Chrissy Metz has fallen in love again, and she seems quite happy about it. But this time, she wants to keep her relationship private. The This Is Us star admitted that she is trying to avoid posting about it or talking much about it in public and wishes to keep it just for herself. In her recent interview with US Weekly, she stated:

"And I’m like, yeah, you know what? I think I want to just keep it very private and just enjoy it."

In the past, Chrissy Metz often shared publicly glimpses of her relationships. She posted photos, gave interviews, and even co-authored a book with her former partner. But now, she feels differently. She believes that some things are better when they remain private, to be cherished in peace.

When asked why she is choosing to stay quiet about her relationship, Chrissy responded:

"And what’s the intention of talking about it and sharing it? I am just being very cautious and careful"

Chrissy Metz Wants to Keep It Simple

Chrissy Metz hasn't revealed who her new partner is, but she did share that she feels good and safe, and that is all she wants right now—no big talks, no drama, just simple love. Before this, Chrissy was in a relationship with Bradley Collins for three years. Fans adored them together because they appeared happy. They even wrote a children’s book together. But last year, they broke up, although there was no big fight or drama. They parted ways amicably, each going in different directions, and remain friends to date.

In fact, even after their breakup, they completed the book they started writing together. Chrissy admitted it wasn’t easy, but both stayed kind and committed because they didn’t want to let kids down who were waiting for the book.

They had started writing another book too, before their relationship ended. It was revealed that at that time, things were difficult and that they didn’t know what would happen between them. But writing helped them talk and feel better. Chrissy believes that breakups don’t always have to be angry or sad. One can be kind and care about the other person despite being separated. And that is what she did with Bradley.

Chrissy explained,

“Just because someone’s not your forever person or you’re better friends than you were romantic partners, it’s like [I] don’t completely just, like, kick you out of my life. You still want to be respectful and you know that you cared about them at a certain point in a different way. I’m that person that I want to treat people the way I want to be treated.”

She cares about her kids, stating that they go through hardships too and that they lack the vocabulary to express their feelings.

At this point, she is just happy in her relationship.
