It’s a very special day for Sara Bareilles!
The Grammy-winning singer is celebrating her fourth anniversary with longtime boyfriend Joe Tippett.
“4 years next to this one. The man I admire more than anyone. My love and my partner and the one I farted in front of on purpose just to see what would happen. The answer is: we laughed. Happy anniversary @joetipps. No one loves me like you. ❤️,” Sara wrote on Instagram with the below photo.
“Happy birthday to our love… My light ❤️ @sarabareilles,” Joe wrote on his Instagram Stories. He added, “‘Birthday to our love’ = anniversary.”
In response to Sara‘s message, Joe wrote, “This is how she tells me she’s been farting… Pardon the pun but she’s been ‘gaslighting’ me for over a year.”
Sara and Joe met while working on the Broadway musical Waitress. She wrote the music for the show and eventually played the leading role, Jenna. He appeared in the show as Jenna’s abusive husband Earl.
