Rosie O’Donnell fans gush over star's new 'official relationship' status update

Rosie O'Donnell fans were thrilled on Wednesday when the star confirmed she is in a relationship.

On the day which marked the first day of Pride Month Rosie and partner Aimee shared the happy news on Instagram.

Aimee, who regularly posts makeup tutorials to her 85k followers on TikTok took to social media to share a pic of the pair's beaming smiles as she wrapped her arms around her belle.

She captioned the image: "Happy PRIDE!" and the snap was quickly reposted by the comedian on her own page.

A flurry of fans quickly jumped on the post to share their delight and send messages of positivity to the pair.

One user simply said: "Smiles say it all," followed by a love heart emoji, while another wrote: "BEAUTIFUL FOREVER."

A third commented: "Ohhh you two are that.... make my heart smile couple."

Both Rosie O'Donnell and Aimee uploaded the snap to social media (Instagram)

And a fourth replied: "Sweet, you 2 make an adorable pair," and followed up their words with an array of love heart emojis and rainbow flags.

The update comes a month after Rosie, 60, hinted of a new relationship when she uploaded an image of her hand resting on an anonymous woman's leg.

The snap also showed the Sleepless In Seattle star holding hands with the female as she wrote on the post: "How's ur weekend? #spokane."

While Aimee's surname is not publicly known, she revealed on a 2021 edition of the Lesbian Speaking podcast that she had been raised as a strict mormon.

She married at the age of 21 "out of duty" and had a daughter. She also has a son and confessed to the podcast that it took her a long time to reconcile her sexuality because of her teachings as a child.

She also said after she came out as being gay she has had a lot of other ex-Mormons contact her about their own experience.

The post was uploaded on the first day of Pride Month (Instagram)

Rosie was previously engaged to Elizabeth Rooney but the pair called it off in 2019 following two years together.

She had previously been married to Kelli Carpenter, with the pair sharing four children together.

She also shares an adopted daughter with Michelle Rounds. The pair were married between 2012 and 2015.
