Tommy Dorfman Engaged: '13 Reasons Why' Actress Shocks Everyone With Announcement
Tommy Dorfman is now engaged with her "mystery" lover which created different reactions from the people around the actress.
Dorfman reveals that she is now engaged with her fiance in an interview with Rachel Bilson of the "Broad Ideas" podcast.
The "13 Reasons Why" actress did not reveal much information to the public other than saying that her fiance is a cis woman describing as "just a gay girl."
Dorfman shocks everyone with the announcement maybe beacause her last relationship wasn't with a woman.
February this year, the news about Dorfman and ex-husband Peter Zurkuhlen divorce circulated on social media after 5 years of marriage.
The couple decided to redefine their relationship as "friends" Dorfman, noting that "It's wild to be 29 and going through puberty again. Some days I feel like I'm 14. As a result of that shift, the types of romantic partnerships I seek out are different."
ET News stated that after the breakup of the former known couple, Dorfman started to feel attracted to women which she hadn't felt for so long.
"I knew I was interested in women in a way that I hadn't really been aware of since high school," admitting that she "had this unresolved, unexplored thing."
The actress also shared that her fiance is the first ever woman she's been with for a "very long time," noting that their relationship is "very affirming."
Meanwhile, the actress shared her plan to transition even before the start of the famous series "13 Reasons Why."
Dorfman explained to Bilson that if she didn't land the role in the series she would've started transitioning highlighting that her role delayed some of her growth and maturation in her mid-20s.
"For me, I feel like I kind of got stuck in time for a minute," explaining her late transition.
She also shared that she struggled at first in transitioning a she felt like she had safe friendships with women in her life and she thought that if Dorfman revealed to her female friends that she is now attracted to women they might feel unsafe.
Dorman added that she didn't want to ruin the "safe zone" feelings of her female friends in her presence.
The actress had privately transitioned a year before her 2021 in which she labeled the announcement as a "reintroduction to me as a woman."
With all these, everyone is happy that she finally found her "the one." Next milestone? Wedding.
