She further expressed that he played “hard to get” for quite some time which was difficult for her.

“I remember I was holding my dog and I shut the door and when the door shut I went, ‘Pippy that’s called sexual tension.’ He played hard to get for like nine months, maybe longer, which just killed me.”

The actress further mentioned that the duo had a romantic relationship for about two years while it was thought that they were together for just a year.

“I mean, if we count everything, like two years. I had been saying two years for so long and he was like, ‘It’s been like, six months!’”

As she fell for him first, she counted that time as well.

“I think two years. I mean, I was in love with him for like, two years.”

When the host asked him if her love for him faded, she replied, “No, I still love him very much.”

She mentioned that she is friends with all her ex-boyfriends stating,

“I have a theory. I think it’s because I’m blunt. I don’t think that you can have any sort of bad relationship with anybody if you’re just blunt. Everybody always knows how you feel at all times and there’s no lying, it’s just honesty. Everybody’s a good guy to each other. All my boyfriends have been wonderful. Nick [Hoult] was a great boyfriend.”

The actress has now settled with her husband Cooke Maroney, who met through their mutual friend. The duo exchanged vows in 2019 and welcomed their boy named Cy last year.
