Heathere Matarazzo, the teen star from Welcome to the Dollhouse, is engaged to year-long girlfriend, Carolyn Murphy.

Matarazzo’s publicist, Lisa Jammal, told E! News that it was “love at first sight.” They both proposed to each other, “It was really cute. First Heather proposed to Carolyn, then Carolyn proposed to her.”

Matarazzo got her start as a tormented teen in the hit indie film Welcome to the Dollhouse (1995) and went on to star in mainstream movies like The Princess Diaries (2001) and indie films like Saved! (2004) and Believe in Me (2006). She currently co-stars in Logo’s lesbian comedy Exes & Ohs, and was also recently seen in The L Word and the popular horror movie Hostel II (2007).

Matarazzo came out publicly as a lesbian in 2004, when she was 21.

In a 2006 interview with AfterEllen.com, Matarazzo recalled her first kiss with a girl as a teenager. “We were sitting in my pink room with pink carpeting,” she described. “It was summer and we were sitting Indian-style across from each other and I was so incredibly nervous. And I thought, ‘Yeah, I am definitely gay.’

No date for the wedding has been announced.
