Kristen Wiig Happy Living Rockstar Life With Strokes Star

Kristen Wiig, the former Saturday Night Live alum and star of 'Bridesmaids', says she is loving life with her new boyfriend, The Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti.

The actress, 38, opened up about her relationship in the August issue of Marie Claire magazine, saying, "I am shyer than most people think.I will say that I'm happier than I've ever been and I feel very lucky right now". When pushed on what's making her so happy, Wiig dished, "Where I am now.Who he is. Those are the two big ones". Though the actress kept quiet on the details of her relationship to the drummer, she did speak in depth about why she left Saturday Night Live - a show that made her name in Hollywood, saying, "I know a lot of people probably assume, 'Oh, she's leaving because she is going to be doing movies now and things like that,' which I will be.But I just always knew it was going to be seven and that was it. I think maybe if I were 22, I could see myself staying a little bit, but it just felt like the right time". Kristen married the actor Hayes Hargrove in 2005, though the couple split four years later. Moretti is the former boyfriend of Reese Witherspoon, and recently ended his relationship with Little Joy band-mate Binki Shapiro.

As for Wiig's forthcoming movie roles - she's currently working on three major projects, including 'The Secret of Life of Walter Mitty', with Ben Stiller and 'The Comedian' with ROBERT DE NIRO.

Reese Witherspoon? I think you need to hire me as a journalist. It was not Reese Witherspoon. It was Drew Barrymore.
