What We Know About Leslie Jones And Kate McKinnon's Relationship

The click-bait people weren't done with just one ad featuring Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon in the lead image. Another ad featured another photo of Jones and McKinnon with the headline: "17 LGBTQ Celebs that Overcame Many Challenges and Eventually Became Couples," per Snopes. People who clicked through thinking the "SNL" women were featured found themselves clicking through 67 slides with no mention of Jones or McKinnon.

To be very clear, Jones and McKinnon are not married to each other. They are best friends. Like Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, they became close during their years together on "Saturday Night Live."

When they shot 2016's "Ghostbusters" together, that bond solidified, according to Refinery29. McKinnon said, "Leslie and I have worked together for two years at SNL. We were very close by the time we got there to film and got so much closer, pathologically closer over the course of the summer in fact ... We're sisters for life."
