She and he together makes the world seem less dark. She’s a stunning woman.

[@Tiyath]

THose two need a podcast where they just have mimosas and talk about their day

[@brittany9627]

I agree completely

[@martinzitter4551]

We see "him." We see "her." We see "him and her" together.

[@jbrubin8274]

There’s nothing better than watching his reaction when something in particular tickles her. And that’s the moment you realize, he’s not trying to making us laugh. He’s trying to make her giggle. If we happen to find it funny as well, then great, everyone wins. Happy Mother’s Day weekend to all.

[@lissarodrigues8950]

I agree 👍 💯.

[@ACMH98]

The way Evie said "cause I married I neeerd" and Stephen getting slightly embarrassed 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 I'm so jealous of them wow ❤️

5:53 "If it is a show dress let's buy because you look lovely" It is so refreshing to see a man, truly love his wife, a women in his age group, and the mother of his children. It is more rare than you know. Such a great example of a solid REAL relationship. The best!!

[@uzomaokafor8384]

I thought along the same lines. They have been together for so long but he still desires her. They are blessed to both be loved and be lovers.

[@pinkrose5796]

Love the way he looked at her with such a loving look when he said that. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️!

[@nicorobin5978]

Evie needs to be brought into more than just greeting card segments. The people demand more Evie!

[@joycedavis9996]

georgie, DO NOT spoil an Evie & Steve vibe.

[@MJDENTON]

I hear there's going to be on opening on the late late show soon . . . Swap Corden for Evie!!

[@Angel-eq9tq]

First time watching Evie, she seems lovely.

[@Bitfire31337]

@@MJDENTON I'd rather see more of her together with Steven, than on her own. Even though she is great by herself, the real magic lies in Evie and Steven being together. An absolutely adorable couple.

[@Bitfire31337]

@@Angel-eq9tq Watch some of the lockdown episodes. She's usually there as the whole audience. They have more interaction and her laughter from off-screen is great 😄.

[@remylewis8721]

I love how ever since lockdown Evie gets an entrance greeting from the audience you'd imagine someone like Brad Pitt might get and she absolutely deserves it. She is an absolute delight.

[@ColoringKaria]

Yes! I notice that too and I love it! They are so cute together!

[@Captzoomer7]

Yes.

[@PowerGlove79]

Stephen, give this woman whatever she wants for mother's day. She's a treasure

[@ElectraAlan]

And still got it goin' on.

[@sparkythancztwise]

He's been saying what a treasure she is for decades. He has known since he first laid eyes on her and has felt lucky ever since (particularly grateful since the moment he found out she welcomed him as a date, then eventually as her mate). It's heartwarming how he has always spoken of her. I'm grateful she has been by his side supporting his happiness and success, so we could enjoy what a treasure his talent and heart are to all of us.

[@kenek629]

After this break, Evie was the ray of sunshine we needed! Glad they're both healthy ❤️

[@laalaa99stl]

The worst part of an Evie Colbert appearance is knowing how long it will be until we see her next. Father's Day is over a month away!

[@injunsun]

@George Washington Put down the crack pipe, sugar.

[@lindapindabelinda3570]

Definitely. It sure would be nice if she had her own segment. And Ron DeSantis is a complete idiot. He’s ruining Florida in regard to health, education, and economics.

[@bevstarrunner9472]

What? No first drafts of Cinco de Mayo cards?

[@LauraEilers]

The second worst part, is that I truly loved the random audience members (not as much as I love Evie)

[@The_Real_Mier]

@George Washington Oops, it seems like your barf bag/trough accidentally fell into these comments….! You should best clean it up, I heard disinfectant works wonders….. in your 4zz!

[@nknh]

It's so sweet that Stephen wanted to buy the dress Evie had on for her because she likes it and it looks good on her.

[@batgurrl]

Evie and Stephen’s rapport never fails to be both charming and hilarious. I wish we could see more Evie - her laugh is so infectious.

[@fleetwoodm5292]

OMG! Evie is a knockout in that dress! Absolutely gorgeous!

Stephen calling Evie " Darling " and melting just seeing her is relationship goals!! Love to them both ❤💖

Seriously, a podcast or anything with both Evy and Stephen would be such a great idea! I click so fast when Mrs Evy appears. Happy Mothers Day Everyone 💜

[@jannaval]

4th! Yes!!

[@Meganec3810]

Omg Yessss!!!!!

[@listianocrowe]

I concur! 👍

[@bradosborne8464]

I think we need an episode where Evie is the host of the show and Stephen comes out for the first drafts segment.

[@bethlydia01]

Yes!

[@simgem]

Responding to "could I..." with "yes you may" is so maternal, I can see her holding back an "I don't know, could you?" 😂 Love Evie and the Mother's Day spirit!

[@marydonohoe8200]

Jon’s mom has to be one of the very best. I’d love to know her. Happy Mother’s Day, Mrs Batiste! You raised a noble man. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@rikkiechambers4959]

Evie!!!!! Oh nothing makes my heart smile like the two of them together 💕😊I totally agree with the Consensus that we need more holidays so she can come more !!

[@joycedavis9996]

there could be an Evie Day once a month…think about it, Steve!

[@Sharonmxg]

Evie is the best and I am smitten by their obviously close relationship. They are decent, compassionate, smart, hilarious and clearly like each other. Good role models in my opinion.

[@gabrielvega9194]

I love how Evie go from lovely wife to recurring guest star in the show

[@anushapremkumar7356]

Evie’s segments are the only ones I never miss 🥺

[@deirdredraginoff3760]

I have a big crush on Stephen Colbert. Every time he's super sweet to Evie, it makes me swoon. Everyone deserves a partner this sweet.

[@flowertrue]

if I ever meet Evee, I would probably fangirl almost as much as if I met Stephen. Oh who am I kidding, forget the almost.

[@user-ed5sw9fj4t]

I would too. She's a gem!

[@HighHeelKnight]

Evie's dress was simple yet sensational. Honestly, it was one of the best she has ever worn on the program. I love the stilettos she selected as well. 👠👗😍👏👏👏👏

[@renierjacobs176]

It kills me to know that I will never experience such glorious love. They are magnificent.

[@sparkythancztwise]

@ProRoe Mahatma wasn't exactly a saint, he had some *serious* and harmful flaws. But he did some good too. P.S. For the record, some of us compassionate folks who are into studying the works of some top notch psych professionals can't help but cringe a little when we hear or see (witness) another person go the route you took and offer unsolicited advice of this ilk: "With negative thoughts like that, true love will indeed, be hard to find you. Be the example you want to see in the world." You must know that saying shit like that is more like a swift kick in the kidneys than it is like an empowering pep talk. If you're "being the example" you want to see in the world, I'd rather live on another world than you. Just cuz you thought you could, doesn't mean you just changed the world for the better. Nor the OP's life outlook, for the better. Maybe it's never occurred to you that a lot of people can carry on with an optimistic and hopeful outlook for many years (despite hardships and painful treatment from others), until accumulated life experiences and observations of the array of human behaviors eventually wear it down to a cloak of cynicism laced with tatters of faith remaining that the solidarity in humanity isn't outweighed by the demonstrative callousness. Your comment was in essence callous, yet presented as saccharine support.

[@michelfug]

'... the McDonalds in the lobby of the hospital...' Oh 'Murica, you never cease to surprise me 🙈

[@shauniebnaturalista6672]

Evie McGee. She's a keeper.❤️

[@sparkythancztwise]

As is Stephen. So glad they crossed paths at the right time and recognized their good fortune together. So happy for them. I hope when they agree that retirement time has arrived, I hope they have plenty of time to enjoy things and activities they love together, and also with friends and family. This job is demanding. Glad the whole crew gets periodic breaks. Even though the show is missed so much when on breaks.

they are a PERFECT couple, beautifully paired and supportive of each other. RARE

[@michaelvilain8457]

I love that Stephen blushed when Evie said "I'm married to a Nerd!"

[@sparkythancztwise]

I think it is adorable how humble he is (they both seem to be, but with healthy self worth and pluck too). It's hilarious that he still feels like his "nerd" passions are anything to be embarrassed about. He is an *amazing* performer, interviewer, dancer, singer and all around stage presence. And no doubt, an outstanding dad and everyday human. HIs nerdy side is just one of many loveable parts of the fabulous whole person he is. So glad the woman he wanted for a wife (so badly) clearly loves and appreciates him too.

[@kelseylogas1580]

They are just an amazing couple. To another 29 years of happiness. They are just a joy together.

[@radhikanandasw.6342]

Yay! Evie! Love you two together. Such a ray of love and sunshine! 💕🌸🌹🌞

[@TyroneNorwood]

[@spikeslobodian]

I used to think Colbert was impressive but he just found a perfectly lovely woman to help him become the man he is.

[@MothGirl007]

He truly is.

[@michellefu4002]

Now you have me thinking of a Mr. Rogers reboot with JB.... Brilliant, and so needed for kids today. I beg of the universe to make this happen!

[@sparkythancztwise]

@@michellefu4002 wow, what a thought. Mister Fred Rogers was also very invested in music too. His primary interests and concerns were very well complimented by the inclusion of music (his own music) in many ways in the show (what isn't enhanced by weaving music into the mix?). I wonder if someone like Jon, someone who is primarily a musician, could be a successful host to a show that could serve the common weal similarly today? It'd have to be a collaboration of a few with all the right education, skills and character combined. [Hey, if a team can create Ozark as happily and successfully as they did, maybe another team could create something long term that is almost the opposite. Ozark was amazing. Yet not the content, themes, or messages to foster empowered empathetic socialization in very young children, ha.] I have long wished we could have something broadcast which could be done with the same intention, purposes, integrity, and success that Mister Rogers Neighborhood carried. There was a show not long ago which featured an actor I love as host, and it seemed to be trying to do something similar, adjusted to our times, but it was tragically and truly awful. There can never be anything quite the same as MRN, for a few reasons, but it sure would be great if something close enough could be created and sustained.

[@tanyawalters8775]

Those cards are awesome. My favorite was the first about walking after having the kid and fearing her lol. Yes we do that
