For the past decade, Impractical Jokers’ has left its audience breathless with its hilarious antics. Joe left the show at the end of the 9th season. With Gatto from the show’s latest series, fans have wondered what Joe has been up to since leaving the show.
Why Did Joe Gatto Leave Impractical Jokers?
On January 1, 2022, the comedian announced his exit from the show on Instagram, citing personal reasons. He revealed that he was leaving to focus on his family and co-parenting following his split from his wife.
Although neither have given a reason for the separation, the Impractical Jokers star and his estranged wife, Bessy, sparked reconciliation rumors months later when they were seen together with their children.
Joe, however, assured his fans that his friends would continue to make them laugh without him. From the emotional response to his post, it was clear that the joker’s absence is tough to take due to his daring personality.
Will Joe Gatto Return To Impractical Jokers?
Joe was the most energetic of the group, so it is understandable that Impractical Jokers fans are still holding out hope that he will return. Since leaving the series, fans have had mixed reactions to the show, with some suggesting it will fail without him. Like the fans, his co-stars were shocked over his departure, but as good friends would do, the trio supported his decision, highlighting that Joe won’t be replaced.
However, it does not look like the Impractical Jokers alum will return to the show. In his post, he made it clear that he would be focused on being the best father and co-parent to his two children, Milana and Remington.
What Is Joe Gatto Doing Now?
Although Joe has left the Impractical Jokers, the comedian still wears many hats. The TV star got to work immediately with his comedy tour “A Night Of Comedy With Joe Gatto.” Tickets are on sale for the tour that starts in Chicago in July.
Aside from his comedy tour, the 47-year-old co-hosts a podcast, Two Cool Moms with Steve Byrne, where they hilariously discuss strangers’ parenting challenges the way moms would. The podcast boasts an average of 10,000 listeners per episode across several platforms.
