Selma Blair is in love!
The “Cruel Intentions” star revealed in a recent interview that she is dating an unnamed mystery man who is not famous.

Blair revealed she met her new partner after spying him from “across a table.” However, she was reluctant to share any more personal details.
“[I think] relationships are best kept out of press if possible,” the “Legally Blonde” star explained. “Nobody wants it to be exposed to scrutiny. But yes, it’s possible to find love at 52. And beyond!”
Blair previously married Ahmet Zappa in 2004 but the pair filed for divorce two years later. She shares her only child, 14-year-old Arthur, with ex-boyfriend Jason Bleick.

When pressed on whether she’d ever want to walk down the aisle again, Blair – who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2018 – shut down the idea.
“Fitting anything in as a mother wanting to build a career and figure out when you’re going to get your blood treatments in — a boyfriend falls by the wayside really easily,” she explained. “That’s why I would never want to get married. It’s a major setup to fail.”

“I learned that I could do things that I didn’t even think I wanted to do anymore,” she exclusively told Page Six at the time. “I learned that with passion and [hope] that you could feel as beautiful as the people that you’re watching. That it can be inspiring.”
“What [being in love] does for your spirit — it’s nothing to take lightly. It colors everything. I still believe if I’m just true to myself, that person will come into my life one day,” she told Glamour Magazine .
“I think I deserve it and think I’m in a great place to show up as the best version of me. It’s the first time I have hope. And I could have never said that in my life before.”
