Giada de Laurentiis is allegedly trying to divert the attention from her rumored relationship with Bobby Flay by dating someone new. The Food Network star was recently spotted having an intimate dinner with a mystery man early this week.
According to Radar Online, de Laurentiis seemed to be moving on from her divorce with husband Todd Thompson. The celebrity chef was seen having the time of her life, drinking with her rumored new beau in a posh restaurant. Sources claimed that the two spent the entire night making out while drinking at the bar. De Laurentiis and her new beau was said to go on a full-on PDA, kissing and hugging without a care in the world.
When Flay and his wife Stephanie March filed for divorce, many fans speculated that he and de Laurentiis will immediately start dating. The celebrity chefs have always been linked with one another given their chemistry onscreen. It was said that they were even having an affair behind March's back.
In an interview with Extra, March, however, claimed that she and Flay are just friends. She blamed the tabloids for tainting their friendship, adding that nothing happened between the two of them.
March admitted that she reads and hears rumors about her alleged relationship with Flay but she just chose to ignore them. She added that she was just thankful that her daughter is still too young, adding that she did not want her to be involved in any of this. She added that she has no intention of responding to rumors and instead just wanted to move on with her life.
