Never one to mince words, Fran Drescher is a straight shooter.
“The Nanny” star, 62, said she’s doing just fine in her single life and can get what she needs whenever she pleases.
“You know I’m kind of dating myself and it’s going quite well. I’m not dating,” she told Page Six at the NBCUniversal New York Press Junket on Thursday. “I have my gay ex-husband who I love and he fulfills a lot of needs. I have someone on the side who is a friend with benefits.”

“It’s delightful and delicious but I’ve got a big life,” she told the outlet.
The 62-year-old said she’s happiest with the fact she can let go of her inhibitions with her “friend” and voice all of her desires.

“[We’re] very comfortable with each other and we have our routine,” she said. “It’s always the same experience. We really don’t go out, we don’t go to restaurants, we don’t date. What we do, we do great.”
Drescher maintained: “He comes over, we hang out and we do the hot tub and I make us some food and we lay in bed and maybe we’ll watch tennis together, whatever it is or a movie,” she said. “We talk; we have good conversations.”
