After initially giving him an ultimatum and saying she wanted a relationship and not a “hang out” arrangement, Channing took three days to make a decision.

"He said he had the 'chance to be free' and he couldn't stop thinking about me," a laughing Jenna told the TV host. "He’s going to kill me for this…he has [on] underwear, a sombrero and Ugg boots, and he’s like, ‘Let’s do this’!”

“I called an [assistant] over and was like “He’s in my room,” Jenna giggles. “He comes to set and everyone [applauded].”

Despite the rather cringey beginnings, the couple have been together ever since – tying the knot in 2009 and becoming parents to daughter Everly in 2013.
