Published
Minka Kelly kept her composure and grace intact when faced with a personal question about her boyfriend during her appearance on “Today with Jenna & Friends.”
The actress made a guest appearance on the show alongside cohost Olivia Munn to discuss her latest romantic comedy film, “Champagne Problems.” The conversation started smoothly until host Jenna Bush Hager steered the discussion towards Kelly’s real-life relationship with Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds, causing a brief moment of awkwardness and hesitation.

“Speaking about the holidays and love in this romcom, you have a very big love in your life right now,” Jenna delicately broached the subject. She then inquired if Kelly would be willing to share more “if you feel comfortable.”
Minka appeared taken aback by the sudden shift in topic, but she maintained her composure. Hager referenced the heartfelt birthday message that Kelly recently shared for Dan, to which Minka responded with a small smile, stating, “It was beautiful. I’m very lucky. He’s a really good guy.” While she seemed to choose her words carefully, she handled the question with poise.
Sensing the slight discomfort, Olivia Munn stepped in with a heartwarming anecdote about working with Reynolds on an Imagine Dragons music video. Her praise for the musician helped lighten the mood, and Minka visibly relaxed. “He’s the best, they’re all the best,” Kelly remarked, opening up more about Reynolds and his bandmates.
Kelly and Reynolds were first linked romantically in November 2022 after being seen together in Los Angeles shortly after his separation from ex-wife Aja Volkman.
