Leeza Gibbons, the former host of the talk show bearing her name, said she is getting married, according to People magazine.

Gibbons, 53, said she is marrying Steven Fenton, 40, with whom she has been in a relationship for two years.

“Our energy is the same and we connect through our desire to love our families and friends, serve our communities, and make a difference,” she told People.

Fenton, who is the president of the Beverly Hills Board of Education, proposed to her on the lawn of their home in June, she told the magazine.

Gibbons is the current host of her own radio show, Hollywood Confidential. Before, she co-hosted Entertainment Tonight, Extra, and her own talk show Leeza.

Three and a half years ago, she appeared on Dancing With the Stars and was the third celebrity to be eliminated.

In 2009, she released a book documenting her own mother’s struggle with Alzheimer’s disease, called Take Your Oxygen First: Protecting Your Health and Happiness While Caring for a Love One with Memory Loss. She also started the Leeza Gibbons Memory Foundation charity to raise awareness of the disease.
