Zachary Quinto dating Jonathan Groff of 'Glee'

Zachary Quinto, who publicly came out as gay last October, confirmed in an interview posted Wednesday that he is dating "Glee" star Jonathan Groff.

Former "Heroes" villain Quinto, who plays Spock in J.J. Abrams' rebooted "Star Trek" franchise, told Out magazine, "I'm incredibly happy, I'm incredibly lucky" regarding his relationship with Groff, 27, who played Jesse St. James, former boyfriend of Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) on the Fox high-school musical series. He now appears in the Starz drama "Boss."

Quinto, 35, said he had found himself "in a pattern of being attracted to people who were somehow unavailable" and that therapy had helped him. "I had to do a lot of work on the couch to really get to a place where I was able to show up to a relationship with someone who was actually capable of being in one -- and that took a lot of trial and error. And I'm still working on all that stuff -- that will never stop."
