Jason Ritter was born on February 17, 1980, in city of Los Angeles, California.

When questioned about his childhood, Jason said, “I have to tell that it was a weird family. There is a certain motivation that some individuals, like my dad, have to make other people laugh, and it permeates every facet of his life.

He cracked jokes throughout every meal, and during every hang out time afterwards,” he remembered with a warm and fuzzy feeling in his heart. “He liked making his friends laugh.”

In 2017, Jason and the actress Melanie Lynskey announced their engagement and in December of 2018, the couple became parents for the first time to a beautiful little girl.

In an interview conducted in 2019, almost one year after the birth of his daughter, Jason referred to being a father as “wonderful” and “I feel like she and I have a particular connection. We tend to find ourselves in precarious situations together.”

Since the premiere of the television program “Yellowjackets,” in which Lynskey portrays the character Shauna, Lynskey has been the target of several instances of body shaming.

When Jason witnessed the hurtful remarks that were being directed on his wife online, he immediately sprang to her rescue.

He said in a tweet, “If anybody has any additional unwanted remarks about (insert name of person here) else’s physique, they may feel free to write them in indelible ink across their own foreheads and swan dive straight into the sun.”
