The 24-year-old's name is Rosalind Ross, who began training as an equestrian vaulter (a sport that combines dance, theater and acrobatics on horseback) at age 9.

Despite her success, Rosalind left the sport behind to pursue a degree in writing, literature and publishing at Emerson College. The newcomer earned a spot on the 2014 Young & Hungry List, which highlights the top 100 on-the-rise writers to hit the Hollywood scene.

But friends say the divorced father of eight is looking to take things slow. "Mel hasn't had the best luck with the ladies," says a pal, "and he's in no rush to turn his relatively new romance into a high-profile affair."
