It's so destructive. You get one life and that's an awful lot of time to spend on something that's not working.'"She added:“I don't know whether it's being slightly a bit Catholic, some of that stuff still being in me was just that idea of not getting divorced. You don't get divorced. Just stay in it. It's so much harder to go through all that, to go through a divorce.”As they both moved on after the divorce, even Horgan found a new partner; she revealed it on Dinner's on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson.

I sort of got off on it. And then I was like, ‘Oh, no, that's not good.’”Sharon Horgan added:“We met years ago doing a film together, and then, you know, became friendly. And then a good few years later — this wasn't on purpose, by the way — I cast him in Bad Sisters.”Sharon mentioned that she didn't expect to fall in love again:“It’s different when you’re my age. Being single again at my age is kind of a whole thing.”Sharon Horgan hasn't provided any more details about her new partner. Stay tuned to Soap Central for more information.
