Téa Leoni Is Dating ‘Madam Secretary’ Co-Star Tim Daly, CBS Star Moving On After Split From Former Husband David Duchovny

It appears "Madam Secretary" star Téa Leoni is not afraid to mix business with pleasure.

The actress is reportedly dating her co-star Tim Daly, who plays her husband on the new CBS political drama. News of Leoni's new romance comes six months after she and husband David Duchovny filed for divorce.

"It's relatively new," a source reportedly told E! News. Leoni shares two children with her ex Duchovny, 15-year-old daughter Madelaine West and 12-year-old son Kyd Miller. Meanwhile, Daly has two children from a previous marriage as well, son Sam, 30, and daughter Emelyn, 25.

Leoni, 48, and Daly, 58, actually have a connection that predates their on-screen marriage on "Madam Secretary." The pair attended the same prep and boarding school, the Putney School, in Vemont, although they graduated 10 years apart.

Daly, who TV fans likely know from former shows "Private Practice" and "Wings", talked about his unexpected connection to Leoni back in July. "We had a few of the same teachers, which is really crazy," he told E! News at a Television Critics Association event for "Madam Secretary."

Daly also called his Leoni, "a good kid" at the time.

Leoni can now add dating to the list of things she's balancing, including starring in a television series and raising her kids with her ex.

Leoni and Duchovny had two public break-ups before officially deciding to end their 17-year marriage. The "Madam Secretary" star talked about her current relationship with Duchovny in a September issue of Parade magazine.

"Listen, David gave me the two greatest gifts on the planet; I don't know how I could ever hate him," she said. "We've always loved each other, and we adore these kids. ... I'm not playing stupid-I understand feelings can get hurt and things can get icky. We've had our moments like that. But these kids are too important, and he feels the same way, I know it. He's a good guy."
