Rosie O’Donnell is no longer with that single mom to six kids that she dated in the wake of her breakup from her longterm girlfriend, Kelly Carpenter. I remember reading that they had broken up, but Rosie claimed they were back together afterwards. She said in April that “We didn’t really break up. She just has six kids… And I have four. It’s insanity.”
It looks like Rosie has stopped the insanity, because she now has a hot new girlfriend who is presumably childless. Rosie brought her new girlfriend, a corporate headhunter whom she claims to have met at Starbucks, to an event over the weekend. Then she put an announcement about it on People:
Rosie O’Donnell has a new girlfriend – and they met at Starbucks!
O’Donnell, who returns to TV Oct. 10 with a new talk program, The Rosie Show, on Oprah Winfrey’s OWN network, introduced her new girlfriend Michelle Rounds Monday night at O’Donnell’s annual Rosie Theater Kids Gala in New York City.
“They met at a Starbucks a few months ago,” a source tells PEOPLE. “They are adorable together and are very, very happy.”
An upbeat O’Donnell, 49, joked onstage at the gala that she had just bought a new red bra “with the underpants that match and everything.”
Rounds is a corporate head hunter for an IT company in N.Y.C. O’Donnell has four children with former partner Kelli Carpenter, whom she married in 2004. They separated three years later.

I bet these two met over the Internet, not at Starbucks, but good for Rosie. She’s got a new talkshow with Oprah, she’s no longer a rage-aholic, and she’s got herself a new girlfriend. Rosie’s show premieres on OWN on October 10th, and this news seems timed just right to coincide with that. Rosie may be rich and famous, but I bet she’s a royal pain in the ass to deal with on a daily basis. This chick has her work cut out for her.

Good for her.
Rosie being happy is a good thing. Rosie angry is not
I like Rosie even though I don’t think we’d agree on anything at all. She’s just so infectious when she’s happy. I hope she can be happy again.
She looks like Charlie Sheen’s most recent ex.
I love Rosie!! I can’t wait for her new show!!!
I don’t know how Rosie pulled this attractive lady.
She’s the female version of a man who keeps leaving his wife and family to trade up for a younger model.
Looser.
Personally I dont like Rosie and think she is a selfish raging lunatic – I dont understand how anyone puts up with her. Feel sorry for any kids involved.
barf
@sassenach it’s her winning personality, I’m sure.
sassenach, the same way ugly, fat man get attractive women: MONEY.
i personally really enjoy watching Rosie on television. she was always baited on the View and i hope that by giving her her own show again it will allow her to do her own thing without coming off as overly defensive. she gets a bad rap for being loud and opinionated, despite so many other TV personalities having the same traits, but her weight and sexual orientation are obvious targets for the haters. she’s a millionaire so clearly she has fans! Rosie has done wonderful things for children’s charities, and i’ll be cheering her on when she starts her new show. she’s gone from being Oprah’s only true threat as a talk show host to being Oprah’s employee, so i’m interested in seeing how that relationship will affect her show (if at all). Rosie FTW
No, she’s not “hot”. Anyone looks hot when standing next to Cowhead.
Serial relationship-changing is NOT GOOD FOR KIDS! I don’t care whose relationship it is, Kate Hudson or Rosie O’Donnell, it’s never good for the kids involved.
rosie seems like such an unlikable person – how does anyone put up with her bellowing?
Yeah im sure she really loves Rosie (the fame) and will be with her for years (the money).
Uck, I couldn’t imagine anyone sharing the same bed as Rosie O’Donnell. It reminds me of when Howard Stern said the only talent Tom Arnold had was being able to get it up for Roseanne.
I dont like this woman..that is all.
There is nothing more beautiful than the taste of a woman’s body right after she comes out of the shower–It is heavenly at that time to hug her, to kiss her mouth, to kiss each nick and cranny of that lovely body–I can very easily understand the allure of A female body to another female–Go for it ladies
Sleeping with Rosie is a high price to pay to get your head in the media. I’ll take obscurity thanks.
I’m betting that Donald is laughing.
