Jennifer Love Hewitt is in love — again. And she doesn’t care who knows it. Not one for staying quiet about her relationships, the 31-year-actress is gushing about actor/director Alex Beh, whom she met at a dinner party and has been dating for several months.
“We laugh a lot,” she told Us Weekly about the 27-year-old filmmaker. “He’s hilarious.” We’re happy that she’s happy, but is it too soon to be sharing?
Her last relationship with comedian and Ghost Whisperer costar Jamie Kennedy was “the happiest I’ve ever been” according to an interview she gave to People magazine last year. She even dedicated her 2010 self-help dating book to him “for being a great partner and my real truth. I love you.”
In the book, The Day I Shot Cupid – Hello, My Name is Jennifer Love Hewitt and I’m a Love-aholic, she expresses her frustration with being constantly labeled a serial dater. “It’s like a bad KICK ME sign on my back. What does it mean? That I date men and kill them? Yes, I have dated a lot, not on purpose, by the way. I would have loved to have met my soul mate in fourth grade and never looked back.”
She thought she found her soulmate in 2005 when she met Scottish actor Ross McCall. The couple dated for two years before getting engaged, but split a little more than a year later. Of that love connection she told People, “it’s the first time I’ve ever been in a relationship where you don’t have to try.”
But we hope this new relationship goes the distance. Ironically enough, Hewitt was first spotted showing off her new man at Dodge’s Rock and Roll Marathon in Los Angeles this past weekend where they ran in the race together. Whatever happens it will make for great material in her next book. That is if she doesn’t tell us about it first.
