She looks gorgeous!

I don’t know about these comments. There is something about them that’s off, but I can’t quite put my finger on it. As you all know Kate Walsh, current star of Private Practice, got engaged to her boyfriend, Alex Young, only 3 months after they started dating.
On their relationship: “I know – I’m literally living the dream. But you know when you know. I was not expecting it, so it’s kind of amazing.”
On his looks: Walsh says she loves “everything” about her fiancé, a production co-president at 20th Century Fox, but she admits that she also really likes his looks. “He’s pretty handsome,” she said, adding, “He’s ridiculously handsome!”
On the wedding planning: “He’s really great. He’s there, but he’s not in the way! He wants to contribute.” So, she’s taken charge. “You start getting into this and you don’t want to be a cliché, but then suddenly you’re like, ‘I’m doing all this stuff!’ “
Maybe I just don’t take such whirlwind relationships (especially in Hollywood) seriously. What do you think about their relationship?
Kate Walsh and her new engagement ring!

Holy crap - that was fast! I thought I got engaged fast (engaged after 3 months).

Grey’s Anatomy star, Kate Walsh exclsuively tells Usmagazine.com that she and her 36-year-old movie producer boyfriend, Alex Young are engaged.
Walsh, 39, tells Us: It happened a few days ago. And that’s all I can say. I’m on cloud nine.”
The couple went public with their wirlwind romance at a Barack Obama fundraiser in Los Angeles on April 28.
ABC announced late Friday that they had picked up the Grey’s Anatomy spin-off series, tentatively titled Private Practice for next season.
After the success of the May 3 test episode that was part of a two hour Grey’s extravaganza, the pick-up was a no-brainer for the network. In addition to Kate Walsh’s Addison Montgomery-Shepherd, the new show stars Taye Diggs (Day Break), Tim Daly (The Nine, Wings), Hector Elizondo (Pretty Woman, The Princess Diaries), Paul Adelstein (Prison Break), Chris Lowell (Veronica Mars), Merrin Dungey (Alias) and Amy Brenneman (Judging Amy).
While this certainly simplifies the race for a chief at Seattle Grace (not to mention a number of people’s love lives), it seems most Grey’s fans would rather see Addison continue her ongoing anatomy lesson with Dr. Alex Karev.
