Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg are dating, according to reports, making for what can best be called a steamy match in ’90s heaven.

Sparks flew between them in March when New Kids on the Block and Blue Bloods star Wahlberg, 43, made an appearance on her self-titled VH1 talk show.

The duo provocatively sucked on red lollipops while McCarthy, 40, asked “Do you talk dirty while you’re having sex?” “I do,” replied Wahlberg, 43.

“You do, but some guys do it wrong,” she replied.

“Yeah, I don’t do it wrong,” he said seductively.

 

McCarthy referenced the red-hot appearance in a blog she posted in advance.

“Let’s just say we visually give 50 Shades of Grey a run for its money,” she writes.

“It gets steamy. I mean like really steamy. Being turned on by a guy is always fun but to have it legitimately happen to you on TV is to be turned back into a 12-year-old.”

“By the time we get into the interview, my face turns fifty shades of RED.”

Looks like things have worked out pretty well since!

Wahlberg has two sons from his nine-year marriage to Kim Fey, which ended in divorce in 2008. McCarthy has one son, Evan, from a previous relationship.
