Much of the gossip about Bobby Flay surrounds his divorce from third wife, Stephanie March, and his relationship with Food Network Star co-host Giada De Laurentiis, but they don’t end there.
He’s dating Giada De Laurentiis
Possibly the most well-known and enduring rumor about Flay is that he’s dating Food Network Star co-host Giada De Laurentiis and that their relationship was going on while they each were married to other people. De Laurentiis has denied the rumors.
He and Giada are engaged
Allegedly, in 2015, De Laurentiis got tired of carrying on a secret relationship with Flay and demanded a ring, so the two were planning a secret wedding.
He was AWOL when his wife was sick
Flay and Law and Order SVU actress Stephanie March had been married for 10 years when they divorced in July 2015. March alleged that when her appendix burst in February 2015, Flay didn’t show up to the hospital until the day after, and he left before she was discharged.
He missed his wedding anniversary
Also on the list of rumors in regards to Flay and March’s marriage: Flay apparently skipped his 10th wedding anniversary to attend a food-and-wine festival in Florida.
He’s a bully
Flay has been accused of “bullying through economic warfare” by March when he canceled the couples’ credit cards — credit cards March was using for food and pet supplies.
He had an affair with his assistant
Flay has been accused of having numerous affairs during his marriage to March, including one that lasted three years with his assistant, Elyse Tirrell. Flay and his team have neither confirmed nor dispelled the rumor.
He had an affair with January Jones
March claimed that Flay slept with actress January Jones in early 2010. Suspicion about Flay and Jones’ relationship began when Jones had a car accident in 2010 and called Flay to help her. Flay was apparently watching a basketball game at the time of Jones’ phone call and had no idea why she’d decided to call him.
He’s the father of January Jones’ baby
January Jones has never revealed the identity of her son Xander’s father, saying in 2013, “I knew I would be raising my son alone.” Flay and Jones’ alleged affair apparently got serious in 2010 when Jones was already pregnant, and March suspected that Flay was the father of Jones’ baby.
He’s dating Chelsea Handler
Handler and Flay were spotted having lunch together in Santa Monica, California, in early 2016, and according to a witness, the pair looked “flirty.”
He pilfered money
According to TMZ, Flay bought March a racehorse named Dad’s Crazy for their 4th anniversary back in 2009. The horse was a huge winner, and March claimed that although it was registered in her name, Flay kept the purse money, sold the horse and pocketed the earnings.
He’s dating Helene Yorke
As of 2016, Flay is rumored to be dating actress Helene Yorke. The two have been photographed together looking like quite the happy couple.
