Kate Walsh didn't think she'd end up splitting from Alex Young after just 15 months of marriage.

"I don't think anyone gets married thinking that they will get divorced," the Private Practice actress, 41, says in the March issue of Redbook. "We certainly did not.

Remember these nasty Hollywood splits?

"Alex and I still care for each other, and I wish him nothing but the best," she continues. "The silver lining to this, however, is that I have a wonderful family and a great group of friends who really showed their support and encouragement, and for that I am truly grateful."

Do these stars look better after breakup?

The pair separated last November due to irreconcilable differences, according to court papers Young filed.

Walsh says her friends don't judge her for divorcing so quickly.

"I have gone through ups and down, and it's human nature for someone to judge and say, 'Here's what you need to do,'" she says. "But the most truly useful thing to do is to shut up and listen and tell the person that you're there for them unequivocally."

She's resolved to move forward.

"I have always been the girl who keeps on trying. I try! I try!" she says.

Walsh also opens up about being deeply insecure when it comes to dating.

"I second-guess myself all the time. I make a decision and then wonder if I made the wrong choice," she says.

Can you believe these stars dated?

"Sometimes I come off as confident, but really I am a quivering little wharf rat underneath who is radically insecure and deeply in need of love and understanding," she goes on.

    The problem as I see it, is that these celebrities all stay within their circle. I understand why models date rock stars, but if they ventured outside their own little worlds, they would find decent people out there who would relish the idea of being with them. Without all the games. Not everybody is into fame or money. That's why there are pre-numps
