Monsters Actress Leslie Grossman Announces She’s Engaged

Leslie Grossman is opening up about her next chapter.

The What I Like About You alum recently announced she’s engaged, sharing the news with her former co-star and friend Jennie Garth.

"You know what's funny is I actually have not spoken about it yet,” Leslie told Jennie on the Oct. 22 episode of the I Choose Me With Jennie Garth podcast, “but you can say.” However, Jennie encouraged her pal to share as to not ruin her moment.

"I am engaged,” Leslie gushed. “Which is so fun.”

As the American Horror Story actress noted, "That's a wild thing that I didn't see coming. Not that I didn't see it coming with this person. I just didn't see any of this next chapter of my life coming."

Though Leslie didn’t share any additional details about her engagement, she did share a bit more after Jennie mentioned she was “happy” for her.

So sweet, thank you. I'm happy for me too,” Leslie added. “He's a wonderful person. And it's so funny that this is the first time I'm talking about it publicly, Jennie."

Leslie was married to Jon Bronson for 20 years before he filed for divorce in 2020. Together, the pair are parents to 17-year-old Goldie Bronson.

Leslie also briefly spoke about her divorce, telling Jennie that it happened around the time she was “48-49ish” and it inspired her to do a reset of her life ahead of her 50th birthday.

“I was as married for almost 21 years and that ended. It was also the first month of the pandemic shutdown,” she explained. “The timing of that was as bad as it could have been. And then pretty shortly after that [my] sister-in-law died. This was my brother’s wife [who] died. She was my sister. You know, you have a choice when all of this stuff happens. I decided I have to be brave. I felt like I had a very hard reset.”

Leslie added, "It is a very lucky and wonderful next chapter. But, I mean, look. My whole life got reorganized around my 50th birthday, and everything got thrown up into the air, and it sort of fell to the ground. And I was very intentional about deciding what I was gonna pick up and what doesn't come with me anymore."
