Maria and Dominique look so happy at the 2020 Vanity Fair Oscars party.

While speaking with Entertainment Tonight Maria, 52, gushed about her relationship with Dominique. “We’re pretty happy, considering that we just got engaged,” she said. “So this is sort of our fun time out in Hollywood for the first time. It was very surprising and meant to be, but about time. I’ve finally grown up enough to get married.”

Maria may be the most familiar face of the pair, but Dominique is no stranger to the limelight. The 55-year-old is the only female chef in America to have three Michelin stars for her California restaurant, Atelier Crenn. So is it too late to make a reservation there for Valentine’s Day dinner or...?

Anyways, back to this cute couple. “We’re really excited about this new chapter,” Maria told E News. “It’s cool to be out together in Hollywood and doing this thing I’ve been doing for 25 years but with somebody I really enjoy doing it with.”

Though they haven’t gotten too far into planning yet, Maria did reveal they have a season in mind. (And it’s this year, eek!!)

“We’re slow in the going,” Maria said. “But it will be in the fall sometime. I can’t wait. I’d do it tomorrow if I could.”
