"I'm not [enjoying the single life]," O'Donnell, 47, told Usmagazine.com at Rosie's Broadway Extravaganza in NYC on Monday. "But on we grow, so to speak."
The comedienne and Kelli Carpenter, 42, wed in 2004, but earlier this month she revealed that Carpenter moved out two years ago. She had said they kept it a secret for the sake of their children -- son Parker, 14, Chelsea, 12, Blake, 9, and Vivienne, 6.
