TheGroundhog Daystar shared that she’s “in the process” of getting on the app at the moment after being out of the dating game for some time.
“I’ve never done it before and I haven’t really been dating,” she said, adding with a laugh, “I didn’t put the energy into it, I’ve been so happy working and doing other things and now I’m going to focus on trying to date — mostly to do research for my new show, really.”
Hudson, 41, then asked MacDowell ifshe’d been on any dates recently, which led her to open up about a disastrous dating story.
“The last date I went on was kind of a catastrophe,” she said. “And I think that was part of the reason I gave up. The first thing he did was we were going up to this museum and he looked at me, got really close to my face, and he goes, ‘You know, you’re beautiful for your age.’ "
She continued, “I’m not usually really quick on my feet like this, but I said to him, ‘Why not just say I’m beautiful?’ The date did not go well after that. That was my last date. It’s been a long time. It’s rather pathetic, to tell you the truth — but honestly, I’ve been really happy. It hasn’t been my priority; other things have mattered more to me, and I haven’t really been lonely.”

“But I want to play romantic roles, so I think I need to do a little homework,” she added. “So I remember how to be romantic because it’s been so long I don’t know if I’ll remember what to do!”
MacDowell is mom to daughtersMargaret QualleyandRainey Qualley, plus son Justin Qualley, with ex-husbandPaul Qualley, whom she divorced in 1999.
“I just spentChristmaswith her. I’ve never had somebody look into me and see my soul like that. It was definitely a soul-to-soul connection,” she told theTodayshow of her granddaughter with a smile.
MacDowell was also married to businessman and her former classmate Rhett Hartzog for nearly three years. The pairtied the knot in November 2001beforedivorcing in 2004.
