The ER vet revealed at the Elton John Oscar-viewing party in Beverly Hills two weeks ago that she is engaged to her girlfriend.
'We're pretty happy, considering we just got engaged,' she told Entertainment Tonight.
'So, this is sort of our fun time out in Hollywood for the first time since we've been engaged.'

The two posed arm in arm on the carpet while also gazing at each other lovingly at one of the biggest parties of the year.
Maria wore a long cut out dress over a pair of diaphanous pants with silver heels.
Dominique had on a black coat over a black cropped jacket with matching cigarette pants, spectator shoes and a cap.
No engagement rings could be seen.
The lovebirds became engaged when on vacation in Paris in late December, according to the site.
'It was very surprising, but meant to be. It's about time. I've finally grown up enough to get married. I think we just light each other up,' said Maria.

In 2013 she wrote about love in a New York Times essay. She was dating Clare Munn at the time; they were together from 2011 until 2016.
'I didn’t think of it as romantic or sexual,' she wrote. 'She was one of the most beautiful, charming, brilliant and funny people I had ever met.
'But it didn’t occur to me that we could perhaps choose to love each other romantically.' She also said, 'Love is love.'
