News about Peter Zurkuhlen

Tommy Dorfman and her ex-husband Peter Zurkuhlen are approaching the end of their divorce process. People announced on Tuesday that the 30-year-old actress and the 34-year-old tech company's founder had both requested a stipulated decision of dissolution. The lawsuit, which comes nine months after Zurkuhlen filed for divorce, came after Dorfman's statement in August that she had become engaged to a woman.

Tommy Dorfman is a fiancée! On August 15, the "13 Reasons Why" actress announced the inclusion of her on Rachel Bilson's "Broad Ideas" podcast, in which she also discussed how booking the coveted Netflix series postponed her transition. Dorfman casually mentioned that her "fiancée" assisted her at first and led her through the process. Although she didn't reveal her partner's identity, she referred to her as the individual she wants to spend the remainder of her life with. Dorfman, a woman who recently celebrated her 30th birthday, shared her partner as the "first woman [she] has] been with in a long time." "It's confirming that it's safe," she said of her dating. "But also not secure because being in love is so frightening." It's both uncomfortable and painful. All the universal feelings of being in love I suspect are likely to be the same." Although she knew she was interested in women since high school, she hadn't really investigated these feelings. "This is the year that I'm going to go on some dates with girls and feel confident about it," she told herself before meeting her new partner.

Tommy Dorfman announced on Monday that she is engaged, although she gave few details about her new fiancée. During an appearance on Rachel Bilson's podcast Broad Thought, the 30-year-old 13 Reasons Why actor, who appeared briefly as a gay man before coming out as a transgender person, shared her news. Even though she had previously dated men, the actress declared that her fiancée is a "cis woman."

Tommy Dorfman, who openly introduced herself as a trans woman, is sharing how her Hollywood experience has had an effect on her gender identity. In an interview with Time in July 2021, the "13 Reasons Why" alum, who starred in Netflix's original series from 2017-2020, revealed that she had been "informally identifying and living as a woman." She became more vocal about her acting debut and its impact on her transition on the "Broad Ideas with Rachel Bilson" podcast on Aug. 15. "I was just trying to know [myself] in the early years of working," Dorfman said. "I believe if I hadn't booked the job ['13 Reasons Why'], I might've started transitioning a lot sooner." I think because my work was so linked to my body and appearance, or whatever I had been identifie as, it stymied some of my development and some of my maturation in the mid-20s. I also believe I made decisions that were not in accordance with who I was or what I wanted, but out of fear."
