Jenna Fischer is engaged! To a guy most of us have probably never heard of, but still, it’s exciting. According to People Magazine, writer Lee Kirk is the lucky guy. Lee propsed to Jenna while they were vacationing in Europe. I hope they weren’t in Paris – that’s the city where Tom Cruise proposed to Katie Holmes. I’ve got my fingers crossed for Amsterdam or Stockholm. Some place unconventional for a proposal. This will be the first marriage for Lee Kirk, and the second marriage for Jenna. She was previously married to director James Gunn. According to People, Lee and Jenna have been together since January 2008, and made their first public outing as a couple at the 2008 Emmys:
While Pam Beesly may be headed down the aisle with Jim Halpert on NBC’s The Office, her real-life alter ego is altar-bound, too – Jenna Fischer is engaged, PEOPLE confirms.
The actress, 35, got engaged to writer Lee Kirk, 37, on June 30 while both were vacationing in Europe.
Although they’ve been dating since January of last year, they stepped out publicly for the first time at the Emmy Awards in September 2008, when Fischer described Kirk to PEOPLE as “my super-cute boyfriend.”
This is the first marriage for Kirk. Fischer was previously married to director James Gunn [they divorced in July 2007].

While I am a big fan of Jenna’s comedic talents, I tend to think people confuse her with her relatively wholesome girl-next-door character on The Office. Throughout this whole post, I’ve nearly typed in “Pam Beesley” like five times, that’s how connected Jenna is with her Office character. I bring this up because I’ve read interviews with Jenna where she comes across as pretty hardcore – she’s got a really dirty sense of humor, and a disregard for maintaining any kind of “good girl” image.
Coincidentally, I’ve always suspected there was something more to her divorce to James Gunn. Regarding her divorce, Jenna said post-split: “It’s sad, but we remain close. My husband got the dog, and I got the cat. But the dog and cat miss each other, so we must have a sleepover one of these days.” Her cat’s name is Andy (cute cat name!) and I really hope Andy gets along with Lee. What am I saying? Lee wouldn’t have made it this far if Andy the cat didn’t give him the seal of approval.

He kinda looks like a really skinny Ross the Intern from The Tonight Show (Jay Leno). Only with blonder hair and bigger teeth. Oh yeah, and hopefully not quite as high pitched a voice.
I have seen her interviewed a few times, to which I have decided I don’t like her very much. She seems a bit full of herself. Love Pam though!
do i spy breast implants? say it’s not so, Pam!
Yeah, Pebbles. I thought they looked new too.
I don’t know about the breast implants but I love that dress. Much more sophisticated and sexy than usual. Kaiser, I don’t understand what you mean about more to her divorce?
The boobs probably came after the divorce. They look great.
I, too, wonder what happened with the previous marriage. Not a lot of down time between her split (9/2007) and the super cute boyfriend (1/2008).
I love her! It does seem a bit sudden, though. My bet is that she’s pregnant. (Would explain the boobs, she has said before they’re all natural.)
Well good luck to her.
Interesting boobs… I too thought boob job from the first photo but the second one makes them look like they just have a ton of make-up on making them look bigger but trishy’s preggy theory also makes sense.
I’m getting the “gay vibe” from this guy …
She is a gorgeous woman. If I were a guy…..whew. I love her!
I have the same boobs in my dresser. It’s called a push up bra. She’s wearing a hot dress so pushing those puppies up is a must.
I don’t think she’s wearing a bra. The underwire would have been visible. I think her dress comes with a built in padding that works as a push up though.
