Chelsea referenced her relationship with Jo Koy and explained that it taught her to keep some of her life private. If you forgot, the couple dated for a year before splitting in the summer of 2022.
“I’ve been down that road before with having a public relationship, my last relationship,” she said, via Us Weekly. “It’s more out of respect for their privacy. I don’t want him to have to be exposed to my world.”
Chelsea did say that she’s known her new man for a while, even if the romantic side of their relationship is on the newer side.
“We didn’t really become lovers until about six or seven months ago,” she said. “I invited him to Mallorca on a trip with a group of friends.”
She praised her partner, saying, “He’s sweet and so caring and completely sees me and understands that I am not available a lot. My life is pretty crazy, and he appreciates that. He’s around when I want him to be. He’s great.”
Could she imagine getting married to him? Chelsea said that marriage is actually something that she is “not interested” in.
“I go through periods where I have multiple lovers. That’s kind of what I wanted to do when I was a little girl. I wanted to grow up and be a woman that did have multiple lovers,” she said. “I’m not interested in long-term commitments — to work, to people, to anything. I am a free spirit, and I want to remain and soar like an eagle. … I want to soar like an eagle with my heart and legs wide open.”
