Are Gretchen Rossi and Slade Smiley married? While the couple became engaged several years ago, Rossi recently revealed that they have no immediate plans to wed.

During a new interview, the former Real Housewives of Orange County star revealed that she and Smiley are happy with their relationship as it stands. According to her, they prefer to focus on starting a family rather than throwing themselves a mega wedding.

“We’re really content. We’re really happy,” Rossi explained to Us Weekly magazine on Feb. 28. “I think that one day we definitely get married, but right now we just really are focused on starting a family."

“There’s definitely been a lot of days that I’ve struggled with my emotions and I struggled with is ‘Being with Slade the right thing?’” Rossi continued. “When you love somebody that much, even if that means letting them go or letting them go down a different path to have what it is that they think will ultimately think will make them happy, that’s what true love is."

While Rossi admitted to wondering if Smiley was the right man for her, she now realizes that being with him is what she truly wants. She now realizes that being with Smiley means more to her than figuring out whether or not they will have children, either biologically or otherwise.

Bouncing Back From A Failed Pregnancy

In the years since leaving The Real Housewives of Orange County, Rossi has been doing her best to conceive a child. However, after attempting to get pregnant through in-vitro fertilization years ago, she decided to call it quits with the process for three years. Then, once she got back to a place of being mentally ready to try again, she embarked on another round of IVF at a different medical facility.

This time around, Rossi says that after struggling to cope with the IVF process years ago, she's now feeling much more confident and excited about her future family.

As for her recent return to The Real Housewives of Orange County, which was filmed in 2017, Rossi said it was fun to reconnect with her former co-stars, including Lydia McLaughlin and Vicki Gunvalson. As she explained, she and the two ladies get along great and she's also friends with Peggy Sulahian. As for her relationship with Tamra Judge, Rossi and the fitness buff remain at odds.
