Elle Duncan's husband, Omar Abdul Ali, has been described by the sportscaster as the MVP of their household. With no social media presence, he is depicted as a superstar spouse and father in his wife's glowing Instagram posts.
Omar Abdul Ali, or 'no IG O' as his wife has lovingly called him, has been in Elle Duncan's life since the 2010s. He does not look to have a career in the entertainment space like her.
While biographical details on the father of two are limited to his birthday in January and no information on his profession, his spouse paints a compelling picture of him as a man and father.
Elle Duncan and Her Husband Omar Abdul Ali's Love Story
The real-life ESPN sports anchor who portrayed a reporter in Kevin Hart and Ice Cube's "Ride Along" met Ali on a "random" Wednesday night in a midtown kitchen. She was the one to hit on him. Omar proposed by a lake in Maine in the mid-2010s.
For Halloween, the family likes to dress up in coordinated costumes.
They said 'I dos' on May 4, 2016, at a Dekalb Co. courthouse, a day she quipped as memorable for "May the 4th be with you," a day the Internet celebrates George Lucas' "Star Wars." Two months later, they had a "more expensive cliffside wedding" in Costa Rica.
Omar Abdul Ali and Elle Duncan Have a Beautiful Family
The couple is parents to Eva, who started preschool in September 2021, and Xander, who "joined the squad" in December 2020. In Xander's birth announcement, the ESPN anchor joked, "Eva is mixed with intrigue and total distrust of her baby brother."
Xander is seen wearing a helmet-like gear in a family dancing TikTok the following November. He was born with a "somewhat rare genetic birth defect" of the skull. Sometime before his 24th birthday, he will likely have surgery on his head.
For Halloween, the family likes to dress up in coordinated costumes. Months before the arrival of Xander, they went out in prehistoric with dinosaur suits. The following year, they had a "Super Halloween" as characters in the "Mario Bros." universe.
Elle Duncan Writes Omar Abdul Ali the Cutest Father's Day Messages
"Immensely grateful that I hit the partner jackpot and, in turn, gave my kids the best dad ever," Duncan wrote on Father's Day 2023. "He always has time- for a tea party, a soccer match, practice, crying session, you name it, he's there." She continued:
"And I think that's the hardest part of parenting sometimes- showing up, In earnest DAILY, trying your best. Omar does it effortlessly- the little and small things and he quite literally allows me to drink in the kind of life I'd always dreamed of because of it."
The previous year, she wrote that theirs is a "household obsessed w/ Daddy" and concluded the tribute with, "Happy Father's Day O… you da real MVP…"
On his January 22, 2021, birthday, she noted that though her hubby is "famously off the grid," she writes online messages to him to remind their friends to wish him a happy day. She called him "no IG O" in a 2019 birthday post.
