"I’m happy in my personal life," she told hosts Cori Murray, Charli Penn and Yolanda Sangweni. "Finally it has happened to me!"

She went on, "I’m not the type to blast my personal business, but you know, I think that it’s important for people to know that I’m happy. I’m very, very happy. I just am. We’ve been together for two years. And no one would really know that, because I don’t blast my info like that, but I’m very happy."
