Giada De Laurentiis has a rule about dating chefs
As reported by The Netline, De Laurentiis doesn't like the idea of being romantically involved with other chefs. While it's true that she is close to Flay and the pair have been good friends since they first met in 2004, they have never been together. Fans have often felt otherwise because of the fantastic chemistry between the two. De Laurentiis addressed this in a conversation with Andy Cohen when she said, "Well, we're very good friends. We've worked together for many years, but I don't think that's ever going to happen because I'm smarter than that."
However, she acknowledged that Flay is a special friend and is someone she can count on without hesitation. She said, "I think that Bobby is one of those people that if you are his friend, he has your back forever and he will stand up for you." Plus, De Laurentiis is believed to be dating television producer, Shane Farley. Well, fans can still dream, huh?
