Abbi Jacobson Reveals Why She and Wife Pretend to Be Sisters

Broad City star Abbi Jacobson is opening up about the way she safely travels with her wife, Jodi Balfour, through notoriously anti-LGBTQ states as a gay couple.

“As my wife and I drive, if we drive across the country, there are states where we are sisters. In case,” Jacobson, 42, told Page Six during a Tangles screening earlier this week.

“It’s really wild, how we’ve come so far in a lot of areas,” she added, while acknowledging that “many people” are not able to hide their sexuality in order to protect their physical safety and wellbeing.
