According to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, the Academy Award-winning actress offered up some personal assistance in the romance department.

"She said 'I need a moment' when she saw me, and I was like 'You? I need a moment!'" Beauvais added of Roberts, 54.

In 2020, she wrote a blog for PEOPLE about dating as a single mother and noted that one key factor in being open to a relationship again was releasing anxiety.

"About a year ago, I decided to take myself off of the market, at least for the time being. Once I made this choice, I felt an immense sense of relief. I felt no pressure to fill the void of a romantic relationship with somebody new. I just wanted to work on myself and be the best mom I could be," she wrote.

Beauvais continued, "By taking that anxiety out of my life, it helped me feel completely relaxed, which has gotten me to a place of being open to meeting someone. While I'm not rushing to get back into another relationship, my heart is now much more open to it."
