Jimmy Fallon was on Howard Stern’s radio show yesterday and he revealed that his mother was nun. Wait, what? Then Jimmy Fallon explained that his parents met in high school, and after graduation she went off to the convent to become a nun. So how did she go from being married to Jesus to being married to his dad? He did not explain, but he did say that she only did it for a week.
Faith runs strong in his family because he also told the radio host that he actually thought of becoming a priest for a while.
Now that we know this, it explains why he has as air of innocence about him.
