The Shifting Gears star shared her journey through relationships and how a quote from Whoopi Goldberg influenced her views on marriage.
Navigating the single life
During the conversation, cohost Sara Haines asked Dennings about her 2023 marriage to musician Andrew W.K. In response, Dennings opened up about her pre-marriage dating experiences, describing them as a "nightmare." She credited a famous 2016 quote from Whoopi Goldberg for shaping her initial stance on relationships. "I actually live by a quote from you, Whoopi," Dennings explained. "I don't want somebody in my house." This sentiment resonated with the panel, drawing laughter and nods of agreement.
A change of heart
While Goldberg's quote once guided Dennings' views on relationships, her perspective shifted after meeting Andrew W.K. "Those were my feelings towards marriage in general, until I met my husband," Dennings admitted. "And now I like him in my house. I want him in my house!" Her change of heart highlights the transformative power of finding the right partner.
A lighthearted moment
The conversation took a playful turn when panelist Joy Behar offered Dennings some unconventional bedroom advice. Behar suggested that Dennings listen to audiobooks during intimate moments, a nod to Dennings' impressive reading habit—over 30 books in 2024. Goldberg chimed in, encouraging Dennings to explore more audio content to fit even more learning into her schedule.
