One fan submitted a question asking whether she was dating again after her husband’s sudden demise, she replied, “OK, here we go. I have gotten this question hundreds, hundreds of times since the beginning.”

She noted that she had not started dating again.

“No, I have not. I have not. I have not,” she said at the time. “I couldn’t even think about that. It was not even in my psyche to even cross that bridge and the thought of even anything serious anytime soon, I can’t even process. It’s just so complicated, so many emotions attached to that.”

While she was not ready to date at the time, she did say she was open to the idea of letting someone in at some point in the future. “I will say, it does get a little bit lonely, so the thought of a coffee or a hike or something like that, I’d be open to,” she shared. “But yeah, there’s a lot of ins, a lot of outs, a lot of what have you,” the widow said.

Now it seems like the time is finally here as Kelly Rizzo has finally stepped out with her new love, Breckin Meyer. She posed with her new boyfriend for photos on Sunday as they attended the Jam for Janie GRAMMY Awards Viewing Party at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. The couple had their arms around one another as they walked the red carpet.

44-year-old Rizzo was wearing a body-hugging leopard-print dress which she paired with high-knee black leather boots. While Meyer stuck to a more casual look with gray khakis and a gray denim jacket over a gray t-shirt. It has been confirmed by media outlets that the two of them are dating.
