Jenny McCarthy is reportedly dating actor–and former New Kid–Donnie Wahlberg.

The couple met when Wahlberg appeared on her talk show back in March, and anyone watching could have seen that they hit it off immediately. McCarthy’s eyes nearly popped out of her head when Wahlberg leaned over and started whispering in her ear and then, according to him, “nibbled” a little.

“Now, I want to talk about what happened between Donnie Wahlberg and me,” McCarthy wrote in a blog post. “Let’s just say we visually give “50 Shades of Grey” a run for its money. It gets steamy. I mean like really steamy. Being turned on by a guy is always fun but to have it legitimately happen to you on TV is to be turned back into a 12-year-old. By the time we get into the groundbreaking interview, my face turns fifty shades of RED.”

McCarthy, who dated Jim Carrey for five years before they called it quits in 2010, was most recently linked to football player Brian Urlacher. The couple were seen out and about last year several times, but things ultimately fizzled.
