TV CHEF SANDRA LEE SELLING HOME SHE SHARES WITH NY GOV. ANDREW CUOMO
Rumors of a breakup started last May when Lee put the home she shared with Cuomo in the New York suburbs on the market.
After a Page Six column reported breakup rumors at the time, Lee told the New York Post on Facebook to "knock it off" and said they're "very much together."
The couple began dating in 2005 and Lee often functioned as New York’s de facto first lady at official events.
Cuomo has three grown daughters from his marriage to Kerry Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy’s daughter, which ended in 2005.
Lee works for Food Network and is a contributor for "'Good Morning America." She is known for her "semi-homemade" approach. She is also a cookbook author and cancer screening advocate since she battled the disease in 2015.
