Private Practice star Kate Walsh is reportedly dating Neil Andrea after ending a short failed marriage to Alex Young (details here). The two were recently spotted together at several events and someone even overhead Kate introducing Neil as her boyfriend.

When asked about it, Kate said, “I’m not going to talk about that! I know you have to ask, but it’s super top-secret! It’s in the vault!” The 41 year-old actress does seem to be happier and they make a super hot cute couple. The third season of ‘Private Practice‘ premieres tonight (Thursday, October 1) on ABC (watch video below).

Private Practice star Kate Walsh is on the cover of the March 2009 issue of Redbook magazine.  In the issue she opens up about her brief 15-month marriage to Alex Young.  She also talks about turning to her friends for support in wake of her sudden divorce.

On her divorce: ”I don’t think anyone gets married thinking that they will get divorced. We certainly did not. Alex and I still care for each other, and I wish him nothing but the best. The silver lining to this, however, is that I have a wonderful family and a great group of friends who really showed their support and encouragement, and for that I am truly grateful.”

On her insecurity: “I second-guess myself all the time. I make a decision and then wonder if I made the wrong choice. Sometimes I come off as confident, but really I am a quivering little wharf rat underneath who is radically insecure and deeply in need of love and understand.”

On turning to her friends for support: “I have gone through ups and down, and it’s human nature for someone to judge and say, ‘Here’s what you need to do.’ But the most truly useful thing to do is to shut up and listen and tell the person that you’re there for them unequivocally.”

Kate seems like a great gal. Hopefully, she can chalk Alex up to a lapse of good judgement and be one bad apple closer to her McDreamy.

More Kate Walsh in Redbook

TV executive Alex M. Young has filed for divorce from ‘Private Practice’ actress Kate Walsh.  Walsh rose to fame as Addison on ‘Grey’s Anatomy.’  The two married just last year on September 1st.

The actress’ husband, Alex M. Young, filed for divorce in Los Angeles on Tuesday. His petition cites “irreconcilable differences” but offers no further details.

The pair married September 2007, and the documents say they separated Nov. 22.

I don’t think many expected ‘Private Practice’ to last longer than her marriage. But don’t get too excited, ‘Practice’ is likely the next in line for an amicible divorce from Walsh.  Maybe then she can return to ‘Grey’s’ and pump life back into it.

Former Grey’s Anatomy and current Private Practice star Kate Walsh turned 40-years-old on Saturday October the 13th.  Life at 40 seems to be going great for Walsh who got married over Labor Day weekend and also received her own TV show from ABC.

Take note Lindsay, Paris and Kiefer of Kate drinking water while being chauffeured around Hollywood.

Private Practice and former Grey’s Anatomy star Kate Walsh is getting married over this holiday weekend to movie ex Alex Young.

“I’m super excited to be getting married to this guy,” she told us. Although she did admit to a small “bridezilla moment” while trying on her wardrobe.

“Who knew someone could get so hysterical about a bra?” she says. “I was like, ‘It’s not the right bra, it’s not the right bra!’ And the sad part was there was a mirror there and I had to see the whole thing. My face sort of turned to this like sort of stone and then snakes — and it was bad. I was like I can’t believe I had a meltdown over a bra.”

Hopefully this sexy dame will now be happy without McDreamy or McSteamy throttling her.

Private Practice actress Kate Walsh, who use to star on Grey’s Anatomy, about has all of the planning complete for her Labor Day weekend wedding to TV executive Alex Young.

Young, 36, and Walsh, who stars in the new Grey’s spinoff, Private Practice, will wed at California’s Ojai Valley Inn & Spa. In fact, with the help of wedding planner Jo Gartin and her company Love Luck and Angels, the celebration will be a three-day-event.

The festivities will kick off with a rehearsal dinner on Friday, include a pre-wedding meal on Saturday and a sunset ceremony, then wrap up with a post-wedding brunch on Sunday, according to a source.

During the ceremony, the bride will wear a custom made Monique Lhuillier wedding dress, the source says. The Saturday reception will be held outdoors at the inn’s Casa Elar, a Spanish-style estate, where the pool will be covered to accommodate the approximately 110 guests.

I still think a better name for her new show would have been Private Anatomy.
