Ross later married Brianna Deutsch in 2015 before the pair quietly split in 2022.
Asked if he would ever remarry, he said: 'Never say never again. How about that? I'm such a great believer in love. It's certainly not one of those things, having been married twice before…
'Either I'm really bad at it or I could be really good at it in the future, I don't know. It depends which way you look at it: The glass is half full or the glass is half empty. But no, no, no, I'm a great believer in love.
'I feel very fortunate with Bridget that I've found someone who is just absolutely brilliant in every way, so I'm very very fortunate.'
He was then asked how long they'd been together as he confirmed: 'Nearly three years. So yeah. So we're very very lucky.'

Lateasha ‘Sweet Tea’ Lunceford Leaving Bravo’s ‘Married To Medicine’ After 2 Seasons liennhi
Lateasha “Sweet Tea” Lunceford is ending her time on Married to Medicine after two seasons, Deadline has learned.
The Bravo star took to social media to share that she was not returning to the reality series, but the decision to leave was seemingly not hers.
“It definitely was foul,” she replied to a fan on Instagram who said they were glad they were not returning to M2M because it was “foul” for her. “And I was just going to say… I really wanted to leave it to my fans to figure out what was going on because know that I’m not a quitter.”
She continued, “Never ever been a quitter. And I never ran away from anybody. It just is what it is. There are better things in store for me. That platform was what it was at the moment and I think God has something better, and I’m going down the right path.”
Lunceford joined Married to Medicine in Season 10 as Dr. Greg Lunceford’s wife. Dr. Greg was formerly married to OG star Quad Webb, which created drama from the star as Lunceford clashed with Webb. Lunceford got married to Dr. Greg during her first season and, during her second season, continued to clash with Webb.
In March 2024, Dr. Heavenly Kimes suggested that Married to Medicine was to start filming the following month. Another M2M star not returning for Season 11 is Phaedra Parks, who moved on to The Real Housewives of Atlanta following Kenya Moore’s exit.
