.
Ned apologized publicly and largely disappeared from public life. The scandal remains the defining crisis of the Try Guys’ history — proof that building a brand on your marriage is a high-wire act with no net.
Eugene Lee Yang: Partnered With Matthew McLean
Eugene Lee Yang — the group’s breakout creative force — came out as gay in a powerful video that was as much art film as announcement. He’s in a long-term relationship with Matthew McLean, a business consultant; the two have been together for well over a decade and live together.
Matthew appeared in Try Guys content and the Try Wives/partners podcast orbit, and the couple’s easy, funny dynamic made them fan favorites. Eugene’s coming-out video — cinematic, emotional, deeply personal — remains one of YouTube’s landmark LGBTQ+ moments.
Eugene has since departed the group as a performer (remaining a co-owner of the company) to pursue filmmaking and creative projects — a graduation, not a rupture.
Eugene’s coming-out video — a cinematic, deeply personal short film — remains one of YouTube’s landmark moments: millions of views, mainstream coverage, and a flood of messages from viewers it helped. That he made it as art rather than announcement was pure Eugene — the group’s most ambitious creative, treating even his own identity as a canvas.
His departure from the group as a performer — while remaining a co-owner — was framed as graduation: the filmmaker outgrowing the format. Matthew, his partner of over a decade, has been the steady presence through every reinvention — the relationship that predates the fame and will outlast it.
The Group Today
Today’s Try Guys is Keith and Zach at the core — married men, one a dad — plus an expanded cast of collaborators under their independent company. The “Try Wives” era, with its cozy couple content, belongs to a more innocent chapter.
What’s remarkable is the survival: most YouTube groups don’t survive a scandal like Ned’s, let alone a founding member’s departure. That Keith and Zach’s marriages — real, stable, un-performative at their core — endured while the brand wobbled says something about which was the act and which was real.
The ‘Try Wives’ Era: When Partners Were Content
For years, the Try Guys’ partners were part of the show: the “Try Wives” appeared in videos, co-hosted the “You Can Sit With Us” podcast, and joined tours — a cozy extended universe that fans adored. Becky’s makeup content, Maggie’s dry wit, Ariel’s design eye, Matt’s easy charm: the partners weren’t props, they were personalities.
The strategy — monetizing the marriages — worked brilliantly until it didn’t. Ned’s scandal didn’t just end a marriage; it broke the fourth wall of the whole enterprise, revealing the risk of building content on real relationships: when the relationship is a lie, the content becomes evidence.
What survived is telling: Keith and Zach’s marriages — the real ones, the boring-in-the-best-way ones — endured. The lesson the group learned the hard way: the audience can tell the difference between a partnership and a performance, and only one of them lasts.
