Who is Derek Waters?
Born Derek Matthew Waters under the sign of Leo on the 30th of July 1979, in Lutherville, Maryland USA, Derek is a 38-year-old Caucasian actor, comedian and writer, perhaps best known to the world for his significant screen presence as the co-creator and host of the Comedy Central series entitled “Drunk History.” He has had a number of other successes throughout his often lucrative acting career since 2002.
Early Life and Education
Derek was raised in his hometown, by his non-biological father, and his mother named Judy Waters of an unknown profession; the names and professions of both his biological and non-biological father are unknown. There is also no information about his mother’s marriage prior to his birth, so it is unknown why he wasn’t raised by his biological father; Derek is apparently an only child. As per his education, he attended Towson High School in Towson, Maryland, during which he became involved in Little League baseball, and matriculated in 1997; there is no record of any further education.
Career
Love Life
Even though it is known that Derek is a married man, mostly due to one of his old marriage pictures that he posted online (in which his wife’s face isn’t visible), not much else is known about their union. Her name is Jody, and even though he oftentimes mentions his wife in his tweets, both jokingly and seriously, he has never tweeted a single picture of her, nor revealed anything else about her. It is unknown whether they have any children nor whether they’re planning on having any. Due to Derek’s low profile, he was occasionally rumored to be gay, due to the fact that he once tweeted ‘I love this gay detective bar, D & A.’ However, none of these allegations stood for too long – well, he is actually married to a woman.
Additional Information
Derek is a four-time Emmy Award nominee, although he has never won one. That said, he has a Saturday Night Live script that has been autographed by every single member of his favorite band – “Pearl Jam.” Lastly, it looks like he also had an interest in boxing at some point, since he is known to have taken boxing lessons for some time.
