Funnyman Conan O'Brien met his wife Liza Powel in 2000 when he was still killing it on "Late Night." Powel was working as a copywriter at Foote, Cone & Belding and appeared in a skit about the ad agency. 

Since then, the couple got married in 2002 and had two children. Powel has told People Magazine that O'Brien is a great father and actually quite the "softie."

It was love at first sight for funny man Conan O'Brien.

The host of TBS's "Conan" told Piers Morgan Monday night that he "instantly" fell for his wife when he saw her while taping an episode of "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" in 2000.

"Somewhere, in the vault at NBC, there's footage of me literally falling for my wife on camera," O'Brien told Morgan.

He said that his wife, Liza Powel, caught his eye because she is "incredibly beautiful," but added that, more importantly, she is "very intelligent, and funny, and a really good person."

He also admitted to being a romantic guy, though it's buried under "layers and layers" of "repression and ham."

"It's a Slim Jim of romance," he said of his romantic side.

O'Brien and Powel were married in 2002 and have two children together, Beckett and Neve.
