| Quotes: |
- It’s like my entire life came from one job. I met my husband on the show. I have a beautiful house. Every day I feel incredibly blessed.
- (following Jesse Spencer’s wedding proposal): I was in so much shock when he proposed that it took me two days before I cried! My brain couldn’t catch up to everything. Jesse laughed at me for a couple of days because I wandered around not really able to grasp everything. But then I realized that all these things that I was hoping for in my life – all these things you don’t dare to hope for too much just in case that’s not your path – all of a sudden it was at the forefront and possible. I realized, “I will have a home and a family with him!” That’s when it finally hit me and I cried – but it was a happy cry!
- (on co-star Jesse Spencer’s wedding proposal): It was so romantic! We were at the Eiffel Tower and the ring was not in a ring box but in a little old poll case with a butterfly on top. Jesse gave it to me and said it was my Christmas present.
- I always had a thing with Thanksgivings. I’ve started dating people and broken up with them around Thanksgiving several times. What is it about Thanksgiving? I guess that at least someone’s there to console you.
