Jimmy Kimmel has a new girlfriend

It seems that late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel has found love again.

The Jimmy Kimmel Live! host has been dating Molly McNearney, a longtime staffer on his ABC show for several months. Kimmel’s rep confirmed the news.

McNearney, 31, who first joined the show’s staff as an assistant to the executive producer in July 2003, began writing on the show in 2006, and was promoted to her current position as co-head writer in May 2008.

“After Jimmy and Sarah broke up, Molly and Jimmy both found themselves single, and they clicked. They’re really happy together,” reveals a source. Yet, “during work hours” Jimmy and Molly “keep things professional,” adds the source.

The news comes on the heels of David Letterman admitting to having had affairs with female staff members, one of which led to an alleged extortion plot.

The Kimmel-McNearny relationship has been going on several months, according to sources cited by the magazines. Kimmel, 41, and girlfriend of five years, Sarah Silverman, broke up in March. This is the first woman Kimmel has officially dated since Silverman ended their on-and-off relationship seven months ago. Kimmel separated from his wife Gina in 2002 after 14 years of marriage.
