Chicago, IL -
Comedian and television talk show host Rosie O'Donnell announced plans to marry girlfriend Michelle Rounds by the holidays.
O'Donnell told members of her studio audience during the Friday taping of the "Rosie Show" at Harpo Studios on Chicago's West Side.
People confirmed the report with her rep.
The 49-year-old comedian was married in 2007 to Kelli Carpenter. The couple raised four children together before spitting in 2011.
O'Donnell and Rounds, 40, meet earlier this year at Starbucks.
When ChicagoPride.com caught up to the duo before the premiere of the "Rosie Show" in October, Rounds said that she was in the process of moving to Chicago.
O'Donnell, a New York native, purchased a $2.5 million home in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood earlier this year.
The "Rosie Show" airs at 6 p.m. (Central) on OWN.
