00:00You have a very big love in your life right now.

00:04Talk about your relationship if you feel comfortable.

00:07Minka Kelly was visibly taken aback when Jenna Bush Hager asked her about her love life on Today.

00:13It all started when JBH tried to seamlessly segue from Minka's Christmas rom-com,

00:18Champagne Problems, on Netflix, I'm watching that,

00:21to her real-life relationship with Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds.

00:25The actress appeared to look off-camera, possibly at her publicist, as if to say,

00:30Help!

00:31I think you posted this B-Day message saying he healed wounds he didn't and flipped.

00:38Yeah.

00:38That's beautiful.

00:39It is beautiful. I feel very lucky. He's a really good guy.

00:42That somewhat curt answer drew nervous laughs from Jenna and her celebrity co-host, Olivia Munn.

00:48Sounds like you don't want to talk about it. That's fine.

00:51I was like, I guess we don't straight then go to the video.

00:54We don't talk about Bruno or Dan Reynolds, I guess.

00:58The Instagram post that they were talking about was this one from July 14th on Dan's 38th birthday.

01:05She gushed,

01:05This beautiful man has healed wounds in me he did not inflict, simply by being himself,

01:11by embodying true masculinity, the kind that is vulnerable, honest, and loving.

01:16I thought I knew kindness, love, patience, generosity, care.

01:20I thought I knew how to be gentle, and then I met him.

01:23Dan is, of course, the lead singer of Imagine Dragons, known for massive hits like Radioactive, Thunder, and Believer.

01:31He grew up Mormon and is now an outspoken ally of the LGBT community.

01:35Despite the awkward today moment, Minka told Entertainment Tonight that she was lucky to have him in her life,

01:41while still being true to herself. Take a look.

01:43You just seem beyond happy. How did you know that this guy was going to change your life?

01:48Uh, I think I changed my life first, you know?

01:52Sometimes you get lucky, but you got to do your own homework first and find your own center.

02:00Wise words.

02:01Minka and Dan first sparked romance rumors in November 2022 after being spotted on a date in L.A.

02:07This was soon after his split with his ex-wife, singer Aja Volkman.

02:11They have four kids together.

02:12Minka and Dan then made it abundantly clear they were together thanks to several PDA moments,

02:17although they mainly kept their relationship out of the spotlight,

02:20which is probably why she bristled in these interviews.

02:23Last year, Dan opened up about their relationship.

02:25Since they were long-distance at first, she gave him a copy of her book,

02:29Tell Me Everything, to learn more about herself.

02:32That'll do it.

02:33You can read that memoir and stream Champagne Problems on Netflix now.
