Milo Ventimiglia has a message for any fans upset about his marriage to Jarah Mariano.

During the Thursday, January 25, episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Ventimiglia, 46, made a rare comment about his wife.

“[I’m] very happy. [She’s a] wonderful woman,” he said before discussing how Mariano’s last name is similar to his former Gilmore Girls character, Jess Mariano. “It’s a very easy connection to make.”

Host Jimmy Kimmel also pointed out that many fans were heartbroken that Ventimiglia is now off the market, to which he responded, “I’m sure there’s a few broken hearts. Female and male, I don’t know. Maybe? The point is there’s a lot of life and there’s a lot of Milo Ventimiglias out there.”
