Chrissy Metz Opts for Privacy in New Relationship
“I think that when you keep trying things and expecting different results, that’s called the definition of insanity,” Metz, 44, exclusively told Us Weekly while promoting her second children’s book, When I Talk to God, I Talk About Feelings. “And I’m like, yeah, you know what?
