Who Is Kelly Dodd's Fiance, Rick Leventhal?

Dodd, 44, split from plastic surgeon Brian Reagan in August, which is when Dodd began seeing Leventhal, 59, a Fox News corespondent. He was previously married to professional poker player Beth Shak, but the two divorced in 2017 after being married less than a year (via Page Six). Leventhal has two children, Veronica, 28, and Shoshanna, 23, with his first ex-wife, Penny Daniels. (via Us Magazine). 

The pair met in the Hamptons at Leventhal's barbecue while Dodd was palling around with RHONY star Ramona Singer (via Bravo). While the two lovebirds live on opposite coasts — Leventhal lives in New York City while Dodd lives in Southern California — it's rumored that Kelly may consider moving to the East Coast to be with her man (via Bravo). 

The New York-based senior correspondent joined Fox News in 1997 and provided live coverage of the killing of Osama bin Laden and has been to dozens of war zones. Leventhal was born in Kentucky, grew up in Maryland, got a BA in Broadcast Journalism at American University, and eventually ended up in the Big Apple (via Hollywood Life).
