Rosie O'Donnell: 'I've been engaged to Michelle Rounds for months'

Rosie O'Donnell has revealed that she and girlfriend Michelle Rounds actually got engaged several months ago.

O'Donnell told her Rosie Show viewers that she was reluctant to publicly announce her wedding plans, but had no choice because an audience member overheard her speaking to a guest about the engagement and posted the news online.

"Michelle said to me a few months ago, when we got engaged, she said, 'How come you didn't say it on your show?' And I was like, 'Honey, I don't know how'. I didn't know how to say it," O'Donnell said.

The Rosie Show host also quipped: "You don't want to become one of those celebrities that talks about their relationship ad nauseum and makes it into a fairy-tale thing… And then they go and have an affair with somebody. I don't want to say any names."

Rounds and O'Donnell reportedly first met while waiting in line at a Starbucks several months ago.

O'Donnell was previously married for three years to Kelli Carpenter and is the mother to four children.

The Rosie Show airs weeknights at 7/6c on the Oprah Winfrey Network.
