New Girl Stars' Real-Life Romance Sparks!

Lamorne Morris, who starred as Winston Bishop in the sitcom New Girl, has initiated a real-life romantic pursuit of his former co-star Nasim Pedrad. During a recording of 'The Mess Around' podcast, which Morris co-hosts with Hannah Simone, he called Pedrad live on air. Morris directly asked Pedrad if she was available and expressed his desire to date her, moving beyond their existing friendship.

Pedrad, who joined New Girl in 2015 as Winston's partner Aly Nelson, humorously questioned Morris's intentions, asking if he was referring to the past or the present. Morris clarified his interest was current, despite having seen her recently. After some playful back-and-forth about the nature of their past interactions, Pedrad agreed to go on a date with Morris.

Morris enthusiastically accepted her agreement, promising to make time for the date and even joking about bringing a rose and wearing cologne. Pedrad also teased Morris about his dating life, referencing conversations about women he had met on Raya. The call concluded with warm regards between them, leaving Simone astonished by Morris's unconventional yet successful approach to asking for a date.
