In the wake of rumors they were dating, Kat Dennings and singer Josh Groban made their first official appearance together as a couple at the Carousel of Hope Ball in October 2014. Interviewed at the event by "Extra," Groban revealed that they'd met through her "2 Broke Girls" co-star Beth Behrs, with whom he'd become friendly after they met on a talk show. "She played matchmaker," Groban said of Behrs.
Groban opened up about their romance during an appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," explaining how their shared status as nerds cemented their bond. "Humor is such a huge thing for me, so the fact that we could talk about 'Monty Python' and all sorts of weird other things, I was like, 'Okay, yeah, we're on the same page,'" Groban said.
Behrs, whose matchmaking skills brought the two together, gushed about what a great couple her sitcom co-star and the "You Raise Me Up" singer made. "They're in this crazy business, they're both very calm and mellow and wonderful," she told People. "And he treats her like a princess, and it's amazing." Sadly, it was not to last. In 2016, the two decided to call it quits after nearly two years of dating. "It was a mutual breakup," a source revealed to E! News. "They are still friends and care about each other, but it's not the right time for them now as a couple."
