New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo & Sandra Lee Split After 14 Years

Governor Andrew Cuomo and Sandra Lee have split after being together for well over a decade.

The 53-year-old Food Network star and the 61-year-old Governor of New York confirmed the news in a joint statement on Wednesday (September 25).

“Over the recent past, we have realized that our lives have gone in different directions and our romantic relationship has turned into a deep friendship. We will always be family and are fully supportive of each other and dedicated to the girls. Our personal lives remain personal and there will be no further comment,” they said.

The New York Post reported in May that they living separately, but Andrew insisted at the time that they were still together.

The two began a relationship in the fall of 2005, and moved in together in 2011. Andrew has three daughters from a previous relationship.
